Quick answer
The Cholesterol and Lipid Test measures fats circulating in the blood, including total cholesterol, LDL cholesterol, HDL cholesterol, and triglycerides. These values are used to estimate cardiovascular risk and to guide prevention or treatment decisions. The test is often part of a routine health check and may be repeated when a clinician is monitoring the effect of diet, activity, or medication.
About this test in Avalon
Cholesterol is a waxy substance the body needs to build cells and hormones. It travels in the blood packaged in lipoproteins. LDL is often called bad cholesterol because higher levels are linked to artery plaque, while HDL helps carry cholesterol back to the liver.
Triglycerides are another type of blood fat that reflects recent eating patterns and energy balance. A standard panel reports all four values, and some versions also include non-HDL cholesterol or a ratio. Results are interpreted together rather than in isolation.
Testing may be ordered as part of a routine check, when a clinician assesses cardiovascular risk, or when monitoring treatment. Most people need to fast for a lipid panel, though some guidelines allow a non-fasting sample. A qualified healthcare provider should interpret the results.
