Hello
For high cholesterol you must avoid foods which are of animal origin like milk,milk products,meat,eggs etc.Quit fried items.
For high triglycerides you must quit sweets,junk foods,colas,alcohol,
Do regular exercises for atleast one hour a day.
Take more of fresh fruits and green vegetables.
Ideally you must consult a dietician so that your day to day diet can be modified.
Taking liv 52 has no benefit for you.
Your fatty liver can be controlled only by low calorie diet and reduction of weight.
Thanks
