What Can I Do if my HDL Cholesterol Level Is Low? If your HDL is low, you can take several steps to boost your HDL level and reduce your heart disease risk: Exercise. Aerobic exercise for 30 to 60 minutes on most days of the week can help pump up HDL. Quit smoking. Tobacco smoke lowers HDL, and quitting can increase HDL levels. Keep a healthy weight.
The higher the HDL, the better. HDL levels of 60 mg/dL and higher can help reduce your risk for heart disease. Conversely, HDL levels of 40 mg/dL and lower are considered a high risk factor for developing heart disease.
