Those who have concern about elevated blood cholesterol or triglyceride problems related to increased risk to coronary heart disease should adhere to a Blood Lipid Lowering Standard Diet and have a Lipoprotein Fingerprinting test accomplished through their healthcare provider.

A Blood Lipid Lowering Standard Diet contains 20% saturated (soaked) fat and more than 400 mg cholesterol and has been implicated in elevations of blood cholesterol (LDL cholesterol) and an attendant increased risk for heart disease. This diet is rich in natural complex unrefined carbohydrate and fiber while low in total cholesterol. This lipid lowering approach avoids any potential problems associated with fatty acid deficiency. This diet will provide adequate levels of the vitamins and minerals.

Advanced Lipoprotein Fingerprinting is a more precise cholesterol test that allows doctors to identify health risks that traditional screens miss. The process separates lipids in the blood to create a detailed cholesterol profile that helps doctors identify patients at risk for heart disease. The detailed graph allows a doctor to precisely analyze a patient's overall risk profile and monitor the effectiveness of a diet or treatment regimen.

This advanced analytical techniques that can help doctors diagnose early warning signs for coronary heart disease, which kills more than 2,600 Americans a day, according to the American Heart Association. High LDL cholesterol is a major cause of coronary heart disease, according to the National Cholesterol Education Program.

LipidLabs refined the Advanced Lipoprotein Fingerprinting Process and the results translate to more accurate and specific data on which to make clinical judgments and guide patient therapy and prevention at reasonable costs.
