hsCRP FAQ's:

Who is at risk of having a high hsCRP?Individuals who are overweight or obese, people with insulin resistance and diabetics are all at risk of having a higher hsCRP.
What are some ways to lower hsCRP levels?
Making lifestyle changes like losing weight, eating a healthier diet, quitting smoking and performed more aerobic exercise have all been shown to lower hsCRP levels.
What are some factors that can effect my hsCRP readings?
Anytime you're in an acute inflammatory state whether from an illness, injury, infection or other type of inflammation, your hsCRP levels will be high. It's important to always wait until you are healthy to perform this test for the most accurate readings. Those with arthritis or other conditions causing chronic inflammation will always have higher levels of hsCRP so results of this test are not meaningful for people with inflammatory conditions.
