was ist ein normaler crp wert — what are common causes?

A normal CRP (C-reactive protein) level is typically below 5 mg/L, with many labs considering <3 mg/L optimal. Values between 3–10 mg/L suggest low-grade inflammation, often from infections, smoking, obesity, or chronic conditions like arthritis. Levels above 10 mg/L indicate acute inflammation or infection. Important: CRP is a non-specific marker; identifying the cause requires medical follow-up. For persistently elevated CRP without obvious cause, lifestyle factors (diet, exercise, stress) should be evaluated. Single measurements have limited value – trend monitoring is better. MyBody-X offers CRP testing as part of inflammation and longevity panels, but always as a screening tool, not a diagnosis.
