Normal values for serum levels of total cholesterol, and of low-density and high-density lipoprotein cholesterol from a longitudinal study of children from birth to two years of age, and from cross-sectional studies of four-year-old children, schoolchildren aged from eight to 18 years, and the young adult parents of the two-year-old children are reported.
