Hey everyone! Wondering about some labs. Doc says cholesterol is high and bilirubin also. I am an athlete, 30 years old, 5'9 165lbs low body fat %. I did an 8 mile run and some weights about 24h before the test. However I also drink alcohol regularly. 1-2 drinks every other day and 4-6 1 day a week. I eat a high fibre diet and exercise daily. I am unsure of how to interpret liver panel as well as cholesterol given HDL and ratio of hdl to ldl.

Albumin 5.0 ref 3.5-5.2

Globulin 2.3 ref 1.7-3.7

Ratio 2.2

Gfr 116 ref >60

Bilirubin total 1.4 ref <1.2

Alk phos 62 ref 40-156

Ast 32 ref <40

Alt 32 ref <41

Cholesterol total 210 ref <200

HDL chol direct 73 ref >40

Triglycerides 76 ref <150

Ldl 122 ref <100

Non hdl cholesterol 137 ref <130

Chol/hdl ratio 2.9 ref <7.4

Ldl/hdl ratio 1.7 ref <356

Any help would be greatly appreciated! Thanks very much.
