Do these: Avoid red meat , yellow part of the egg, butter and other foods rich in cholesterol. Avoid excess calories and exercise to decrease the bed cholesterol and the increase the good cholesterol. If you can not manage it with what i said then taking pills would be the way to go if you do not worry if you may have to deal with the side effect of taking pills such as Atorvastatin.

Diet: Without resorting to prescription drugs, exercise and dietary changes include reduction of red meat and high-sugar foods and drinks (e.g., sugar-sweetened beverages, foods/drinks with high-fructose corn syrup). Supplements that *may* slightly help include fish oil, red yeast rice, certain soluble fibers (psyllium, pectin, wheat dextrin, and oat products), & plant sterols and stanols.
