Last one about exercise, but this one is pretty impressive.  Work those quads!  Research has shown that men who did lower-body leg workouts 2x per week for 16 weeks raised their HDL levels by 19%!  That is incredible, the program in the research was three sets of six to eight repetitions of the half squat, and leg extension and leg press, resting no more than 2 minutes between sets.  Use a weight about 85 percent of the amount you can lift just once.  Better cholesterol, better and stronger legs, not bad.
