No need to panic. Try to be vegetarian, stop smoking, stop alcohol, stop pizza/burger/samosa etc, do exercise for 45 minutes daily(mostly aerobic like running, jogging, walking etc), be on time for your food 8 am breakfast/Lunch 1 pm/dinner at 8 pm. After 3 months, repeat your lipid profile and let me know the result.
