her conditions related to cholesterol imbalance. ✅ What’s Included in the Lipid Profile? Test Component Normal Range What It Indicates Total Cholesterol < 200 mg/dL Overall cholesterol in blood HDL (High-Density Lipoprotein) > 40 mg/dL (men) > 50 mg/dL (women) "Good" cholesterol – protects heart LDL (Low-Density Lipoprotein) < 100 mg/dL "Bad" cholesterol – high levels increase heart risk Triglycerides < 150 mg/dL Type of fat; high levels may raise heart disease risk VLDL (Very-Low-Density Lipoprotein) 2–30 mg/dL Carries triglycerides in blood TC/HDL Ratio < 5 (ideal: 3.5) Total cholesterol to HDL ratio – lower is better 📋 Sample Requirements Sample type: Blood (serum) Fasting required: ✅ Yes (usually 9–12 hours) unless advised otherwise Turnaround time: Same day or within 24 hours 🧍‍♀️🧍‍♂️ Why It’s Done A lipid profile is recommended for: Adults over 20 every 4–6 years (more often if at risk) People with obesity, diabetes, hypertension, or family history of heart disease Monitoring cholesterol-lowering treatment 🧪 Interpreting Results Result Meaning High LDL Increased risk of plaque buildup in arteries (atherosclerosis) Low HDL Less protection against heart disease High Triglycerides Linked to metabolic syndrome, pancreatitis, and cardiovascular issues High Total Cholesterol Often due to high LDL or triglycerides ❤️ Cholesterol Goals Based on Risk Risk Category LDL Goal Low risk < 130 mg/dL Moderate risk < 100 mg/dL High risk (e.g., diabetes, heart disease) < 70 mg/dL 🧾 Summary Table Test Ideal Range Key Insight Total Cholesterol < 200 mg/dL Overall lipid status HDL > 40/50 mg/dL Higher = better LDL < 100 mg/dL Lower = better Triglycerides < 150 mg/dL Lower = better TC/HDL Ratio < 5 Risk indicator1c:T5fd,🧪 FBS (Fasting Blood Sugar) Test The Fasting Blood Sugar (FBS) test measures the level of glucose (sugar) in the blood after an overnight fast (usually 8–12 hours). It is a basic and widely used test to screen for and monitor diabetes mellitus and
