What is Lipid Profile, Non Fasting in Gurgaon?
Lipid Profile, Non Fasting assesses the amount and type of fat in the blood at an affordable price in Gurgaon with Tata 1mg labs. It measures LDL (low-density lipoprotein) cholesterol, HDL (high-density lipoprotein) cholesterol, and triglyceride levels in the body. This test also helps evaluate your cardiovascular health, especially when you have risk factors such as obesity, diabetes, and high blood pressure.
Excessive amounts of cholesterol may clog or block the blood vessels (plaque formation) and increase the risk of heart conditions, such as heart attack and stroke. A balanced diet rich in fruits, vegetables, whole grains, lean proteins, and healthy fats, such as those found in nuts and seeds, can help maintain healthy cholesterol levels. Additionally, regular exercise and an active lifestyle can also play a part in maintaining healthy weight and lowering the risk of heart disease.
