Cholesterol Lipid Profile

About the test

This finger prick blood test measures the levels of cholesterol in the body, including total cholesterol, and LDL (Low Density Lipoprotein) and HDL (High Density Lipoprotein) cholesterol, which are important markers of cardiovascular health. 

It also measures non-HDL cholesterol and triglyceride levels, which can provide a clearer assessment of heart disease risk. 

This test can be helpful to assess and monitor cardiovascular health, for example in people with high blood pressure, diabetes, or a diagnosis or family history of heart disease. 

The test is suitable for anyone who would like to investigate their health for overall wellbeing.
