Low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL, or "bad" cholesterol) can form plaque in your arteries, leading to high blood pressure and even a heart attack. Doctors consider LDL cholesterol levels as borderline high when they reach between 200 and 239 mg per deciliter (dL) of blood, and they deem anything over 240 mg/dL excessively high, which doubles your chances of heart attack.
