Talk to experienced doctor online and get your health questions answered in just 5 minutes.
You have not mentioned the other lipid panel test results.If your total cholesterol is 220 ,and if you have risk factors like hypertension , diabetes ,obesity and family history , your risk factors scores are calculated ,and if required medicine is started.
Otherwise you simply have to change your lifestyle and food habits along with exercise for 30 minutes a day for 5 days in a week ,for 2-3 months .

You didn't mention your age.
You have just mentioned your Cholesterol level. Please share the complete lipid profile.
In tele-consultation we rely totally on what you say. And if you supply sketchy information then the advice is bound to be sketchy.
