Description
The Cholesterol – Total test measures the total amount of cholesterol in the blood, including low-density lipoprotein (LDL), high-density lipoprotein (HDL), and triglycerides. Cholesterol is a fat-like substance that is essential for the body but can cause health issues if levels are too high. Elevated total cholesterol levels are a risk factor for heart disease, stroke, and other cardiovascular conditions. This test is typically part of a lipid profile and helps assess an individual’s risk of developing heart-related problems, guiding lifestyle or treatment adjustments to maintain healthy cholesterol levels.
