The combination of the Homocysteine, Cardio C-Reactive Protein, and VIP Plus makes this the most comprehensive health assessment HealthCheckUSA has to offer. Highly recommended for individuals looking to establish or keep track of overall baseline levels.
This expanded cholesterol test provides valuable information that can identify hidden heart disease risks, including inherited risk factors that can lead to premature heart disease. VAP identifies more than 90% of people at risk for cardiovascular disease, compared to 40% for routine cholesterol screenings.
The VAP test measures total cholesterol, high-density lipoprotein (good) cholesterol (HDL), low-density lipoprotein (bad) cholesterol (LDL), and triglycerides. VAP also measures other cholesterol subclasses that play important roles in the development of heart disease. These other subclasses include:
· Very low density lipoprotein (VLDL)
· Intermediate density lipoprotein (IDL)
· Lp(a): LDL plus the apo(a) protein
* For males, it is recommended to add a PSA test for complete assessment.

· Low-density lipoprotein (bad) cholesterol (LDL)
· Very low density lipoprotein (VLDL)
· Intermediate density lipoprotein (IDL)
· Lp(a) ― LDL plus the apo(a) protein
· Triglycerides
