NMR LipoProfile® With Lipids and Insulin Resistance Markers (With Graph)

Diagnostic Blood Test:NMR LipoProfile® With Lipids and Insulin Resistance Markers (With Graph), includes: Total Cholesterol HDL-P (total) Large HDL-P LDL-P Small LDL-P LDL-C Large VLDL-P HDL-C HDL Size LDL Size VLDL Size Triglycerides LP-IR Score LDL-P is the direct measure of low density lipoprotein particles - the causal link between high levels of LDL-P and development of cardiovascular disease (CVD) is well established.HDL-P is the direct measure of high density lipoprotein particles; it has been shown to be more strongly and independently related to atherosclerotic risk than high density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C).The lipoprotein insulin resistance (LP-IR) score assesses an individual’s insulin resistance level and diabetes risk. Insulin is a molecule that helps cells absorb sugar and use it as fuel. Insulin resistance occurs when cells don’t respond well to this hormone. Over time, insulin resistance may lead to prediabetes or diabetes. Total Cholesterol measures the leve
