Hai,
Due to lack of fiber food intake and high fatty and fried food may lead to increase in bad cholesterol.

I will suggest you diet and lifestyle:

Be hydrated. 3 to 4litres of water.
Add more fiber foods like leafy vegetables like spinash,gourd,cabbage,cauliflower,garlic,onion,okra,cucumber and fruits like pomegranate,tender coconut,lime,orange,watermelon .

Add more millets in your daily food stuffs. add barley,lentils etc.
Avoid deep fried,junk,fatty foods.

Improve the quantity and quality of fats you eat.
use oils(unsaturated -like olive oil,sesame oil,corn oil) in small amounts, avoid frying.
don't use used oils for further cooking process.

moderate exercise is recommended.

Regards
Dr.S.Senthilnathan
