hs-CRP is the number that tells you whether inflammation is running in the background.
High-sensitivity C-reactive protein is a non-specific marker of systemic inflammation. Chronically elevated values track with cardiovascular and metabolic risk.
The protocol
| Units | mg/L |
| Standard range | < 3.0 (low cardio risk); 3–10 (moderate); > 10 (acute inflammation, repeat test) |
| Optimal range | < 1.0 |
| <1 | low inflammation |
| 1-3 | average |
| 3-10 | elevated — chronic inflammation |
| ≥10 | acute process — investigate |
| Diet | add omega-3, polyphenols, reduce processed foods |
| Acute | repeat in 2 weeks to confirm chronicity |
| Sleep | prioritise 7–9 h |
| Stress | add daily recovery practice |
Full transcript
hs-CRP is the number that tells you whether inflammation is running in the background. High-sensitivity C-reactive protein is a non-specific marker of systemic inflammation, and chronically elevated values track with cardiovascular and metabolic risk. Under one milligram per litre is low. One to three is average. Three to ten is elevated. Above ten is an acute process. Because it is non-specific, one reading settles nothing — repeat it in two weeks and take both numbers to a clinician. agegen.ai. Generate your prime age! ~~ Mr. Age
