Check your LDL cholesterol levels with our Low Density Lipoprotein Blood Test.
Assess heart health and risk of cardiovascular diseases. Fast, accurate results with no GP referral needed. Measure the lipoprotein that transports cholesterol from the liver to the tissues of the body. A high LDL level leads to a build up of Cholesterol in the arteries. Most of the biomarkers we offer in the "ready made" panels are also available separately. So if your favourite test panel is missing a biomarker you would like to have, no problem, you can add whatever you need to one of our standard panels using the "Pick-n-mix" options, such as this one.
Key Details
Who Is This For?

What's Included
Preparation Required
Fasting for 10–12 hours before your appointment is recommended for accurate results (water is fine). Avoid alcohol for 24 hours and intense exercise for 12 hours before the blood draw. Morning appointments are ideal for consistent hormone and glucose readings. The blood draw typically takes 5–10 minutes.
Biomarkers Tested
1The combined measure of all cholesterol in your blood, including HDL, LDL, and VLDL. While useful as an overview, the breakdown between HDL and LDL is more clinically meaningful for assessing cardiovascular risk.
