Clarify what your tests do and do not show
You may have results. But do you know what they do not show? Clarify is a structured heart risk audit that helps you organise what is known, identify what may be missing, including Lipoprotein(a) (Lp(a)), sometimes called stealth cholesterol, and prepare useful questions for your health team.
A structured heart risk audit starts with what you know
A standard cholesterol test is foundational, but it is not a complete heart risk assessment. Clarify starts with the results, questions, family history, or appointment experience you already have, then helps you identify risk information that may still be missing.
Clarify works within this shared Navigator flow. It concentrates on building an accurate record of what is known, making missing information visible, and preparing useful health team discussions.
Who Clarify is for
You have heart risk or testing questions, upcoming tests, test results, worrying family history, an appointment with your health team, or concern about heart attack, stroke, or avoidable cardiovascular damage. You want clarity about your situation.
Normal results, unresolved concerns
Your cholesterol result looked normal, but your worry has not gone away because you know, suspect, or feel that important risk information is still missing.
Your family's history of heart disease deserves your attention
A parent, sibling, child, or other close blood relative has had a heart attack, stroke, bypass, stent, or valve disease early in life.
Hidden or unfamiliar risks have raised new questions
You want to know whether hidden or unfamiliar risks such as Lipoprotein(a) (Lp(a)), ApoB, plaque, inflammation, or clot are increasing your risk and in what ways.
Results give some numbers without clear answers
Standard lipid panels give numbers for total cholesterol, LDL-C, HDL-C, and triglycerides, but not for Lp(a), ApoB, inflammation, insulin resistance, plaque, or family history. You may need fuller risk information and context to support an informed discussion with your health team.
Appointments come and go, but your questions remain
Your last appointment was short, rushed, confusing, or incomplete. You did not ask the questions or get the answers that matter to you. You want your next appointment to include informed questions, clear risk information, useful decisions, and an agreed next action.
You, your family, or loved ones may be at risk
A parent, child, sibling, or other blood relative may share inherited risk that deserves your attention. A partner or other loved one may have heart risk of their own that also needs to be understood and addressed.
What Clarify does
Clarify helps you organise what is known, identify what may still be unknown, and turn this into useful questions, conversations, and a clearer next action with your health team.
Organise accurate heart risk information
Organise lab results, test details, test dates, family history, appointment notes, and factual risk context in one place, so this information is accessible and can be shared with your health team.
Identify missing or disconnected risk information
Identify important information that may be missing, unknown, unresolved, or disconnected, including Lp(a), ApoB, blood pressure, plaque, inflammation, clotting, insulin resistance, valve calcification, or family history, so you can prepare what you want to discuss with your health team.
A standard lipid test may not be enough for you
Standard lipid testing is useful, but it has limits. Depending on what is known and unknown, your risk context may call for other tests such as Lp(a), ApoB, blood pressure, glucose or insulin resistance, inflammation, plaque, or valve assessment. Testing choices should be discussed and decided with your health team.
Prepare informed risk questions early, before a crisis
Recording what you know and do not know gives you the foundation to prepare informed questions and focus the conversation with your health team. Avoid guessing, online searching in a panic, or being misled by misinformation. Discuss everything important with your health team early to reach clear decisions, so you can take the right next action.
Help your health team to help you as much as possible
Health teams work with limited time, incomplete records, and competing priorities. Sharing organised information, test results, family history, symptoms, questions, concerns, and goals helps them understand what matters, focus the appointment, and support useful conversations and clear decisions.
Take early informed action to reduce risk
Many people delay prevention because nothing hurts, bad news feels frightening, time is scarce, costs are unclear, or daily life gets in the way. But waiting for a heart attack, stroke, or other damaging cardiovascular event before acting can lead to worse outcomes, higher costs, and missed chances to reduce risk and lower the chance of a future event.
What Clarify helps you take forward
Clarify is more than a list of possible tests. It helps you build a concise heart risk audit organised around the shared Navigator flow.
Clear boundary: Clarify does not calculate or interpret your individual risk, decide which tests you need, or generate medical recommendations. It improves the accuracy, organisation, and continuity of the information you bring to health team decisions.
Hidden or incomplete heart risk
A standard lipid panel is invaluable, but it does not cover every risk that matters. Lipoprotein(a) (Lp(a)), sometimes called stealth cholesterol, is inherited, elevated in about 1 in 5 people, and not included in a standard cholesterol test. Clarify helps you organise what your current results show, what they do not show, and what you may want to discuss with your health team.
Usually visible in standard tests
- Total cholesterol
- LDL-C, often called “bad” cholesterol
- HDL-C, often called “good” cholesterol
- Triglycerides
- Sometimes Non-HDL-C
Missing or disconnected
- information not included in a standard lipid panel, such as Lp(a), ApoB, and particle-related risk context
- wider risk information such as blood pressure, family history, plaque, insulin resistance, inflammation, and clotting
- lifestyle and environmental information such as sleep deprivation, tobacco use, poor diet, lack of exercise, excessive alcohol, chronic stress, fine particulate air pollution, extreme temperatures, and toxic chemical or heavy metal exposures
Plus: whether enough context exists to understand what the results can and cannot establish.
Clarify does not tell you which tests you personally need. It helps you organise the context and prepare an informed conversation about what your health team may consider ordering, including Lp(a) or ApoB where relevant.
Other risk areas that require your attention
Heart risk is not only about cardiometabolic numbers or test results. Inherited risks, daily habits, and environmental exposures can all affect what needs to be understood, discussed, tested, or acted on.
Inherited risks demand timely attention
Inherited risks include high Lp(a), familial hypercholesterolaemia (FH), arrhythmias, cardiomyopathy, and valve or aortic disease. Some inherited risks can start affecting the heart and blood vessels early in life, then compound over the following years. Early heart attack, stroke, or heart surgery in the family can be important warning signs.
Daily habits can compound into risk or protection
Smoking, inactivity, poor diet, harmful alcohol use, poor sleep, and chronic stress can raise heart risk. Quitting tobacco, moving more, improving diet, reducing alcohol intake, and protecting sleep can improve several risk factors at once.
Your environment can amplify heart risk
Air pollution, traffic exposure, noise, heat and climate extremes, toxic chemicals, light at night, limited green space, and neighbourhood stress can increase cardiovascular strain. These exposures may worsen blood pressure, inflammation, clotting, rhythm problems, and the risk of heart attack or stroke.
The Heart Risk Navigator System
Core flow: Known → Unknown → To discuss → Next action. Wider journey: Recognise → Clarify → Navigate → Prevent → Protect. Clarify, Navigate, and Prevent are the three products. They work separately and together, and you do not have to use them in a fixed order.

You are hereNavigate
Examine how several risks may relate, which must remain separate, and what still requires health team interpretation before the next action is agreed.
Navigate my risksPrevent
Carry out agreed action, record and report results, and continue the heart risk prevention loop as results become part of what is known.
Prevent risksWhat is included in Clarify
Information, tools, and structured records that help you organise what is known, identify what is unknown, prepare what needs to be discussed, and record the next action agreed with your health team.

Frequently asked questions.
Do I need cholesterol results to use Clarify?
No. Clarify can help when you have test results, upcoming tests, family history, an appointment experience, an Lp(a) question, or a specific concern. Use the Heart Risk Navigator path that best matches what you need to understand or act on now.
Is Clarify medical advice?
No. Clarify provides educational information, tools, preparation, and structured guidance for informed conversations. It does not diagnose, treat, provide personalised medical advice, or replace your health team.
What is stealth cholesterol?
“Stealth cholesterol” is a plain language description for Lipoprotein(a) (Lp(a)). It is called stealth cholesterol because it is inherited, is not included in a standard cholesterol test, and may remain unknown unless it is specifically measured.
How is Clarify different from searching online?
Online searches can provide lists and explanations. Clarify helps you build a structured heart risk audit organised around what is known, what remains unknown, what needs to be discussed, and the next action agreed with your health team.
How is Clarify different from a heart risk calculator?
A risk calculator estimates risk from a defined set of inputs. Clarify does not calculate, score, or interpret individual risk. It helps you organise which relevant information is known, which information may be missing, what needs discussion, and the next action agreed with your health team.
What happens after Clarify?
Clarify is complete on its own. If it surfaces several risks that need to be examined together, Navigate helps organise relationships, unresolved questions, and what needs discussion. Prevent supports sustained action, records and reports results, and continues the heart risk prevention loop.
Can I skip Clarify and Navigate and go straight to Prevent?
Yes. If you already understand your risks and need a system to execute sustained preventive action, you can choose Prevent. The products are useful on their own and complement each other.
Does HeartFirst guarantee Clarify will prevent a heart attack or stroke?
Clarify cannot guarantee a health outcome. It helps you organise what you know, identify what remains unknown, prepare useful conversations with your health team, and record the next action agreed with them.
Your risk information may have gaps. Clarify can help.
Understand what your current results show and do not show. Identify what may be missing. Prepare for useful conversations with your health team.
