Hello, All your blood investigation are in normal range except the lipids. Now for you we will want total cholesterol under 200 and ldl cholesterol under 130 atleast and preferably under 100. The good cholesterol HdL is normal and we shouldn't worry about the same. Low how would we do it? Atleast 45 mins of aerobic exercise Daily Cut on oils, red meat, egg yellow, fried and preserved food. May shift to healthy oils like olive, 2 serving of fish /per week . Supplement like omega 3 fatty acid 1-2 gms a day, flax seed may work No medication required for any of your reports including lipids. After all lifestyle changes repeat a lipid profile after 3 months. Regards
