Wow mine was in the 900s I bow before you. Eat flax especially milled flax. You can get it at most grocieries. You can buy whole flax and mill it in a coffee mill or you can eat it whole but you don't get as much of the Omega 3 and Omega 6. Eat fish but be careful as fish has heavy metal (mercury etc). Exercise helps some but if you cholesteral is normal usually you have a genetic condition.
You can take niacin if you can handle it, it make you skin itch. And the doctor can give you drugs.
