The global cholesterol testing products and services market size is expected to reach USD 31.98 billion by 2030, registering a CAGR of 8.4% from 2025 to 2030, according to a new report by Grand View Research, Inc. Insufficient physical activity leads to high cholesterol levels and other conditions, such as obesity, diabetes, and cardiovascular diseases. This factor is anticipated to drive the demand for cholesterol testing products and services in near future.
There is an increased need to control high blood cholesterol levels, in addition to other risk factors such as smoking, high blood pressure, and obesity. This has led to high adoption of diagnostic tools and services. According to the Journal of the American Medical Association (JAMA), while the cholesterol levels in the U.S. youth have improved from 1999 to 2016, only 50% of adolescents and children have the ideal cholesterol range and 25% of them are in the clinically high range.
According to the Journal of the American College of Cardiology, in 2018, 31 million of the U.S. adults had high total cholesterol and around one-third of them had high levels of Low-Density Lipoprotein (LDL). Growing number of people being overweight in U.S. is another factor driving the demand for cholesterol testing products and services. Increasing geriatric population is one of the significant factors driving the market growth. This group of population is prone to various cardiovascular diseases such as stroke and heart attack. Thus, increasing cholesterol level is a substantial risk factor for the aging population, which is expected to drive the product demand.
