For age 70 that is fine!!!
Use a statin and it will go up. Because Statins harden the plaque into calcium. That is better because it is not loose and causing blockages…

The development of arterial atherosclerosis may occur when deposits of cholesterol and plaque accumulate at a tear in the inner lining of an artery. As the deposits harden and occlude the arterial lumen, blood flow to distant tissues decreases and a clot may become lodged, completely blocking the artery.
