Reasons You May Need Cholesterol Test:

High cholesterol levels are not good for health and indicate problems. Therefore, measuring the levels in time is crucial to identify your risks and act accordingly. However, it usually causes no symptoms at the early stage, which makes it hard to determine. And the delay in diagnosis can only lead to complications. Since it causes no symptoms, your doctor may suggest a Cholesterol Test if you fall under the high-risk category. Check if you are at high risk or not.

  • Sedentary Lifestyle: If you are leading a less active lifestyle, monitoring your cholesterol is essential to eliminate risks and keep you healthy.
  • Aging: Aging is the major factor that increases your risk of developing health problems like high cholesterol. Therefore, getting tested for aging is essential to measure the levels and take necessary precautions in time.
  • Family History: Moreover, a Cholesterol Test is suggested for patients with a family history of high cholesterol or heart disease. They are more likely to be affected. Hence, getting screened is significant to subside your risks.
  • Have Underlying Health Condition: Your doctor may also suggest a Cholesterol Blood Test if you have an underlying health condition like diabetes, heart disease, or more.
  • Obesity: Obesity further increases your risk of developing cholesterol problems. Taking excess body weight and elevated cholesterol is a cause of concern that should be addressed seriously.

If you are in the category or your doctor has suggested a Cholesterol Blood Test, you can schedule a Serum Cholesterol Test in Kolkata with Redcliffe Labs.

Causes of high Cholesterol

What is LDL and HDL in Cholesterol

LDL: LDL, short for Low-Density Lipoprotein, is a form of cholesterol commonly known as the "bad" cholesterol. Its main role is to transport cholesterol to the body's cells via the bloodstream. However, when LDL levels are high or if it undergoes oxidation, it can lead to the accumulation of plaque in the arteries. This build-up raises the risk of heart disease and stroke. It is crucial to monitor LDL levels and keep them within a healthy range to promote cardiovascular well-being.

HDL: HDL, which stands for High-Density Lipoprotein, is commonly known as the "good" cholesterol. Its primary function is to transport excess cholesterol from the bloodstream back to the liver, where it is metabolized and eliminated from the body. Having higher levels of HDL is linked to a decreased risk of heart disease. HDL plays a protective role by facilitating the removal of harmful LDL cholesterol and minimizing the accumulation of plaque in the arteries. Promoting healthy HDL levels through practices like regular exercise and a well-balanced diet is advantageous for maintaining cardiovascular well-being.
