High cholesterol can be managed by eating a healthy diet, reducing fried and fatty foods, and exercising regularly. Maintaining a healthy weight and avoiding smoking also helps improve cholesterol levels. You should consult your doctor to see if medicines are needed in addition to lifestyle changes.
