Heart Health Profile
Know Your Numbers, Protect Your Heart
Your heart is at the core of your long-term health — and the numbers in your blood can tell you a lot about its condition. The Heart Health Profile is a simple, at-home blood test that evaluates key cardiovascular markers including cholesterol, triglycerides, and HbA1c (a measure of long-term blood sugar control). These results give you an honest, actionable look at your risk for heart disease, stroke, and other cardiovascular issues.
Whether you’re being proactive about prevention or have a family history of heart conditions, this test provides you with the data needed to make confident, informed decisions about your lifestyle, diet, and long-term health.
What’s Measured?
Cholesterol Overview
Assess total cholesterol, LDL, HDL, and non-HDL levels to understand your balance of protective and harmful fats in the blood.
Triglyceride Levels
Check your triglycerides — a key risk factor for heart and metabolic health — especially relevant if your diet includes excess sugar or alcohol.
Cholesterol Ratios
Evaluate your cholesterol-to-HDL ratio, a strong clinical marker of cardiovascular disease risk.
Blood Sugar Control
Measure HbA1c, an essential marker of long-term glucose regulation, which plays a vital role in heart disease prevention.
What You'll Discover
This capillary blood test analyses seven essential markers that influence cardiovascular health. Total cholesterol provides a broad overview of cholesterol levels in your blood, while LDL cholesterol — often referred to as "bad" cholesterol — indicates your risk of arterial plaque buildup. HDL cholesterol, or “good” cholesterol, helps remove excess cholesterol from your arteries and plays a protective role.
Non-HDL cholesterol combines all harmful cholesterol types, offering a more complete picture of cardiovascular risk beyond LDL alone. Triglycerides, a type of fat in the blood, are measured to evaluate metabolic health and potential for heart complications. The cholesterol-to-HDL ratio is a strong predictor of heart disease risk, giving insight into the balance between good and bad cholesterol.
Finally, the test includes HbA1c — a powerful marker of blood sugar control over the past few months — which not only reflects diabetes risk but is also directly linked to heart health.
Why Take This Test?
Heart disease remains the leading cause of death globally, but the good news is that it’s often preventable. This test allows you to assess your risk early, especially if you’re experiencing symptoms like fatigue, high blood pressure, or weight gain — or if you simply want to monitor your progress after lifestyle changes such as diet improvements, weight loss, or cholesterol-lowering efforts.
It’s also a valuable tool for supporting conversations with your GP or healthcare provider, giving you concrete data to guide further testing, prescriptions, or referrals if necessary.
