What Normal Cholesterol Levels should a Teenager have? I have a 13 year old boy with normal cholesterol levels of 211 for total cholesterol and an LDL cholesterol reading of 149. He is not overweight (his BMI is 21, which is “healthy” for his age and gender according to the CDC) and leads a very active lifestyle -he plays organized sport all year round, loves to bike ride, skateboard, swim, snow ski, etc. He eats healthier than most adults I know – he likes most veggies, fish, etc.
