Good cholesterol ... suggestions needed!

[MrsKarenC2008 622]

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 !

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.

Off the top of my head:

Avocado

Olive oil

Dark chocolate

Nuts

Beans

Red wine?

Here is a link that may help. I didn't read the whole thing but I trust Eating Well for nutrition information.
