The lipid panel of a blood test measures the total cholesterol in blood. This consists of the four
types of lipids in blood, which include those considered as “good” and “bad” cholesterol.
Besides, the body stores excess calories by creating triacylglycerols, which are stored in fat cells.
The amounts of lipids in the human body are very important since researchers suggest that
saturated fats and cholesterol are associated with diseases.
