Exercise May Boost 'Good' Cholesterol

Exercise May Boost 'Good' Cholesterol:
"Chalk up another health benefit of aerobic exercise -- it may boost HDL ('good') cholesterol levels.

But brief bouts of exercise may not be enough.

It may take at least two hours per week of aerobic exercise such as walking, biking, or swimming -- preferably in sessions lasting for more than half an hour -- to get the HDL benefit."
