Biomarkers Tested

• Apolipoprotein B (ApoB): ApoB is a protein found in the particles that carry cholesterol through your bloodstream. High levels of ApoB are linked to an increased risk of heart disease because they indicate a higher number of cholesterol-carrying particles, which can contribute to plaque buildup in arteries. Lower levels are generally better for heart health.

• High-Density Lipoprotein Cholesterol (HDL): Often called "good" cholesterol, HDL helps remove excess cholesterol from your arteries and transports it to your liver for disposal. Higher HDL levels are associated with a lower risk of heart disease because it helps clean up cholesterol that can cause problems in the bloodstream.

• Low-Density Lipoprotein Cholesterol (LDL): Known as "bad" cholesterol, LDL carries cholesterol to the cells. But too much LDL in your bloodstream can lead to plaque buildup in your arteries, which increases the risk of heart attack and stroke. Keeping LDL levels low is important for heart health.

• Triglycerides: These are a type of fat found in your blood, which your body uses for energy. High triglyceride levels can raise your risk of heart disease, especially when combined with high LDL or low HDL levels. Keeping triglycerides in check supports overall cardiovascular health.

• Total Cholesterol: This is the overall amount of cholesterol in your blood, including HDL, LDL, and other types of cholesterol. While it gives a snapshot of your cholesterol levels, focusing on the individual components (like LDL and HDL) is more helpful in understanding your heart disease risk. Lower total cholesterol is generally better, but the balance between different types matters more.
