Hi There

After going through your query I understand your concern.

I would like to tell you that in this report Serum LDL and Triglycerides are on higher side that needs to be managed at this age otherwise can a reason for the block arteries and can lead to life threatening diseases.

Lifestyles modification is advisable for her that includes
- lower dietary salt intake ( if she is hypertensive)
- no fried or junk food
- high fiber diet
- brisk walk for 40 min daily

Follow this lifestyle for 3 months and then repeat Lipid Profile again.
For a healthy lipid Profile we nee your LDL
Hopefully this will answer your query.

Kind Regards
