If you need to lower your cholesterol, a heart-healthy diet rich in fruits, vegetables, whole grains, poultry, fish, and nuts combined with more physical activity can help. A sedentary lifestyle lowers HDL, or good cholesterol, which helps offset the bad cholesterol. Strive for 150 minutes of moderate-intensity exercise a week. Brisk walking or jogging, cycling or swimming are all good options
