Analysis of 6 essential biomarkers: Total Cholesterol – a measurement of the total amount of cholesterol in the blood, including low-density and high-density lipoprotein cholesterols. HDL (High-Density Lipoprotein) – is a form of cholesterol which is considered ‘good’ cholesterol because it helps remove cholesterol from the heart’s arteries. LDL (Low-Density Lipoprotein) – is considered ‘bad’ cholesterol because it contributes to cholesterol build-up and blockage in the arteries. HDL Ratio – is a mathematical calculation which indicates the ratio of total cholesterol versus ‘good’ (HDL) cholesterol in the blood. Non-HDL Cholesterol is a measurement of the total amount of cholesterol in the blood excluding the ‘good’ HDL. Triglyceride – is another type of fat (not the same as cholesterol) found in the bloodstream.
