How do I read HDL and LDL and overall cholesterol when you are on modified diets?

Always consult your doctor to see how your diet may affect your cholesterol.

I feel diet is important in all categories of health.

I am not real sure what the question is asking.

I agree, always consult your physician to ensure your body is healthy enough to add exercise, diet, etc. to your daily activities.

Your diet only affects 10% of your serum cholesterol levels, it's not mostly about diet.

No, not even that. Exercise is good for lowering cholesterol as it creates small particle HDL that binds to LDL and takes it to be eliminated. In reality, in most cases high cholesterol is the result of how effectively your body eliminates LDL or controls it's production.  

You would have to ask your doctor are a nutritionist about the amounts of HDL and LDL n certain foods. Diet is a part of lowering cholesterol, but you will still have to monitor your intake of how much cholesterol is in the diet.

It always important to check the levels of nutrients in all foods.
