Who this test is for.

Heart problems run in your family, and you want to understand more about your own blood markers while you feel well.
You’ve been told your cholesterol is borderline and want more context than the total alone.
You’ve changed how you eat or train and want a record of your cholesterol levels to compare with earlier results.

When cholesterol leaves you with questions

Heart health can feel personal when you’ve watched someone in your family deal with heart problems. You might feel well yourself, but want to understand your own blood results. Or you’ve been told your cholesterol is borderline and would like to know what sits behind that word. Having the detail explained makes those numbers easier to follow and gives you a record for the years ahead.

The usual cholesterol numbers tell you how much cholesterol your blood is carrying. ApoB looks at the number of particles that can enter artery walls. Those readings can tell different stories, which is why one cholesterol number may leave questions unanswered. Lp(a) adds information about an inherited type of particle that a cholesterol total does not identify. You can understand these differences in your own results, with explanations and a record to keep in your Helvy account.

Make sense of your own heart health markers

You shouldn’t have to recognise names such as ApoB or Lp(a) to understand your results. The report explains what each one adds, beside your cholesterol readings. Explore the example to see that detail, then keep your own results in Helvy as a reference for future cholesterol checks.

Your results stay in your Helvy account. Keep your first test as a baseline and compare selected markers if you choose to test again.

Measures

10 markers, grouped by what they reflect. Open a name to see why it is included.

Standard lipid profile

Total cholesterol

The total amount of cholesterol your blood is carrying, protective and harmful particles counted together.

HDL cholesterol

The particles that carry cholesterol back to the liver for disposal, a marker of how well that return traffic is running.

LDL cholesterol

The cholesterol carried by the particles that can lodge in artery walls.

Triglycerides

The fat your blood is transporting between meals and storage, which rises with recent food, alcohol and excess carbohydrate.

Non-HDL cholesterol

Every cholesterol-carrying particle that can enter an artery wall, in one number.

Total:HDL ratio

The balance between your total cholesterol and the protective fraction, shown for context.

Advanced cardiovascular markers

ApoB

A direct count of the particles capable of entering an artery wall, one tag per particle.

Lp(a)

An inherited variant of a cholesterol-carrying particle, set by your genes and stable for life.

hs-CRP

A protein the liver releases when something is inflamed, measured on an assay sensitive enough to pick up the low background level.

HbA1c

The proportion of your red blood cells that have sugar attached, which averages your blood glucose over about three months.

FAQ

Is this the right place to start?

Choose this panel for the included cholesterol, blood-fat and related markers. Blood results are one part of heart health; blood pressure, family history and other factors also matter. This is not a diagnosis or a complete risk assessment.

What should I know before taking my sample?

Follow the collection and preparation instructions supplied with your kit. Register your sample and record the collection time before returning it for analysis. If you take medication, ask your clinician about testing; do not stop prescribed medication for a test.

What if I can’t collect enough blood?

If your sample is insufficient for analysis, we’ll send you a replacement kit at no extra cost.

What can this test tell me?

It gives you a snapshot of the markers included in this panel. One result outside a range does not on its own mean something is medically wrong. Speak to your GP about persistent or concerning symptoms.

How will I see my results?

Your blood test results are displayed in your Helvy account. You can explore the sample report on this page to see an illustrative example before you order.

What are the limits of this panel?

Blood markers cannot show plaque in an artery or provide an all-clear for heart health. Results need context, including your blood pressure, family history and other factors.
