High-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hs-CRP) Blood Test

What it measures

Inflammation markers

Clinical significance

High-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hs-CRP) is a blood marker of low-grade systemic inflammation. It is commonly used to assess cardiovascular risk, even in individuals without a history of heart disease. Elevated hs-CRP levels have been associated with an increased risk of myocardial infarction, stroke, peripheral arterial disease, and sudden cardiac death.

πŸ” What levels are considered optimal?

  • Levels below 1.0 mg/L are associated with low cardiovascular risk.
  • Levels between 1.0 and 3.0 mg/L are associated with average risk.
  • Levels above 3.0 mg/L are associated with high cardiovascular risk.

πŸ”· hs-CRP and overall health:

hs-CRP reflects chronic, low-grade inflammation in the body, which plays a key role in the development of atherosclerosis and other age-related diseases. Even moderately elevated levels may indicate increased inflammatory activity that is not always clinically apparent.

↓ What does a low hs-CRP level mean?

Lower hs-CRP levels are generally considered favorable and are associated with lower cardiovascular risk and lower levels of systemic inflammation.

↑ What does a high hs-CRP level mean?

Elevated hs-CRP levels may indicate ongoing inflammation and are associated with an increased risk of cardiovascular events, including heart attack and stroke. In individuals who have already experienced a cardiovascular event, higher hs-CRP levels may be linked to a greater risk of recurrence.

Regular monitoring of hs-CRP may help assess inflammatory status and identify individuals at increased cardiovascular risk, even in the absence of symptoms.

My journey back to health with Healsens. Thank you!!

That's when I turned to a nutritionist and ordered a blood test through Healsens. … Four months later, I retested. My biological age dropped to 24β€”nearly a decade younger than my real age.

Useful app to track analytics and 2nd opinion

It helps me track main parameters, understanding what do they mean and correlations, and make critical analysis to make preventative changes. Hope too see new fichas soon!

Everything is great! Excellent app! It's very convenient for storing all your test results! The only thing I wish was that you could record blood pressure readings for both arms, as this is sometimes important for blood pressure monitoring.

A useful app. It motivates me to lead a healthy lifestyle and monitor my diet. After the test results, I decided to change my diet – I cut out flour and chocolate. I lost 2 kg in about a week. We'll see how the test results look over time.
