Lipid
Lipids are compounds needed for many processes in the body. A standard lipid panel is a group of tests that measure your most important lipids: cholesterol and triglycerides. Why is it important?
Although cholesterol is vital to your health, too much of it contributes to heart disease. High cholesterol levels can be caused by genetics, diet, lack of exercise, medications, as well as certain diseases such as diabetes and hypothyroidism. Over the course of many years, this eventually causes heart disease which may result in a heart attack or stroke. This means that testing your lipid levels is a very important part of reducing your risk for heart disease.
A standard lipid panel typically measures four different types of lipids:
- Total cholesterol (TC)
- Low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C)
- High-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C)
- Triglycerides (TG)
