Cholesterol question ?

G'Day

A question about cholesterol, did my medical a week or so ago and got the blood results back today my Chol, Trig, VLDL and LDL are all just on the upper limits my HDL is good so my ratio is in a safe range but I would still like to reduce it. The Doctor I saw only gave me a drug option and wasn't interested in me changing my diet.

So a little help please I understand I must cut back on red meat , butter cheese etc and eat more fish fruit and veg.

I eat lots of fruit and veg already so I will just up the fish and chicken a little and cut out the red meat, I think otherwise my diet is fine. I am also cutting out the grog for a month or 2 .

I also would like to know how protein drinks affect cholesterol I usually have a protein (whey) after a session at the gym.

I have heard so many things on what I should and shouldn't do.


Any help or hints appreciated
