Fish oil capsules everyday before a meal (or you get the fish burps....yuck). My mom's Dr. told her to take them when they found out she had high cholesterol and I started taking them just in case.

People with sedentary lifestyles often have higher cholesterol than those who lead a more active lifestyle.

I mainly manage mine with fish oil capsules, odorless garlic capsules and exercise.
