Monosccharides are not in lipids. They are in carbohydrates.

New research suggests that nonfasting triglyceride levels more strongly predict CHD risk than fasting levels.
It is generally recommended to avoid taking medications during fasting for lab testing, including Zantac. However, you should consult with your healthcare provider or the laboratory conducting the test for specific instructions on whether you can take Zantac while fasting for a lipids test.
TO FAST OR NOT TO FAST?It is not necessarily an advantage or disadvantage to fasting before labs. It depends on what test the doctor is asking for and what results are needed with the blood drawn.If the doctor asks you to fast; he or she may be trying to determine your blood sugar levels while fasting or to see what your triglyceride and cholesterol levels are at the fasting time frame.Fasting can and should make a difference that is why we ask; however, if a patient is diabetic, overweight, or in poor general health the labs may be affected no matter what they do.K StansburyCentral Valley Medical
It helps provide a better 'view' of your body functioning and conditions, for example fasting lipids' fasting blood glucose, thus it is more useful for diagnostic purposes.
Fasting blood glucose (lab drawn)65-99mg/dL = normal blood glucose100-125mg/dL = pre diabetes126mg/dL andover = diabetes (recommend repeating test on another day to confirm diagnosis of diabetes)Non fasting blood glucose(lab drawn)Please note: fasting blood glucose is recommended to diagnose diabetesunder 140mg/dL = normal blood glucose140-199 mg/dL = pre diabetes200mg/dL and over = diabetes
Various sources indicate that overnight fasting needs to be from 8 to 12 hours. It is obviously important to reach the minimum, but also to not exceed 16 hours as this can yield unreliable results.
Fasting labs are not affected by blood pressure medications and they should be taken as prescribed. Simply take them with some water of plain black coffee on your regular schedule.
One common test for identifying lipids is the Sudan III test. This test involves adding Sudan III dye to a sample, and if lipids are present, the dye will bind to the lipids and turn the sample red. This test is simple and used in labs to detect the presence of lipids in various substances.
You dont' need to fast for the GFR, but usually it's drawn with other labs that require fasting, so contact your health care provider or lab for advice.
