A Lipid Profile is a comprehensive blood test that measures the levels of various fats (lipids) in your bloodstream. It plays a vital role in assessing your risk for cardiovascular diseases such as heart attack, stroke, and atherosclerosis. This test is a key part of preventive healthcare and is especially important for individuals with lifestyle-related risks.
The standard lipid panel includes the following components:
Total Cholesterol: Measures the overall level of cholesterol in the blood.
High-Density Lipoprotein (HDL): Known as “good cholesterol,” it helps remove excess cholesterol.
Low-Density Lipoprotein (LDL): Known as “bad cholesterol,” high levels increase heart disease risk.
Doctors usually recommend a lipid profile for individuals with a family history of heart disease, obesity, diabetes, high blood pressure, or those over the age of 35. It is also advised as part of annual health checkups or before initiating cholesterol-lowering medications.
