VLDL
VLDL is a clinical biomarker on the Liver panel, reported in mg/dL. Standard reference range: 0–30 mg/dL. Functional (optimal) range used by integrative practitioners: 5–20 mg/dL.
What is VLDL?
Very low-density lipoprotein (VLDL) transports endogenously synthesized triglycerides from the liver to peripheral tissues; elevated VLDL contributes to atherogenic dyslipidemia.
Reference ranges
| Range type | Value (mg/dL) | Source |
|---|---|---|
| Standard (lab) | 0–30 | Typical Quest / LabCorp adult reference |
| Functional (optimal) | 5–20 | Integrative / functional medicine consensus |
How SomaVue interprets VLDL
SomaVue maps every result for VLDL against four clinical lenses — nutrient cofactors, toxin exposure, infection drivers, and circadian/hormonal context — and connects each interpretation to specific peer-reviewed citations. Pre-mapped clinical reasoning and cross-marker pattern detection are available inside the practitioner workspace.
