The Low density lipoprotein cholesterol calculation is made simple using this online LDL cholesterol calculator which works based on the friedewald formula. It provides an estimation of LDL cholesterol for most fasting specimens. The optimal ratio is less than 3.5-to-1. LDL cholesterol lower than 100 mg per dL (2.6 mmol/L) is ideal. Enter the Total Cholesterol, HDL Cholesterol and Triglycerides in this calculator to find the resultant value.

A person has High Density Lipoprotein Cholesterol (HDL) of 27 mg/dL, Triglycerides of 8 mg/dL and total Cholesterol of 30 mg/dL. Calculate LDL Cholesterol?
Low Density Lipoprotein Cholesterol = 30 - 27 - (8 / 5)
= 1.4 mg/dL
