Biomarkers
Biomarkers
Triglycerides
Triglycerides are strongly linked to cardiovascular risk and are an essential marker for understanding how well your body processes and stores fat.
Biomarkers
Total Cholesterol
Total cholesterol measures the overall amount of cholesterol in your blood. It provides a broad overview of cardiovascular health and helps assess whether more detailed lipid analysis is needed.
Biomarkers
LDL (Low-Density Lipoprotein)
Often called “bad” cholesterol, LDL can contribute to plaque buildup inside arteries. Higher levels increase the risk of heart disease and stroke, making it a key marker in cardiovascular screening.
Biomarkers
HDL (High-Density Lipoprotein)
Known as “good” cholesterol, HDL helps carry excess cholesterol away from the arteries. Higher HDL levels are protective and are associated with better cardiovascular health.
Biomarkers
Cholesterol : HDL Ratio
This ratio compares total cholesterol to protective HDL levels. A higher ratio may indicate increased cardiovascular risk.
Biomarkers
Non-HDL Cholesterol
Non-HDL cholesterol is considered one of the most accurate markers of heart disease risk and is especially important for assessing metabolic health, insulin resistance, or diabetes risk.

FAQ – Cholesterol Blood Test
If you have any other questions please reach out to us directly.
1. What does this cholesterol test measure?
This test measures the key markers that influence heart and metabolic health, including total cholesterol, LDL, HDL, triglycerides, the cholesterol:HDL ratio, and non-HDL cholesterol. Together, they provide a clear assessment of your cardiovascular risk.
2. Why is it important to check my cholesterol levels?
High cholesterol often has no symptoms, yet it’s one of the biggest preventable risk factors for heart disease and stroke. This test helps identify imbalances early so you can take proactive steps to protect your long-term heart health.
3. What’s the difference between LDL and HDL cholesterol?
LDL is often called “bad” cholesterol because high levels can contribute to plaque buildup in the arteries.
HDL is the “good” cholesterol that helps remove excess cholesterol from the bloodstream.
A healthy balance between the two is essential for cardiovascular wellbeing.
4. Do I need to fast before taking the test?
Yes, we recommend fasting for 8 hours before this test. Water is okay.
