Protect Your Heart with the Apolipoprotein A1 Test
We understand that heart health concerns can be worrying, especially when you have a family history or notice symptoms that make you pause. Many South Africans experience chest discomfort, fatigue, or simply want peace of mind about their cardiovascular health. The Apolipoprotein A1 test provides the clarity you need to take control of your heart’s future.
Understanding Your Apolipoprotein A1 Test
Apolipoprotein A1 is often called your ‘good cholesterol’ protein – it’s the main component of HDL cholesterol that helps protect your arteries from plaque buildup. Think of it as your heart’s natural cleaning crew, working to remove harmful cholesterol from your blood vessels. Unlike standard cholesterol tests that only measure total numbers, this test specifically evaluates the quality and quantity of your protective cholesterol proteins.
Our advanced immunoturbidimetry method ensures precise, reliable results you can trust for making important health decisions.

This test is especially important if you experience:
