ABSTRACT:
A method is provided for measuring the net HDL cholesterol in the blood. The LDL and VLDL moieties are precipitated out and the remaining cholesterol content of the supernatant is measured. The free cholesterol content of the supernatant is separately measured and substracted from the total to obtain net HDL cholesterol. This value serves as a useful indicator for diagnosing vascular disease. A diet supplement and method for raising serum HDL is provided.
