HDL Cholesterol

[optimizer]

I work out 3 days a week. 30 min resistance training and 30 min cardio. My HDL cholesterol is low at 42. How can I raise this?

I'm on HCG only 5000 iu twice a week.

First, why are you only taking HCG?
Second, why are you taking so much?

Try lowering the LDL's.
I use Zetia with no sides.

42 isn't something to be concerned about...anything over 40 is normal

I am now on T-cypionate 200mg a week. will this help my HDL cholesterol rise? I am also on crestor 5mg a week. How's this on HDL?
