Inflammation is at the root of many health problems
From arthritis to Alzheimer’s, chronic inflammation is at the root of many health problems. And, it often progresses. Knowing whether you’re dealing with this common condition can empower you to seek appropriate treatment—before it gets worse. You can find out whether you are at risk by testing for inflammation markers such as CRP (C-Reactive Protein). Lab tests for cytokines such as interleukins and tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-α) also will offer clues about whether you should be concerned about inflammation. So don’t wait—detect damaging inflammation before it causes life threatening diseases like heart attacks or cancer.
What do inflammation tests look for?
- C-reactive protein (CRP) associated with heart disease, Alzheimer’s and diabetes
- Interleukin (a kind of cytokine) associated with anxiety, arthritis, and hepatitis
- Tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-α), a cytokine linked to cancers
- Most inflammation blood test panels do not require fasting
