Why test
A cholesterol blood test is essential for assessing heart health.
High cholesterol often presents no symptoms but can lead to heart disease and stroke. Factors like diet, exercise, and genetics influence cholesterol levels. If high cholesterol is detected, lifestyle changes or medications may be recommended.
Our Cholesterol Profile Blood Test was created by healthcare professionals to assess your key biomarkers, and share GP recommendations on your next steps to help you maintain optimal cardiovascular health, and reduce your risk of you developing serious health concerns in the future.
What's included in our cholesterol test
HDL cholesterol
Explore your high-density lipoprotein. A low level can increase your chance of developing conditions such as heart disease and stroke. A high level is thought to help protect against this.
LDL cholesterol
Uncover your low-density lipoprotein. A high level can cause a thickening of the blood vessels known as atherosclerosis. This may lead to a higher risk of conditions such as high-density lipoprotein.
Total Cholesterol
Analyse the combination of your HDL and LDL cholesterol. A high level can cause a thickening of the blood vessels known as atherosclerosis. This may lead to a higher risk of conditions such as high-density lipoprotein.
Triglycerides
Explore your triglycerides health - a type of fat found in your blood which are an important source of energy.
What our customers say
Good kit, need to do as it says in terms of prep for the blood collection -warming your hands, getting the blood moving definitely helped. Sent it off and the results were back within a few days. The results are clear and actually highlighted an issue which I'll discuss with the doctor. I feel better informed about my health as a result.
Easy kit and useful results. Extremely useful kit! I have a family history of heart problems, so (now I’m middle aged) I’m much more interested in my cholesterol levels. Very difficult to get a face to face doctors appointment where I live, and I like that I can do the test at home. Highly recommend!
