In the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland, the average cholesterol ratio is around 5.7mmol/l. Medical research suggests that an ideal cholestoral is at or below 5mmol/l, making the average British citizen's cholesterol .7mmol/l higher than the recommended amount. You should only really begin to worry, unless advised otherwise by a medical practioner, if your cholesterol is 6.4mmol/l or higher (which places you in the high end of the Moderate region). Anything above 7.8mmol/l is a dangerously high level.
