Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
hello I came back from the doctor after a blood test (after fasting for 12 hours) and the results showed I have a LDL count of 195. Furthermore my trigs (79) and HDL (67) were normal; and a full cholesterol count of 277. I am a 24 year old male and I exercise regular. I also eat very clean because and very rarely indulge in simple carbs and trans fats. What could I do to lower my LDL count other than taking medicine (which is what i want to avoid). Also could there be other factors contributing to my high LDL count. Thank you.
