ADVANCED LIPID PARTICLE TESTING Cholesterol comes from both dietary sources AND is manufactured by our own bodies. While diet and lifestyle are important determinants of cholesterol levels, often times additional measures are needed to lower cholesterol and reduce risk of heart disease and stroke. Traditional Cholesterol Testing, LDL, HDL etc. often underestimate cardiovascular risk in many patients. Use of "advanced cholesterol testing" helps to further evaluate risk in many patients who need further testing.
