I'm not diabetic, but I've noticed my cholesterol levels seem a bit off. My LDL is at 119, HDL is 36, VLDL is 58, triglycerides are 288, and my total cholesterol is 212. The total cholesterol to HDL ratio is 6.06, and the LDL to HDL ratio is 3.41. Could you suggest some ways to boost my HDL and bring down my VLDL and triglyceride levels? I'm a bit concerned and would appreciate any advice you have.
To increase HDL and lower VLDL and triglycerides, consider the following lifestyle changes and dietary modifications: exercise regularly (aim for 150 minutesweek of moderate-intensity aerobic exercise); lose weight if overweight; quit smoking; reduce saturated and trans fats intake; increase omega-3 fatty acids (found in fatty fish, flaxseeds, and walnuts); consume more soluble fiber (found in oats, barley, fruits, and vegetables); and limit dietary cholesterol and added sugars;
