Hello, thanks for posting a question.
Your Total cholesterol, Triglycerides are slightly elevated.
My advice is that you modify your lifestyle.
1. Eat healthy food that mostly consists of green vegetables, nuts, whole grains, fish etc.
2. Avoid bad habits like smoking or drinking.
3. Start exercising. Cardio of at least 30 minutes for a minimum of 3 days in a week.
4. Drink plenty of water at least 2 liters a day.
If you keep to these advises you should see a positive result in a month or two. Best regards
