hs-CRP (High-Sensitivity C-Reactive Protein)

Sensitive marker of systemic inflammation. Distinct from standard CRP used for acute illness.

Why test this

Chronic low-grade inflammation is a shared driver across cardiovascular, metabolic, and neurodegenerative disease. hs-CRP is the most-studied inflammation biomarker.

Optimal Range

< 1.0 mg/L (low risk); < 0.5 mg/L (optimal).

Note: “optimal” ranges from longevity research often differ from standard clinical reference ranges. Always interpret results with a qualified clinician familiar with your full picture.
