What Is CRP & Why It Matters

CRP (C-reactive protein) is a marker of inflammation in your body. High levels may silently increase your risk of heart disease.


 

High CRP = Hidden Heart Risk?

Elevated CRP levels are linked to clogged arteries and heart problems. Even without symptoms, your heart could be at risk.


 

Common Causes of High CRP

Infections, obesity, smoking, stress, and chronic conditions can raise CRP levels and impact your overall heart health.


 

When Should You Get Tested?

If you feel fatigue, have a family history of heart disease, or unhealthy habits, a CRP test can help detect early risk.


 

Take Action for Heart Health

Regular testing, a healthy diet, exercise, and stress control can help manage CRP levels and protect your heart.
