Unhappy anyone have any hints about raising good cholestrol?

Hi
I'm looking for a good way to raise my good cholestrol, even though I am taking 1 tb seeds, 1 tb linseeds, using olive oil and eating salmon at least once a week, as well as 1000 mg fish oil, good cholestrol was only 0.88 when tested, bad cholestrol was 5.8--doc didn't seem worried about 5.8 but said both should be about equal?--so I've got a LONG way to go...was really shocked as I assumed ALL these seeds, oil etc would do the trick

someone suggested I eat 4-6 egg whites cooked with 4 raw yolks on top each day---YUCK

ANything else I can do?

Am I eating too much bad fat because my BP is 164/100, but don't know what it was before--or should I give it more time--I've been on Atkins since April 1st.

Read somewhere that an intolerance to an acid in red meat and eggs drives your BP up--how can I tell if this is happening to me?

thanks for your help
Kae
