Any Lab Test Now Offering Comprehensive Cholesterol Test

May 19, 2010 - PRLog -- (Glendale, AZ – May 19, 2010)  —  Anyone who has a family history of heart disease, high blood pressure and diabetes should keep close check on their cholesterol.  Traditional cholesterol tests that measure total cholesterol, LDL, HDL and triglycerides have helped physicians assess the risk of heart disease in many patients, but these standard tests typically identify only 40% of those at risk for coronary heart disease.  Any Lab Test Now, the second fastest growing franchise according to Franchise Times Magazine, is now offering the VAP (Vertical Auto Profile) Cholesterol Test®, which provides more accurate and comprehensive results that standard Lipid Panels.

According to the American Heart Association, 50% of men and 64% of women who died suddenly of coronary heart disease had no previous symptoms and whose cholesterol values were normal in traditional Cholesterol tests.  Patients who tested at “normal” levels in routine cholesterol panels often are found to be at risk for heart disease after taking the comprehensive VAP test.  With this new information, physicians are better equipped to prescribe medication or suggest lifestyle changes to prevent heart attacks or stroke.
The VAP test identifies more lipid abnormalities, which is the #1 risk factor in heart disease.  It is also the only commercially available advanced lipid profile that routinely reports all three lipoprotein parameters considered necessary by the American Diabetes Association and American College of Cardiology expert consensus guidelines.  

“The VAP test is a simple, affordable blood test and is performed just like a traditional cholesterol panel,” said Jeri Seidel, Any Lab Test Now franchisee for the Scottsdale and Glendale locations.  “Our patients tell us that many of their insurance companies don’t cover ‘proactive testing’ and have found that with our services, they can keep check on their health if they have hereditary health risks in a fast, affordable manner.”
Any Lab Test Now offers thousands of tests including unique tests like paternity, drug testing, genetic predisposition for major diseases like cancer, diabetes, heart disease, and arthritis; toxins and poisons testing, various DNA tests including Infidelity, steroid and unknown substance testing.

Both facilities are open 8 a.m. – 6 p.m. Monday through Friday and 9 a.m. –2 p.m. on Saturday.  For more information visit: www.anylabtestnow.com/Arizona.  To reach the new Glendale facility, please call (623) 825-4564.
