Generally, fats can be broken down into 4 major types:
- Saturated Fats – increases LDL (Source: animal meats, dairy products)
- Polyunsaturated Fats – reduces total fat, thus reduces HDL as well, indirectly (Source: corn, soybean)
- Monounsaturated Fats – reduces LDL (Source: vegetables, nuts oil)
- Trans Fats – increases LDL and reduces HDL
***Note: There are no fats which help to increase HDL. The one and only way is through regular exercise
