Lipidgen near me in Kochi

The Lipidgen test is a blood test used to screen the genetic risk of hypercholesterolemia, a condition with high blood cholesterol levels. It's a polygenic risk score (PRS) screening that screens for 223 markers to generate a PRS score. This test can be performed on all individuals above eighteen years of age, including those with a family history of hypercholesterolemia. It helps you to manage your heart disease and stroke at the early stages before your body starts to show symptoms and thereby helps to reduce the possibility of getting a heart attack or stroke at a young age. Measures such as regular screening of lipid levels and certain lifestyle changes such as eating a balanced diet, maintaining a healthy weight, etc. may help improve your overall well-being and lower your genetic risk of hypercholesterolemia.
