New research shows cholesterol metrics commonly used to gauge heart disease risk are not equally predictive for Black and white people.

High-Density Lipoprotein (HDL), which is often referred to as the 'good cholestrol', was perhaps overrated by scientists, for its ability to predict cardiovascular disease risk among adults of various racial and ethnic backgrounds.

A National Institutes of Health-supported study found that high-density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol, often called the "good cholesterol," may not be as effective as scientists once believed in uniformly predicting cardiovascular disease risk among adults of different racial and ethnic backgrounds.
