Well apparently I found out that my cholesterol is too low...83 when apparently it should be around 140...this is not good.

Total cholesterol at 83? Just start fitting more Monounsaturated fatty acids (MUFAs) into your diet to raise HDL...olive oil, egg yolks, nuts, peanut butter, animal fats all work.
My HDL > Your total cholesterol
There's no known ill consequences of raising HDL too high naturally with food (But it's controversial with doing so with some of the latest and greatest drugs aimed at raising HDL, something very different from typical cholesterol meds used currently)0
