Hello thanx for using hcm,
Mam, you cholesterol goes up when you consume fat rich diet.
you should see a physician before starting any lipid lowering drugs.
As you start medicine it comes down if you reduce the dosage or stop it again shoots up, unless and until you control your diet.
CUT DOWN ALL SOURCES OF FAT FROM YOUR DIET LIKE CREAM, GHEE, BUTTER, RED MEATS, FULL FAT DAIRY PRODUCTS , EXCESS USE OF OIL, FRIED FOODS, BAKERY PRODUCTS.
CONSUME HEALTHY SOURCES IN A LIMIT LIKE ALMONDS, WALNUTS, OLIVE OIL, CANOLA OIL.
INCLUDE FLAX SEEDS AND METHI SEEDS AS PART OF OUR DIET.
