Depends on why : Saturated fats will raise HDL cholesterol. Fish oils, to a smaller extent will also raise HDL cholesterol (when triglycerides are high, the reason may be that as tg's go down, HDL goes up). In addition, for those overweight and pre-diabetic or Insulin resistant a diet reduced in simple carbohydrates and refined sugars can improve the HDL level as tg's go down. Think heart healthy.
