TC- 173
HDL- 34
Triglycerides- 571 |
My HDL was 39 and my TRI's were 174 back in November. I've been advised on this board to eat avacodo's and use olive oil (extra virgin), and more exercise to raise my HDL, My Tri's are high I believe, because I was on a low fat diet, and ate more pasta. I don't do any baked goods at all. So watch your carbohydrates, that should help. A glass of red wine will also help your HDL. I get re-tested in March so I will see then if what I'm doing now did help.
