Heart disease is one of the leading causes of death in Canada, often developing silently before symptoms appear. However, early detection through specialized blood tests can identify risk factors before they lead to serious complications. At Health Today in Calgary, we provide advanced cardiovascular blood tests that help assess heart health and guide proactive prevention strategies.
Heart disease doesn’t always present clear warning signs. By the time symptoms appear, significant damage may have already occurred. Cardiovascular blood tests can detect hidden risk factors, including inflammation, high cholesterol, and genetic predispositions, giving you the chance to make necessary lifestyle and medical changes.
According to the Heart and Stroke Foundation, 80% of premature heart disease cases are preventable through early screening and risk management. Blood tests offer a simple, non-invasive way to monitor heart health before problems arise.

Lipid Profile (Cholesterol Testing in Calgary)
This test measures LDL (“bad”) cholesterol, HDL (“good”) cholesterol, and triglycerides. High LDL and triglyceride levels are major risk factors for heart disease.
High-Sensitivity C-Reactive Protein (hs-CRP) Test
Inflammation plays a critical role in heart disease. The hs-CRP test detects chronic inflammation in blood vessels, which can indicate an increased risk of heart attack or stroke.
Lipoprotein(a) Test (Lp(a))
Lp(a) is a genetic risk factor for heart disease that is not detected in standard cholesterol tests. High Lp(a) levels increase the risk of heart attacks, strokes, and blood clots.
Homocysteine Test for Heart Health
Elevated homocysteine levels are linked to blood vessel damage and increased clotting risks. This test helps assess stroke and cardiovascular disease risk.
Blood Sugar and A1C Test (Diabetes Screening in Calgary)
Uncontrolled blood sugar contributes to heart disease, nerve damage, and kidney disease. The A1C test provides an overview of blood sugar levels over the past 3 months to assess diabetes risk.
NT-proBNP Test (Heart Failure Marker)
This test measures a protein released by the heart under stress and helps identify early signs of heart failure, even before symptoms appear.

Cardiovascular testing assesses heart health by detecting risk factors like high cholesterol, inflammation markers, and diabetes screening. Early detection helps prevent heart disease before symptoms appear.
Common early signs include shortness of breath, chest discomfort, fatigue, dizziness, and high blood pressure. However, many people experience no symptoms, making preventive screening essential.
