Cholesterol is a fat-like, waxy substance present in your body. Liver is responsible to make cholesterol that your body requires. Many food items; especially those made from animal products, contain cholesterol. If you consume such food items more often, there would be too much of cholesterol in your body.
Excessive amount of cholesterol generally builds up in your body in the form of fats or plaque. Plaque is usually formed in the inner side of your arteries; thus narrowing the passageways for blood flow. This is how cholesterol can be harmful for your body. Excess of cholesterol intake can also be responsible for many other health issues.
High amount of cholesterol in your system does not probably show any signs or symptoms. Blood arteries, angina, severe chest ache, or poor flow of blood, are few conditions that call for cholesterol assessment.
Cholesterol test is usually a part of routine examinations, mainly for adults. There are more than one substances evaluated in your cholesterol test. Let us learn about this test in detail.
Cholesterol test involves the following examinations:
High Density Lipoproteins (HDL) – HDL is called the good cholesterol in your body. It passes bad cholesterol through your blood to the liver. The liver then discards the bad cholesterol out from your body. A higher amount of good cholesterol in your blood is a good thing. Hence, this variable is necessary to be learnt by your pathologist.
Low Density Lipoprotiens (LDL) – LDL is called as the bad cholesterol. This type is responsible to accumulate plaque in the internal lining of your arteries that increases the risk of heart disorders.
Triglycerides – These are a type of fat that play equal role in increasing the risk of cardiac disorders.
Cholesterol test requires a little amount of your blood sample to study the levels of HDL, LDL and triglycerides.
