Lipid Profile test is a test that measures the levels of cholesterol in the body. Cholesterol is an important element as it ensures the normal functioning of the body by maintaining the levels of various lipids and converting calories into energy that the body uses every day or stores for further use. It is made in the liver and intestines and serves as building block for hormones. Cholesterol travels in the blood with the help of lipoproteins, and high-density-lipoproteins. It is essential for these lipids to be in the normal range to ensure the good health of heart.
Low and high levels of lipids can cause the arteries to become narrow and pose serious risks to heart health causing different cardiovascular diseases. In today’s sedentary lifestyle, unhealthy eating habits, unhealthy sleep schedule, stress of work, and anxiety, having an imbalance in cholesterol levels have become a common scenario and heart diseases have become more frequent, irrespective of people’s age.
Therefore, getting routine health checkups including lipid profile tests can serve as a big help to manage heart conditions in time by making essential changes in lifestyle, and following treatment as the doctor recommends.
