Lipid Profile

Total Cholesterol: This test measures the total amount of cholesterol in the blood, which includes both HDL (good) and LDL (bad) cholesterol. High total cholesterol levels can increase the risk of heart disease and stroke.

High-Density Lipoprotein (HDL): Often referred to as "good" cholesterol, HDL helps remove excess cholesterol from the bloodstream and transports it to the liver for removal. Higher levels of HDL are protective against heart disease.

Low-Density Lipoprotein (LDL): Known as "bad" cholesterol, LDL carries cholesterol to the cells. High levels of LDL cholesterol can lead to plaque buildup in the arteries, increasing the risk of heart disease and stroke.

HDL % of Total Cholesterol: This is the percentage of total cholesterol that is HDL. A higher percentage suggests better heart health, as it indicates a higher proportion of "good" cholesterol relative to "bad" cholesterol.

Non-HDL Cholesterol: This value is calculated by subtracting HDL cholesterol from total cholesterol. It includes all cholesterol types that are considered harmful, such as LDL and VLDL, and is an important marker for cardiovascular risk.

Triglycerides: Elevated triglyceride levels, often associated with high calorie intake, obesityo r uncontrolled diabetes, increase the risk of heart disease and stroke.

 

Vitamins:

Vitamin D: Essential for bone health, immune function, and overall well-being. Low levels can lead to bone disorders, fatigue and weakened immunity.

Vitamin B12: Important for nerve function, red blood cell production, and DNA synthesis. Deficiency can cause fatigue, weakness and neurological issues.

 

High Sensitive C -Reactive Protein (hs- CRP):

high-sensitivity C-Reactive Protein is a marker of inflammation in the body. Elevated levels can indicate infections or chronic inflammatory conditions.

 

Ferritin:

Ferritin is a protein that stores iron in the body. Low levels may indicate iron deficiency, while high levels can suggest inflammation, liver disease or iron overload.
