Test Overview
An LDL test is a simple blood test that measures the amount of low density lipoprotein or bad cholesterol in the blood. LDL is a protein that carries cholesterol from the liver to other parts of the body. If the amount of LDL protein in the blood is greater than the amount of HDL protein that carries cholesterol back to the liver, it may increase your risk of developing cardiovascular disease and stroke in the future. An LDL blood test measures the amount of LDL in your blood and assists the doctor in designing appropriate preventive and treatment measures.

LDL cholesterol is often mocked with the term “bad cholesterol”, not because it’s inherently bad; if present in normal amount it forms the cell membrane (outer layer of cells), however, if the amount exceeds than that of the normal, the excess LDL accumulated and gets built up on the walls of arteries and leads to blockage. The same blockage when affects the walls of arteries that supply the heart muscle, it can lead to heart diseases such as heart attacks. Hence LDL Cholesterol is often termed as the Bad Cholesterol and maintaining their optimum levels in the blood is imperative in preventing heart attacks.
