A member asked:
My hdl was 25 and is decreasing with time. what is causing this decrease?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Low HDL cholesterol.: Regular cardiovascular exercise and a diet rich in omega 3 fatty acids (fish, flax) will help to increase HDL cholesterol, so the opposite may lower this helpful and protective HDL subtype.
