This assessment provides statistical probability and mathematical interpretation based on validated clinical equations. It is not a diagnostic tool.

Scientific Context

Calculate the ratio of total cholesterol to HDL ('good') cholesterol to understand your cardiac risk.

Mathematical Formula

Total / HDL Ratio

Behind the Math

Lipid ratios gained clinical prominence after the Framingham Heart Study, which identified that the ratio of total cholesterol to HDL was a superior predictor of heart disease than isolated numbers.

Expert Tip

Increasing your healthy fats (Omega-3s) and engaging in aerobic exercise are the fastest ways to improve your HDL levels, which will naturally lower this risk ratio.
