HDLC blood test is done to evaluate the total cholesterol and triglycerides levels for the determination of lipid risk factors for coronary artery disease. High-density lipoprotein cholesterol is sometimes called “good” cholesterol. HDL cholesterol helps remove LDL cholesterol from the body by binding with it in the bloodstream and carrying it back to the liver for disposal. A high level of HDL cholesterol appears to lower a person's risk of developing heart disease and stroke.
High-Density Lipoprotein Cholesterol (HDLC) blood test is the standard Lipid Panel test that is most commonly run in the USA. However, more advanced testing is available at LabSafe.
