You can do the following-- stop smoking (if you smoke). Smoking lowers your hdl, (?good?) cholesterol level. Change the way you eat. Low-fat, low-cholesterol eating benefits all your lipid levels. Lose weight if necessary. Maintain healthy lifestyle start exercising. Nuts, such as almonds, pistachios, and walnuts, contain high amounts of unsaturated fat or ?good? fats, which increase high-density lipoprotein (hdl) and lower low-density lipoprotein (ldl).
