A member asked:
What type of exersie can raise hdl cholesterol faster. what food can raise hdl cheolestrol.thanks.?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
See below.: Exercise, weight loss, smoking cessation and monounsaturated fatty acids can raise hdl. Beta blockers, benzodiazepines, and androgens can lower hdl. I don't know that there is any haste to raising your hdl. Gemfibrozil and estrogen replacement can also raise hdl. Several major studies trying to raise HDL with medications have not demonstrated benefit.
