Hello,

Regarding your concern, I would like to explain that your daily physical activity does not seem to be really effective in lowering cholesterol levels. On the other hand, persistent cholesterol levels could be related to a liver disorder.

Coming to this point, I would recommend taking a statin (atorvastatin, simvastatin) in order to help lower cholesterol levels. Increasing food rich in omega 3 fatty acids (fish, fish oil, olive oil, walnuts, etc.) can help improve your cholesterol levels too.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Ilir Sharka
