A complete at-home cholesterol blood test — LDL, HDL, non-HDL, total cholesterol, ratios and triglycerides. UKAS-accredited UK lab, clear private results. From £49.
A cholesterol blood test is one of the most useful — and affordable — numbers to have for long-term heart health. Rather than a single figure, this at-home test measures six lipid markers so you can see how diet, training and lifestyle are actually affecting your cardiovascular markers.
We give you access to your data — not medical advice. This test returns laboratory results and general information only. It is not a diagnosis, a treatment or a clinical opinion. No clinician reviews or comments on your results before they reach you — you receive your numbers against standard reference ranges, and interpreting them is for you and your GP. If a result falls outside the reference range, or you feel unwell, contact your GP; in an emergency call 111 or 999. You must be 18 or over to order.
This panel measures 6 biomarkers across 1 area, analysed in a UKAS-accredited UK laboratory. Every marker is listed in full below.
Anyone wanting a cardiovascular baseline, those making diet or training changes who want to see if they’re working, and people with a family history of high cholesterol. Pairs well with our nutrition guidance and the Ultimate Longevity panel for advanced cardiovascular markers.
Finger-prick samples are occasionally rejected by the laboratory because there is too little blood or the sample is too old to test, which means starting again. Four things make that far less likely: collect in the morning, warm your hands first (run them under warm water and let them hang down for a minute), drink plenty of water beforehand, and post the sample back the same day you take it — never on a Friday or Saturday, so it does not sit in the postal system over a weekend.
Who should not use a home kit: if you take anticoagulants, have a bleeding or clotting disorder, or feel faint at the sight of blood, speak to your GP before testing and consider a clinic-collected panel instead. If bleeding does not stop after firm pressure, seek medical advice.
Your report shows each lipid marker against its reference range, plus the ratios clinicians look at. Cholesterol responds strongly to diet, bodyweight, alcohol, activity and genetics, so a baseline now and a re-test after any change tells you whether your approach is working. This test is for information and monitoring, not diagnosis — discuss anything outside range with your GP. Your results are private. They are handled as confidential health data and delivered to you securely. They are shared only with our laboratory partner in order to process your test, and otherwise never without your consent.
For the most accurate triglyceride reading, a 10–12 hour fast (water only) beforehand is recommended. The other markers are less affected by food.
The total-cholesterol-to-HDL ratio is a widely used indicator; lower is generally better. Your report shows your ratio against its reference range, and your GP can interpret it in the context of your overall risk.
Diet, activity, bodyweight and reducing alcohol can all move these markers. Re-testing after a few months is the clearest way to see the effect. Always take clinical decisions with your doctor.
Typicallysent as soon as the laboratory reports them of the lab receiving your sample, delivered as a secure private report.
Yes — it is analysed in the same UKAS-accredited UK laboratory as clinic samples.
