I am a cardiac stent patient. Got stented in 2017/Feb. My present lipid profile shows LDL as 60 but HDL IS ONLY 38. Triglyceride is 61. I am 60+ in age. How do I correct my hdl with food?

I am afraid you need to consult your doctor to get good advice.
What is the total cholesterol? general health? what medication are you taking after and before stent?
HDL is 20% of total cholesterol, if HDL is low then total cholesterol can be low as well. Your doctor need to look at the medication dosage?
Life style change and regular exercise can help towards a healthy life, watching out for free and hidden sugar as well.
Total cholesterol 116. Triglyceride 61,hdl 38,LDL direct 60,vldl 18.70, non hdl 78.70.
All figures mg/DL
FBS 70-80 , pp after two hours 89-100

Daily exercise also raises HDL.
Avoid all sugars, sweets and packaged foods. Avoid simple carbohydrates.
