How are my levels, are they dangerous, safe, what should I do to fix them. My age is 55 [/INST] Hello, the cholesterol targets depend largely on your medical history. If you're healthy (no diabetes, no heart events, no hypertension, etc.) then your HDL and LDL are fairly OK. Your HDL would be better if it were higher though.I'll mention a few things you can do to raise it:- quit smoking (if you smoke)- consult your cardiologist for approval and start a mild daily exercise program-avoid saturated fat-prefer olive oil (when using oil for cooking)- avoid fried food-loose some weight hope I've helped! Contact me again, if you'd like further clarifications. Kind regards! </s>
