You can try dietary modification. Reduce your intake of carbohydrates and saturated fats. If you are even mildly overweight, losing weight is imperative. For healthy diet: http://www.choosemyplate.gov/., exercise 30 minutes/day, drink enough water daily so your urine is mostly colorless, have safe sex, no tobacco alcohol weed or street drugs.
