Avoid fried foods, red meat, full fat dairy, and bakery items. Add oats, flax seeds, walnuts, green leafy vegetables, and fruits. Use olive oil or mustard oil in moderation. Include 20 to 30 mins of walking daily. Take Vitamin D rich foods (eggs, fortified milk) and sun exposure.

My fasting test report shows the following: Total cholesterol: 265 mg/dl, Triglycerides: 256 mg/dl, HDL: 44.8 mg/dl, LDL: 171 mg/dl, VLDL: 171 mg/dl, Non HDL: 220 mg/dl. Could you please assist in interpreting these results? What could be the possible reasons for these values, and is this really risky?

Good evening, my name is Chiranjeevi. I am 28 years old. In a recent blood test report, I was told that I have high cholesterol and low vitamin D. I am a vegetarian. Please help me with some medication to reduce cholesterol and increase vitamin D. I sometimes face pain when I sit on the floor. Please suggest some medication?
