About this test
What Is an HDL Cholesterol Test?
The HDL cholesterol test measures the level of high-density lipoprotein (HDL) in your blood. HDL is commonly referred to as "good" cholesterol due to its protective role in heart health.
Importance of HDL Cholesterol
HDL cholesterol helps remove excess cholesterol from the bloodstream, transporting it to the liver for elimination. Higher levels of HDL are associated with a lower risk of heart disease and stroke.
Maintaining Healthy HDL Levels
Healthy HDL levels support cardiovascular health and help prevent the buildup of plaque in the arteries. Regular exercise, a balanced diet, and lifestyle changes can improve HDL levels.
