Physiological Reference Ranges

The ranges below represent standard adult physiological values. Your laboratory's printed reference range always takes precedence.

Adults (general)

0.55 – 1.2 g/L

Adult females

0.55 – 1.15 g/L

Adult males

0.6 – 1.2 g/L

Common alternative units:
mg/dL(×0.01 g/L)

What does a low result mean?

A low level is an outstanding marker indicating a minimal count of circulating atherogenic particles.

What does a high result mean?

A slightly higher level encourages increasing soluble dietary fiber, routine cardio, and moderating saturated fats.

Questions ready for your doctor

Bring these questions to your next consultation to discuss with your healthcare practitioner:

  • Does this provide a clearer measure of cardiovascular risk than standard LDL?
  • What ApoB to ApoA1 ratio should we aim for?
  • What everyday lifestyle modifications help moderate this figure?
