Cholesterol, LDL And HDL Levels Abnormal. Should I Take Vitamin K2 Supplement?
Hello, I m reading vitamin K2 is good for the heart. I got my cholesterol checked. My total was 241. HDL 65 LDL 150. My doctor was too concerned due to the fact that my HDL was high. I m 33 years old. What is your opinion? And I would like to add this supplement. I take a mulit vitamin now with a vitamin D3 supplement. My thyroid was removed in 2007 due to papillary cancer.

Hi, HDL is a good cholesterol. LDL is bad cholesterol. why should your doctor think so much about your high HDL cholesterol not clear to me. your blood pressure to be checked regularly. according to LDL cholesterol and HDL/LDL and blood pressure treatment will be given. anyway do not forget to keep contact with your oncologist.
