Hi Vineet
Regular exercise and diet will help. Consult a dietician for a diet plan. Recheck your cholesterol levels after 3 months.

Hi,
Include double the quantity of vegetables than you use on a daily basis (in both cooked as well as uncooked form).
Go for atleast one fruit a day.
start using 2 different kinds of oil for cooking, except palmoil, coconut oil n groundnut oil. they should be used in limited quantities.
Drink plenty of water.
Include green tea.
Reduce the usage of sugar n sweets.
Walk for 45min for 5 days a week.
Avoid red meat, fish is the best choice of NV for you.
avoid using egg yolk.
for personalised diet care, do visit a dietitian.
