The Cholesterol Profile, also known as a Lipid Profile, is a blood test panel that provides a comprehensive assessment of the fats (lipids) in your bloodstream, primarily to evaluate the risk of cardiovascular disease. This profile typically includes key parameters such as Total Cholesterol, Low-Density Lipoprotein (LDL) – often referred to as “bad” cholesterol, High-Density Lipoprotein (HDL) – the “good” cholesterol, Triglycerides, and sometimes VLDL (Very Low-Density Lipoprotein). These values help determine the balance between harmful and protective cholesterol levels in the body. An abnormal lipid profile can indicate an increased risk of heart disease, stroke, and atherosclerosis. The Cholesterol Profile is especially important for individuals with risk factors like obesity, diabetes, high blood pressure, smoking, or a family history of heart disease. Regular monitoring allows for timely lifestyle changes or medical intervention to maintain heart health and prevent complications.
