HDL are low

[Tissle]

Hi,

I just got my lab results back after being on program for 2 months.
I was happy with everything but my HDL's were only 24.

What can I do to raise that?

Re: HDL are low

What was your total cholesterol, your LDL, and you tryglicerides?

And did you compare these results to your past blood work? Are things better or worse?

I just had blood work after 2 1/2 mos on plan. Total went up a little,
HDL went up-ok
LDL went up, lower is better-not ok
TRIG-went down-ok

Re: HDL are low

Everything was better except my HDL ?

Total was 135 now 92
HDL was 36 now 24
LDL was 70 now 53
Tri was 135 now 77
A1C was 8.0 now 6.5

Re: HDL are low

Sorry, I don't have an answer to your question, but those numbers look pretty good overall.

So your HDL went down instead of up. I wonder if it will "balance out" and that number improve in a few more months? Maybe it is too soon to see that number as it should be. I am just guessing, hopefully someone who knows better can comment.
