Fact

hsCRP — the inflammation thermometer

High-sensitivity C-reactive protein is the most accessible inflammation biomarker. Ridker's NEJM/JUPITER work showed hsCRP independently predicts CV events even after LDL adjustment. Optimal: <1.0 mg/L. 1.0-3.0 average. >3.0 elevated. Check at every annual blood draw — autoimmune disease + lifestyle factors both move it.
