Question: Bad cholesterol in teenage girls?

I'm a very active 15 year old girl. I wouldn't say that I eat badly...I guess I eat pretty well And I have a family history of high cholesterol. I just got mine tested and my good cholesterol is high but my bad cholsterol is 170 which I think is pretty high. Is this bad I don't understand how I can be so fit yet have such high cholesterol

Answers:

Normal levels:
HDL 50-60 or more.
LDL 100-129
Triglicerides below 150
total cholesteral 100-130

Get more fiber in your diet, 30 mg per day is ideal.
Take a 81mg aspirin every day.
Don't smoke.
Have a diet consisting mostly of non meat foods...
