Overview
Statins and fibrate appear to be effective in patients with low HDL levels compared to those in normal HDL levels in terms of risk reduction.Fibrates are more effective when low HDL levels coincide with low levels of LDL levels. Before a combination of statins and fibrates are considered, dietary modifications and lifestyle changes can be effective tools to raise HDL levels. However, a combination therapy of statins with fibrates can result in myopathy as a potential adverse effect.
Diet and Lifestyle
Certain changes in lifestyle can have a positive impact on raising HDL levels:[1]
- Aerobic exercise[2]
- Weight loss
- Smoking cessation
- Using supplements such as omega 3 fish oil
- Limiting intake of dietary fat to 30–35% of total calories
- Removing trans fatty acids from the diet
- Adding monounsaturated and polyunsaturated fats to the diet, and reducing or eliminating saturated fats.
- Drinking 1–2 servings of alcoholic beverages per day
- Adding soluble fiber to diet
