WHAT IT MEASURES
CRP rises when your immune system is active. The high-sensitivity test picks up the low, chronic levels that matter for long-term health.
WHY IT MATTERS
Steady low-grade inflammation is linked to heart disease and faster ageing. A cold can spike it, so we look at trends.
WHEN TO RETEST
Every six months, and never within two weeks of being ill.
WHAT MOVES IT
Five levers, ranked.
Based on clinical evidence. Your clinician picks the ones that fit you.
Mediterranean diet
Olive oil, fish, vegetables and legumes.
Regular movement
Daily activity lowers CRP.
Better sleep
Short sleep raises inflammation.
Healthy weight
Fat tissue makes inflammatory signals.
Floss daily
Gum inflammation shows up in blood.
