Hi everyone--I have really enjoyed reading what each had to say--I have one question. My cholesterol isn't that high--220 up 40 points from 180--but I have very low HDL--33. I used to smoke but quit 7 years ago--At that time my HDL was even lower. What do I need to do to get a better reading on that? I assume if that was higher I would have a better ratio. Now it is 6.7---This hospitals normal range goes from 1.4-6.0. How do you elevate the HDL??
Thanks for your help. Alice
