Dear XXXXXXX XXXXXXX Hi
Welcome back.
Thanks for your compliments.

The HDL cholesterol ("good cholesterol") reduces the deposition of fat in the blood vessels can be increased by regular exercise and by avoiding smoking.

The level of LDL cholesterol can be well maintained by taking a vegetarian diet, poultry, fish, fruits, etc.

Last but not the least, try to avoid stress or stressful situation.

Wishing you best of your health.
