LDL Cholesterol Test Near Me

What is an LDL (Bad Cholesterol) test?

Created in the liver from fats in our diet, Cholesterol is a form of fat that our bodies use to create cells, hormones, and vitamin D. Cholesterol does not dissolve in the bloodstream – instead, it bonds to carriers called lipoproteins, which transport it between cells.

However, not all cholesterol is created equal. There are two main types of cholesterol carried by lipoproteins: Low-density lipoproteins (LDL) and High-density lipoproteins (HDL).

LDL is commonly referred to as “bad” cholesterol because it can build up on the walls of your arteries and increase chances of getting cardiovascular disease. HDL cholesterol, commonly regarded as “good” cholesterol, takes the “bad” LDL cholesterol out of your blood and keeps it from building up in your arteries. Collectively, these different kinds of cholesterol and other fats in blood are known as lipids.
