What are inflammation markers?
Markers such as hsCRP and ferritin help assess your body's inflammatory status. Raised levels may indicate underlying inflammation linked to infections, autoimmune conditions or cardiovascular disease.
What does it mean if inflammation is detected?
Chronic inflammation is a risk factor for several long-term conditions, including heart disease, diabetes and certain cancers. Identifying raised levels early gives you the chance to take proactive steps to manage your health.
High sensitivity C-reactive protein (hsCRP) A precise blood test that detects even low levels of chronic inflammation, often before symptoms appear.
Ferritin The main storage form of iron in the body. Low levels may suggest iron deficiency, while high levels can signal inflammation.
Grip strength Measured with a handheld device, grip strength is strongly linked with overall health, independence in later life and longevity. Weaker grip strength has been associated with inflammation, frailty, reduced muscle mass and increased risk of falls.

What is an Autoimmune & Immune Response Test? An ANA (antinuclear antibody) test is a widely used clinical tool that helps assess whether the immune system may be reacting against the body's own cells.
Rheumatoid factor is used to help diagnose Rheumatoid Arthritis. It is eventually present in significant concentrations in about 80% of patients with RA but also present in other conditions and in a small percentage of healthy people.
