A member asked:
Can you suggest how to lower my triglycerides and raise my good (hdl) cholesterol?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Diet and exercise: Reduce your intake of carbohydrates and fats, increase the amount of exercise to at least 30 minutes/day. Fish oil may help. If that does not help, please consult your doctor for other medications.
