Heart & Cardiovascular Health
Your standard cholesterol test tells only 40% of the story. Our advanced cardiovascular panel reveals hidden risks that traditional tests miss, including particle sizes, inflammatory markers, and genetic factors that determine your true heart disease risk.
Why This Matters
Heart disease remains the #1 killer, yet 50% of heart attack victims have "normal" cholesterol. Advanced markers like ApoB and Lp(a) provide 3x better risk prediction, enabling prevention strategies that can reduce risk by up to 80%.

Apolipoprotein B
ApoB represents the number of atherogenic particles in the blood, providing superior cardiovascular risk assessment compared to traditional cholesterol measurements.
Optimal Range:
40-90 mg/dL normal; <80 mg/dL optimal; <60 mg/dL for high ca...
HDL Cholesterol
HDL cholesterol serves as a protective factor against cardiovascular disease through reverse cholesterol transport and anti-inflammatory effects. Optimal levels support cardiovascular health and metabolic function.
Optimal Range:
Male: >40 mg/dL; Female: >50 mg/dL; optimal >60 mg/dL
Homocysteine
Homocysteine is an independent cardiovascular and cognitive risk factor that reflects methylation status and B-vitamin adequacy.
Optimal Range:
<7 μmol/L optimal; <10 μmol/L acceptable; >15 μmol/L signifi...
hs-CRP
hs-CRP reveals hidden inflammation that drives chronic disease. This sensitive marker helps identify cardiovascular risk and guides anti-inflammatory interventions for optimal health.
Optimal Range:
<1.0 mg/L low risk; 1.0-3.0 mg/L moderate risk; >3.0 mg/L hi...
LDL Cholesterol
LDL cholesterol requires context of particle size, density, and oxidation status for accurate cardiovascular risk assessment. Small, dense, oxidized LDL particles pose the greatest risk.
Optimal Range:
<100 mg/dL; optimal <70 mg/dL for high-risk individuals
Lipoprotein(a)
Lp(a) is a genetically determined cardiovascular risk factor that provides permanent insight into inherited heart disease risk. Elevated levels require aggressive risk management.
Optimal Range:
<30 mg/dL; optimal <20 mg/dL
Non-HDL Cholesterol
Non-HDL cholesterol measures all atherogenic lipoproteins, providing comprehensive assessment of cardiovascular risk beyond LDL alone.
Optimal Range:
<130 mg/dL optimal; <160 mg/dL acceptable; represents total ...
Total Cholesterol
Total cholesterol provides an overview of lipid status but must be interpreted alongside other markers like HDL, particle size, and inflammatory markers for accurate cardiovascular risk assessment.
Optimal Range:
150-200 mg/dL; optimal <180 mg/dL
Total Cholesterol/HDL Ratio
The cholesterol/HDL ratio provides superior cardiovascular risk assessment by evaluating the balance between protective and atherogenic lipoproteins.
Optimal Range:
<3.5 optimal; <5.0 acceptable; >5.0 high risk
Triglycerides
Triglycerides serve as a dynamic marker of carbohydrate metabolism and insulin sensitivity, responding rapidly to dietary and lifestyle interventions.
Optimal Range:
<150 mg/dL standard; optimal <100 mg/dL; ideal <75 mg/dL
