Explanation:

HDL (high - density lipoprotein) is often referred to as "good" cholesterol. It helps remove cholesterol from the arteries and transport it back to the liver for processing and excretion. LDL (low - density lipoprotein) is "bad" cholesterol as it can deposit cholesterol in the arteries, increasing the risk of heart disease. A high ratio of LDL to HDL (option C) is bad. Having more cholesterol (option A) in general is not good as it can lead to health problems. Having more LDL (option B) is also bad.

Answer:

D. more HDL
