Cardiovascular
16 markers in this category
ApoA1 (Apolipoprotein A1)
ApoA1 measures your heart-protective HDL function. Higher levels support cardiovascular strength and long-term vitality for men.
ApoB (Apolipoprotein B)
ApoB counts the atherogenic particles that drive heart disease. Knowing your number helps you take targeted action to protect cardiovascular health.
CK-MB
CK-MB specifically detects heart muscle damage. Monitoring this marker supports awareness of cardiac health for men who push themselves physically.
Cholesterol/HDL Ratio
According to the NVKC, cholesterol travels through the blood in lipoproteins, small fat particles of cholesterol, triglycerides and certain proteins: LDL, bad cholesterol, brings it to the tissues and organs, and HDL, good cholesterol, carries it away to the liver.
HDL Cholesterol
Your HDL cholesterol tells you how much cholesterol is circulating in the particles that carry it back to your liver, and in men it is the value that responds most sharply to testosterone and at the same time the value least is said about.
LDL Cholesterol
According to the NVKC, LDL is a lipoprotein, a fat droplet that carries cholesterol to the tissues and organs.
LDL/HDL Ratio
The LDL/HDL ratio tells you how your LDL cholesterol relates to your HDL cholesterol: one number divided by the other.
Lipoprotein(a)
Lp(a), in full lipoprotein(a), is a cholesterol-carrying particle in the blood made of an LDL particle with the protein apolipoprotein(a) attached.
NT-proBNP
According to the NHG, when the wall of the heart's chambers comes under tension from too much pressure or too much fluid, the heart muscle cells make extra BNP, with NT-proBNP as the inactive split-off product.
Non-HDL Cholesterol
Lipoproteins are the particles that carry cholesterol through the blood, and the CVRM guideline calls the lipoproteins that carry the protein apoB the 'bad' ones.
Omega 3 + 6
The omega-3/omega-6 balance directly affects inflammation and cardiovascular health. Optimising this ratio supports recovery, joint health, and long-term vitality.
Omega-3 Index
The Omega-3 Index measures your cardiovascular protection level from omega-3 fats. Optimal levels support heart health, inflammation control, and overall vitality.
Oxidized LDL
oxLDL is the most damaging form of cholesterol for your arteries. Monitoring it helps target the root cause of plaque build-up.
Total Cholesterol
Total cholesterol gives a quick overview of your lipid status. Combined with HDL and LDL, it helps men understand and manage cardiovascular health.
Triglycerides
Triglycerides reflect your body's fat metabolism efficiency. Managing levels supports cardiovascular health, energy, and a lean body composition.
Troponin T (Cardiac)
Troponin is a protein in the heart muscle that lets the muscle cells contract and normally stays inside those cells.
