Your genetics play a significant role in how your body produces and stores cholesterol—more than diet alone. The Advanced Lipid Panel with Lp(a) and HS-CRP goes beyond a standard lipid test to provide a comprehensive evaluation of your cardiovascular health. This panel includes all the tests in a fasting lipid panel plus detailed insights into LDL and HDL subclasses, directly measuring LDL, LDL particle number, and LDL pattern type. It also includes Lipoprotein(a) [Lp(a)], a cholesterol type linked to an increased risk of heart disease. Additionally, this test measures high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (HS-CRP), a key marker of chronic inflammation that can elevate the risk of early stroke and heart attack. Understanding your lipid profile and inflammation levels can help you take a proactive approach to heart health, especially if you have a family history of heart disease or want to optimize your cardiovascular wellness.

HS-CRP is typically a $50 test, but we’ve included it in this panel at a discounted price to give you even greater insight into your heart health.

Reasons to Check It:

"The most accurate results of this test are obtained if you fast for 10-12 hours and avoid alcohol the day before the test.

Blood vessel disease is caused by progressive cholesterol-laden plaques building up in the arteries of the body, which leads to segmental blockages.  These blockages most frequently occur in the arteries of the heart, the brain, and the lower extremities. Once present in one part of the body, it is known that other arteries will build up plaque and blockages as well.  

Heart attacks and strokes are the two most common and dangerous problems that can result from these blockages.  Heart attacks occur when there is a build-up of cholesterol and plaque (atherosclerosis) inside the arteries that supply blood to the heart.  Strokes occur when this build-up is inside the arteries that supply blood to the brain." - Dr. Alan Hopkins
