Triglyceride is a common type of fat found in the body, created when our body holds excess calories, alcohol and sugars. Cholesterol is a fat-like substance that can be found in every cell of the body. Good cholesterol (High-Density Lipoprotein) helps to remove excess bad cholesterol (Low-Density Lipoprotein) from the body. Bad cholesterol may build up in the arteries causing them to become hard and narrow and increasing the risk of experiencing a heart attack or a stroke.

1. Total Triglycerides: Triglyceride is a common type of fat found in the body and is created when our body holds excess calories, alcohol and sugars. High triglycerides are often a sign of conditions such as obesity and metabolic syndrome, which increase the risk of heart disease and stroke.
2. Cholesterol: Total cholesterol is the overall amount of cholesterol in your blood.
3. HDL (High-Density Lipoprotein): HDL is good cholesterol which helps to remove excess bad cholesterol (LDL) from the body and decreases the risk of having heart problems and stroke.
4. LDL (Low-Density Lipoprotein): LDL is bad cholesterol which can build up in the arteries causing them to become hard and narrow and increasing the risk of experiencing a heart attack or a stroke.
5. Non-HDL Cholesterol: Non-HDL cholesterol is calculated by subtracting the number of HDL cholesterol in the blood from the total cholesterol.
6. HDL Ratio: The TC:HDL ratio is a measure of the level of good cholesterol (HDL) in the blood compared to the overall cholesterol level.
