How Our Cholesterol Testing Helps You Manage Health
You have too much cholesterol when fatty substances build up in your blood. Regular testing can reveal risks before symptoms appear.
We explain your result clearly. You learn whether your levels are healthy or need action. Our team then suggests diet changes, exercise tips or GP referral.
Monitoring your cholesterol can reduce risks of heart attack or stroke. Early detection is key to keeping you safe and well.
Understanding Your Cholesterol Numbers
Knowing your cholesterol type helps you manage it. Total cholesterol measures all fatty substances. HDL is the “good” type that removes harmful particles. LDL is the “bad” type that can block arteries.
- Healthy total cholesterol is below 5 mmol/L
- HDL should be above 1 mmol/L
- LDL should be below 3 mmol/L
Tips to Lower Cholesterol Levels
Small lifestyle shifts can make a big difference to your levels. Swap saturated fats for unsaturated fats and increase dietary fibre bhf.org.uk.
- Eat more oily fish and nuts
- Choose olive or vegetable oil
- Eat wholegrain foods daily
- Take brisk walks each day

The pharmacist made me feel at ease. My result was ready in minutes and they helped me understand what I need to do next. Very thorough service.
Fasting is not usually required. You may eat and drink normally unless you have been told otherwise by your pharmacist. A non-fasting test still gives accurate readings for most people.
If your levels are healthy, test every two years. If you have high levels or risk factors, annual tests are best. Your pharmacist will recommend a schedule based on your age, diet and family history.
Yes. Eating more fibre, reducing saturated fats, and regular exercise can cut your LDL levels. Losing weight and quitting smoking also help. We provide a tailored plan to support these changes.
If your total cholesterol remains above 6 mmol/L or your LDL is high after lifestyle changes, consult your GP. We can refer you directly if medication or further tests are needed.
