Overview
Some of the various lipids in our body include cholesterol, triglycerides, high-density lipoprotein (HDL), low-density lipoprotein (LDL) and very-low-density lipoprotein (VLDL). All these types of lipids are considered as "bad cholesterol". Therefore, Maintaining normal levels of such lipids is a good way to protect yourself from complications such as high blood pressure, cholesterol, and hypertension. Moreover, if the uncontrolled levels of such lipids in your body are persistent for too long, you are likely suffering from various heart or kidney diseases.
If you are going for a lipid profile test, a total of 10 tests will be performed on your blood sample. They are as follows:
- LDL Cholesterol direct
- Total Cholesterol
- HDL Cholesterol
- Triglycerides
- Serum VLDL Cholesterol
- LDL/HDL Ratio
- TC/HDL Cholesterol Ratio
- Non-HDL Cholesterol
- HDL/LDL Cholesterol Ratio
- TRIG/HDL Ratio
Test Necessity
A lipid profile test can give a lot of insight into your health. It is usually prescribed by your doctor if you are at risk of heart disease or suffering from high cholesterol. A lipid profile test can tell if you have abnormal levels of cholesterol so that timely treatment can be done.
Following are some health conditions where a lipid profile test can be useful for better analysis:
- Diabetes
- HIV/AIDS
- Hypertension
- Hypothyroidism
- Chronic kidney disease
Test Preparation
If you are going for a lipid profile test, 10 hours of fasting is required before the test is done. This means that you are not allowed to eat or drink during this time up to the time of sample collection. However, you can drink water.
During the Lipid Profile Test

The normal values, parameters, and reference ranges of the test may vary from lab to lab. Please refer to the ranges mentioned in the report and consult a doctor to understand the interpretation of lab reports.
Test Result Interpretation
The four main components of the lipid profile test are Total Cholesterol, Triglycerides, HDL and LDL.
The Total Cholesterol to HDL ratio is not more important than the actual values. If the lipid profile report has a higher than usual reading for Total Cholesterol, it is diagnostic of dyslipidaemia. Dyslipidaemia, if left unchecked, increases the chances of atherosclerosis and subsequent heart attacks.
