Description

Lipid Check – Deine Blutfette im Überblick.

Erhöhte Blutfettwerte sind ein wichtiger Risikofaktor für Herz-Kreislauf-Erkrankungen wie Arteriosklerose, Herzinfarkt oder Schlaganfall. Mit dem Lipid Check erhältst du einen klaren Überblick über deine Cholesterinwerte und Triglyceride – bequem von zu Hause und professionell im Labor ausgewertet.

A capillary blood sample in a tube is all you need to determine your relevant blood lipid levels. You’ll receive your results securely and digitally with clear reference ranges.

Measured parameters

LDL cholesterol: “Bad” cholesterol, increases the risk of arteriosclerosis, heart attack, and stroke.
HDL cholesterol: "Good" cholesterol, protects the heart and blood vessels.
Gesamtcholesterin: Total amount of cholesterol in the blood; important for risk assessment.
Triglycerides: Energy reserve in the blood; high levels increase the risk of cardiovascular disease.

Cardiovascular disease is the number one cause of death

Blood lipids can be detected and lowered decades before a heart attack

What is it?

LDL cholesterol carries cholesterol to the tissues. It is the most important modifiable risk factor for atherosclerosis, i.e. deposits in the vessel walls.

Who should test

Useful from middle age, with a family history of heart attack or stroke, high blood pressure, diabetes, smoking or excess weight.

Possible signs

High values cause no symptoms. They are usually found through complications or targeted check-ups.

How to read it

The higher LDL stays over the years, the higher the cardiovascular risk. Targets depend on overall risk; ESC/EAS guidelines suggest below 116 mg/dl (3.0 mmol/l) for healthy adults.

Next steps

Have high values assessed with a medical risk evaluation. Diet, exercise and quitting smoking lower LDL; medication is an option at high risk.

General orientation only. This does not replace medical advice or diagnosis.
