Based on my knowledge base, here are the general guidelines for cholesterol and triglyceride levels:

- HDL (High-Density Lipoprotein): Known as "good" cholesterol. A level of 60 milligrams per deciliter (mg/dL) or higher is considered protective against heart disease. Your HDL level of 68 mg/dL is good.
- LDL (Low-Density Lipoprotein): Known as "bad" cholesterol. A normal LDL level is less than 100 mg/dL. Your LDL level of 64 mg/dL is within the normal range.
- Triglycerides: A normal triglyceride level is less than 150 mg/dL. Your triglyceride level of 79 mg/dL is within the normal range.

Your levels appear to be within healthy ranges. However, it's always best to consult with your healthcare provider for personalized advice.
