Cholesterol and Lipid Test
Track Your Cholesterol, Protect Your Heart
Cholesterol plays a central role in heart health — and while it’s essential for bodily function, too much of the wrong type can quietly raise your risk for heart disease and stroke. The Cholesterol and Lipid Test is a simple at-home blood test that measures your complete lipid profile, helping you understand how well your body is managing fats and whether changes may be needed to support cardiovascular wellness.
Whether you’re managing high cholesterol, adopting a heart-healthy lifestyle, or simply want peace of mind, this test gives you the data you need to take proactive control of your heart health.
What’s Measured?
LDL Cholesterol
Often referred to as “bad” cholesterol — high levels can lead to artery plaque and increased heart disease risk.
HDL Cholesterol
Known as “good” cholesterol — helps clear excess cholesterol from the bloodstream, offering protective effects.
Total Cholesterol
Provides your overall cholesterol level by combining LDL, HDL, and other cholesterol types.
Triglycerides
Measures the level of fat in your blood — high triglycerides are linked to metabolic risk and heart disease.
What the Test Does
This test analyses six important markers to give you a detailed picture of your cardiovascular risk. It measures LDL cholesterol, often referred to as “bad” cholesterol, which can build up in your arteries and increase the risk of heart disease. HDL cholesterol, known as “good” cholesterol, helps remove excess cholesterol from the blood and is associated with a lower risk of cardiovascular issues.
The test also measures total cholesterol, a combination of LDL, HDL, and other cholesterol types, and non-HDL cholesterol, which represents all potentially harmful cholesterol types combined. Triglycerides, a type of fat in the blood, are also assessed, as elevated levels can raise your risk for metabolic syndrome and cardiovascular complications. Finally, your cholesterol ratio — the balance between total cholesterol and HDL — is calculated to provide an overall view of your lipid health.
Ideal For
High cholesterol often has no symptoms but can significantly increase your risk of heart disease over time. This test is ideal for anyone who wants to monitor their cardiovascular health, especially if you have a family history of heart disease, are over the age of 40, or are managing conditions like high blood pressure, diabetes, or weight gain.
It’s also an excellent way to track the effects of dietary changes, medications, or supplements that target heart health. With clear, actionable results, you can make smarter choices about your lifestyle, nutrition, and medical care.
