Cuautitlán Izcalli, Mexico - November 11, 2023 /PressCable/ —

Certolab in Plaza San Miguel, Cuautitlan Izcalli has announced that its glucose, cholesterol, and triglycerides tests are available for online ordering from the comfort of home.

Glucose, cholesterol, and triglycerides are three substances related to the health and functioning of the human body. They are three interconnected elements that can mutually influence each other in the context of cardiovascular and metabolic health.

In combating or diagnosing disease, it's a must for patients to understand where they stand in terms of the delicate balance of these elements. Certolab helps patients obtain accurate, reliable and trustworthy results for a proper diagnosis, with an ISO 9001:2015 certified quality management system.

Starting with glucose, it is a type of sugar that serves as the main source of energy for the body's cells. Glucose is an essential component in the blood and is obtained mainly from food, especially carbohydrates.

Cholesterol is a lipid, a fat-like substance, found in all cells of the body. It plays several important roles, such as the formation of cell membranes, the synthesis of hormones (such as estrogen and testosterone), the production of vitamin D, and the formation of bile acids to aid in the digestion of fats. It circulates in the blood bound to proteins, forming particles called lipoproteins. The two main lipoproteins are LDL (low-density lipoproteins) and HDL (high-density lipoproteins).

Finally, triglycerides are another type of lipid or form of fat found in the blood and in foods. They are an important source of energy for the body and are stored in adipose cells (fat tissue) for later use. Triglycerides come from the diet, but the body can also synthesize them from glucose and other energy sources.

How are they related to each other?

The relationship between glucose, cholesterol, and triglycerides is complex and can mutually influence each other due to dietary, lifestyle, and genetic factors. For example, a diet high in sugars and simple carbohydrates can raise blood glucose levels and increase triglyceride levels. Additionally, obesity and insulin resistance (a condition in which cells do not respond properly to insulin) can be related to abnormal levels of glucose, cholesterol, and triglycerides. Therefore, it is important to maintain a proper balance of these components through a balanced diet, regular exercise, and medical care to prevent health problems such as diabetes and cardiovascular diseases.

Relationship between glucose and triglycerides:

When one consumes carbohydrates in the diet, they break down into glucose. If an excessive amount of carbohydrates is consumed, especially refined carbohydrates and simple sugars (monosaccharides), the level of glucose in the blood can rise above a healthy level.

If blood glucose levels are chronically elevated due to excessive carbohydrate consumption or issues such as insulin resistance or diabetes, the body can convert excess glucose into triglycerides and store them in adipose cells for later use as an energy source.

Thus, elevated glucose levels can contribute to increased blood triglycerides.

Relationship between glucose and cholesterol:

Diabetes and insulin resistance can cause an imbalance in blood glucose levels. Elevated glucose levels can damage arteries and increase the risk of atherosclerosis (plaque buildup in the arteries).

The increased risk of atherosclerosis can lead to elevated levels of LDL (bad cholesterol) in the blood, as LDL tends to deposit in the damaged areas of the arteries, contributing to the development of cardiovascular diseases.

Relationship between triglycerides and cholesterol:

Elevated blood triglyceride levels are often associated with elevated levels of LDL (bad cholesterol) and low levels of HDL (good cholesterol).

When triglycerides are high, it is more likely that there will be an imbalance in lipoproteins, which increases the risk of atherosclerosis and cardiovascular diseases.

The relationship between glucose, cholesterol, and triglycerides is complex and can mutually influence each other due to dietary, lifestyle, and genetic factors. For example, a diet high in sugars and simple carbohydrates can raise blood glucose levels and increase triglyceride levels. Additionally, obesity and insulin resistance (a condition in which cells do not respond properly to insulin) can be related to abnormal levels of glucose, cholesterol, and triglycerides. Therefore, it is important to maintain a proper balance of these components through a balanced diet, regular exercise, and medical care that includes regular monitoring of the levels of these substances through blood tests at a prestigious laboratory such as Certolab San Miguel Medical Laboratory to prevent health problems such as diabetes and cardiovascular diseases.

Certolab San Miguel asserts its role in the global battle against diabetes and heart disease with cholesterol, glucose and triglyceride tests available for simple and convenient online ordering.

Lady Bulldogs rout Lady Chiefs for 3rd straight win in SSL Unity Cup

MANILA, Philippines — Five-peat-seeking National University swept Arellano University, 25-12, 25-16, 25-14, for a third straight win in the 2026 Shakey’s Super League (SSL) Unity Cup on Saturday at the Rizal Memorial Coliseum.  The Lady Bulldogs survived a tough challenge early in the second set before cruising the rest of the way to remain unbeaten in Pool A of the league’s centerpiece competition, backed by Shakey’s Pizza Parlor, Peri-Peri Charcoal Chicken, Potato Corner and R&B Milk Tea.

Celine Marsh added eight points, Arah Panique had seven markers while Denesse Daylisan scored six for the Lady Bulldogs, who completed a sweep of their back-to-back assignments and inched closer to securing a playoffs seat.     NU found itself struggling at the start of the second frame and trailed the Lady Chiefs, 7-11, after a Samantha Maranan offspeed attack. The Lady Bulldogs answered with nine straight points capped by a Daylisan kill for a 16-11 lead to take control of the frame. Smelling blood, NU dictated the tempo of the third set and built an insurmountable 20-9 advantage on its way to closing an 85-minute victory.

EJ Obiena urges better facilities to sustain Philippine sports' golden era

EJ Obiena urges better facilities to sustain Philippine sports' golden era

MANILA, Philippines — Olympian EJ Obiena believes Philippine sports are in their golden era, but access to quality facilities remains a major limiting factor for athletes. The two-time Asian Games gold medalist emphasized the critical need for better support during a recent Committee on Sports hearing. “I think sports in general, accessibility is the key. I think Philippine sports are in their golden age right now. We have so many world-class athletes, and I am just very proud that I am part of this era. I hope it gets better and better,” Obiena said.  “I think what’s limiting us is the access to facilities. It is one of the reasons why I train outside, not just because of the knowledge there, but also the current situation of the facilities that we have.” Obiena understood that everyone is trying to upscale the sports program, but compared to the other countries, the scale of support is way too different. “I think everybody is doing their best. I have traveled from quite different countries, and I understand that the support in our country is not as big as what I said. In terms of the general budget…” Obiena trained at the University of Santo Tomas athletics team before he moved to Formia, Italy in 2014 to train under renowned Ukrainian coach Vitaly Petrov. He stayed in Italy for more than a decade, where it shaped him into the first-ever Filipino pole vaulter to compete in the Olympics in 2020. In 2026, Obiena moved to Athens, Greece, where he began training under coach Marcin Szczepanski alongside Emmanouil Karalis. He further shared that he holds a pole vault clinic with the brands he partnered with. A total of 21 young pole vaulters in Ilocos and around 18 in Tagum.  “This is just my small way… Hopefully, this will be an ongoing thing we can sustain… Continuous flow of athletes for our pole vaulting event, because I really want to make Philippines a powerhouse in this event, and hopefully in track and field as well.”
