Aim for at least 30 minutes of physical activity on most or all days of the week. Regular exercise can lower triglycerides and boost "good" cholesterol. Try to incorporate more physical activity into your daily tasks. For example, climb the stairs at work or take a walk during breaks

Take a FREE AND TOTAL THYROID PROFILE (T3,T4, FT3, FT4,TSH) Test or Take a COMPREHENSIVE MYELOMA PROTEIN PANEL (IMMUNOFIXATION QUANTITATIVE) Test

Does exercise lower cholesterol and triglycerides?

Answered by Apollo Doctors

Hi, I am planning to follow a KETO diet and would like some valuable suggestions. Does it help in regulating high cholesterol and blood sugar levels?

Answered by Apollo Doctors

Dear Doctor, please suggest what to do? My husband HDL levels are very low. He was using statins to control triglycerides, which were over 100 and are now 171. I am worried about his HDL levels. His lipid profile shows total cholesterol 118 mg/dl, HDL cholesterol 24 mg/dl, LDL cholesterol 60 mg/dl, triglycerides 171 mg/dl, TC/HDL cholesterol ratio 4.9, LDL/HDL ratio 2.5, VLDL cholesterol 34.2 mg/dl, and non-HDL cholesterol 93.6 mg/dl.
