Good cholesterol ... suggestions needed!

Hey everyone!

6 month blood work results are in!

All is within perfect guidelines ...

BUT

Doc says I need to get my good cholesterol UP .... its too low ...

Ok ... so how do I do that?

The phone conversation I had with the nurse just now was short and sweet and she really didn't give me the chance to ask ...

I didn't fret about it ... Because I have all of you! :)

So if you guys could give me a clue here .... I'd appreciate it !

:)

    @@MrsKarenC2008 I have issues with low HDL as well. My doctor says exercise is the best way to increase it. My LDL is also extremely low, so my doctor thinks I may be at a good balance.
