Depends on what you’re eating. In general, reducing the intake of fat in the diet helps to manage cholesterol levels. That being said, some levels of cholesterol are healthy, so no need to overreact!

Hi Fishes,

My last working date with TCS is on 4th March 2022 and now they are offering me 80% hike and Canada onsite opportunity and telling that will initiate visa as soon as I take resignation back and also ready to provide written confirmation. On the other hand I have an offer from IBM of 120% hike fixed and performance bonus would be there which I am not considering now.

Which one would be better? please suggest based on your knowledge and experience.
