Serum lab levels within the desirable level would indicate the teaching was effective; they include a total cholesterol level of less than 200, an HDL cholesterol level of higher than 40, an LDL cholesterol level of less than 129, and a triglyceride level of less than 50 . Weight loss is also a positive outcome.
