Cholesterol & Lipid Profile in Dubai.
If you only ever do one screening blood test as an adult in Dubai, make it a lipid profile. Cardiovascular disease is the leading cause of death in the UAE, and South Asian and Arab populations develop it earlier and at lower cholesterol levels than European populations. This single test measures your total cholesterol, your 'good' HDL, your 'bad' LDL, your triglycerides and your ratios — giving us everything we need to calculate your 10-year cardiovascular risk and decide whether lifestyle, supplements or a statin is the right next step.
Blood tests, done properly.
Watch how longevity-grade bloods actually work at Aafiyah Care — drawn by a registered nurse at your home or our Business Bay clinic, then personally reviewed and explained by a British-trained GP. Not a PDF and a shrug. Real answers on your biomarkers, your risk, your next step.

Heart disease risk.
Cardiovascular disease is the number one killer worldwide and across the UAE. High cholesterol is silent — there are usually no symptoms until something serious happens. A lipid profile every 1–2 years is the single most cost-effective preventative test in adult medicine.

Frequently asked questions
What is a healthy cholesterol level?+
General targets: total cholesterol under 5.0 mmol/L, LDL under 3.0, HDL above 1.0 (men) or 1.2 (women), triglycerides under 1.7. We tighten those targets if you have diabetes or established heart disease.
Do I need to fast for a cholesterol test?+
Yes — 8–12 hours water-only fasting gives the most accurate triglyceride and LDL result. Total cholesterol and HDL can be measured non-fasted but full accuracy needs a fasted sample.
Can I lower my cholesterol without statins?+
Often yes — Mediterranean diet, weight loss, regular exercise and reducing saturated fat can cut LDL by 15–25%. We discuss your individual risk before recommending statins; for many people, lifestyle alone is enough.
