My understanding was that Omega 3 (EPA/DHA), increases levels of "good" cholesterol (HDL). Does it increase also the LDL?



I would suggest that it has been moderately well (dis)proven that HDL is a marker for risk, not a treatment target for risk. E.g. the CTEP trials and the Mendelian Randomization data both indicate this.
