3) Weight- If you are obese, you are more prone to get cholesterol. Thus, you need to lose weight
4) Exercise- Exercise regularly to maintain a perfect cholesterol level
5) Stress- If you are a student, take breaks in between study timings to keep you less stress or if you are an adult, go for walks and do something that you like the most to calm your brain down.
