Incredibly your health at 3 year old is related to your health when u are much older.

Seen the doctor on Monday and was informed that my LDL shot up to 3.9. Normal is less than 2.6. Previous reading was 2.8 in Nov 2017. Told me to restrict seafood and cut down on oily + deep fried food.

How to really make my LDL drop???

I’ve tried and it doesn’t drop.

whats your HDL figure?

Reduce animal fat intake. Increase plant fat intake via nuts. 

Higher protein intake but minimise fat. Tofu. Leaner meats. Try not to eat chicken skin. reduced red meat lor.
Less oily stuff.

Think not easy to reduce LDL, even your LDL is at normal range also doesnt mean the person dont have coronary artery disease. So i dont really completely trust the cholesterol reading result de.

I dont take red meat at all.

Will LDL really go down? Exercise will help? I read that exercise only help a little.

It's mostly due to diet. 

Keto will cause your LDL to increase. But i think you are just doing IF so it shouldn't really. 

My LDL is also still mid 3+, which is better than 4+ when i was 89-90kg.

It really depends what you're eating.

Yes you're right. If u eat white bread 100% of the time, u will have great LDL but get insulin resistance. 

For 90% of folks, I think focus on diet and exercise. Not the numbers per say. But the numbers remind us, more can be done.

Breakfast was on rolled oats soaked overnight in milk for 3x a week (replaces my wholemeal bread) for 6 months before taking my blood test. LDL came down by 7%. Not sure if there is any direct relationship.

You can try. No harm also. Even without LDL dropping, at least you are increasing your soluble fiber intake.
