## Description

What Is The Cardiovascular PLAC Blood Test? PLAC (LpPLA2) is a blood test which can provide an early warning of the risk of heart disease or stroke. PLAC measures levels of the LpPLA2 enzyme. This is seen as a marker for inflammation in the blood vessels, which is linked to an increase of plaque in the arteries. While testing for cholesterol and triglycerides in the blood can identify some risk factors, many people who have normal levels of cholesterol still go on to suffer heart attacks or strokes. By testing for the enzyme Lp-PLA2 you can build a better picture of whether there is plaque build-up in your arteries, which raises your risk of a cardiovascular event.Why Take This Test? You should take this test if you want to assess your risk of heart attack. If there is a family history of heart disease, high blood pressure, high cholesterol or diabetes you may also want to consider this test. Lifestyle risks to your cardiovascular health include smoking, being physically inactive, having as unhealthy diet with is high in fat and sugar and your drink more than the recommended number of alcohol units.What Is The Home Testing Process?
