Good Cholesterol?

Non-HDLe.g. LDL, low-density lipoprotein

"Bad" cholesterol

Builds up in your artery walls, increases risk of heart attack and stroke.

HDLhigh-density lipoprotein

"Good" cholesterol

Helps remove cholesterol from your bloodstream.

The PocDoc Healthy Heart Check can measure them independently — for a proper picture of your heart.

Cholesterol itself is a single molecule, but it travels through your blood attached to lipoproteins — and those are what get measured and labelled as "types". That means a total cholesterol reading only gives you your good AND bad cholesterol added together.
