Firstly start to exercise. Anything moderate impact, gets you breathing fairly hard, gets your heart rate up to 70 to 80% of max [to get max heart rate subtract your age from 220]. calculate what is 70 to 80% of Max HR and work roughly at an intensity that will get your HR to the recommended level.
There is an inverse relation between HDL (good cholesterol) and LDL (bad cholesterol). Exercise is the only way to increase HDL.
Don't eat a diet too low in fat as that can also reduce HDL (good cholesterol) levels. Home made olive oil and homemade Ghee (clarified butter) are the best cooking mediums as compared to commercial oils.
Eat a variable diet rich in whole grain products, meats, milk products, poultry, fish, fresh fruit, raw vegetables, cooked fresh vegetables, nuts and seeds.
What doctors say about eating poly unsaturated and monounsaturated oils and not eating nuts, poultry, milk products and lean meats is bullshit.
Avoid processed foods such as white bread, all fizzy drinks, fried foods, char grilled foods, junk foods and all sweets and deserts (a small desert after dinner is OK but don't overdo it).
