Your husband’s reports show mildly raised bilirubin and slightly elevated liver enzymes, along with high total cholesterol and LDL. These findings usually suggest mild fatty liver or early changes related to cholesterol metabolism, especially if there are no symptoms. This often happens due to a sedentary lifestyle, irregular meals, fatty or fried foods, or occasional alcohol intake. The liver and cholesterol changes are closely linked, as excess fat in the body can accumulate in liver cells and raise both bilirubin and cholesterol levels. He should start by reducing oily, processed, and sugary foods, avoiding alcohol, and including more fruits, vegetables, and fiber. A brisk 30–40 minute walk daily and good hydration help significantly. Repeat liver and lipid tests after 8–10 weeks of lifestyle correction. If the bilirubin or enzymes remain high, an ultrasound of the liver is advised. If you prefer, we can go over his reports together through an online consultation.

Hi. Until the total-Bilirubin levels are above 3, you need not worry about it. About cholesterol; yes it is slightly on higher side, also LDL cholesterol. This indicates initiation of cholesterol-lowering medication.
Next Steps
Evaluate for metabolic syndrome : check weight, blood sugars (Fasting and/or Random), and Bp. Get all of these done, and we can take from there.
