A high cholesterol level is one of the main risk factors for coronary heart disease, which is the leading cause of death in Western countries.
SelfDiagnosis supplies home test kits for both Total cholesterol and HDL cholesterol, which is also known as “good” cholesterol.
Research has shown that the Total cholesterol/HDL cholesterol ratio is a more meaningful measure than only Total cholesterol when trying to determine the risk factor for coronary heart disease.
