[QUOTE="Bluetit1802, post: 1510842, member: 94045"] The most important ratio is the trigs/HDL which should be under 0.87. Yours is 0.91 so not too bad at all. Raising your HDL or lowering your trigs will improve this. Was this a fasting test or had you recently eaten/drunk? If not fasting it will have skewed the trigs level. They will be higher. (They will have been swimming about in your blood stream dealing with any food you have eaten) The usual foods for lowering LDL and raising HDL are Fatty fish especially salmon Walnuts and almonds Dark chocolate/cocoa powder Olive oil/rapeseed oil Flaxseed Chia seed Avocado Red wine Exercise Carbohydrates can deplete HDL [/QUOTE]
