Hi, dear
I have gone through your question. I can understand your concern.
Your husband has high tryglycerides and cholesterols. Her HDL cholesterol is lower than normal. It is a risk factor for coronary heart disease. He should take low fat diet with high amount of poly unsaturated fatty acids. He can take drugs like atorvastatin or pravastatin to control cholesterols. However it is priscription based medicine so consult your doctor and start treatment accodingly.
Hope I have answered your question, if you have any doubts then contact me at bit.ly/Drsanghvihardik, I will be happy to answer you.
Thanks for using health care magic.
Wish you a very good health
