Detailed Answer:
Hello!

Welcome to Ask a Doctor service!

Regarding your concern, I would explain that high LDL cholesterol and ALT levels could be related to alcohol intake.

Losing some weight, has helped lower cholesterol levels further.

For this reason, I would recommend repeating those blood lab tests again, as a month has passed since your last tests.

I would also encourage you to follow a healthy lifestyle ( healthy diet, Mediterranean diet is recommended, regular physical activity, no alcohol or smoking).

Hope you will find this answer helpful!

Detailed Answer:
Hello again!

I would not recommend frying fish with olive oil, because it gets destroyed from heat and many toxic substances get released in the air during this process.

For this reason, I would recommend using it only when frying in the oven or after cooking ( boiled vegetables, etc.).

Hope you will find this answer helpful!

Wishing all the best,
