<s>[INST] I am a 55 yr old female, 5 5 , weighing 140 lbs. I walk apprx 4 miles daily (16 min mile) for exercise. I recently had blood work done and found my overall cholesterol numbers to be 255, with LDL: 162, HDL: 62, and Trig 57. My glucose is 81. THey checked my blood pressure and it was 110/62. I take niacin (500 mg), fish oil (2000mg), and flaxseed oil (1200mg) daily, though I do miss daily doses occasionally. What should be my course of action to get back myself back in the number ranges I need to be? Thank you [/INST] Hello, I passed carefully through your question and would explain that although your total cholesterol and LDL values are a little high, this does not mean that you have dyslipidemia. The rations Total Cholesterol/HDL and LDL/HDL are within the normal range, which means that there is no need to panic or take any treatment.  I would just recommend reduce fat and sugar intake and take a lot of fibers. Nothing serious is going on! So, just relax and don't worry about it! Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.  </s>
