Inflammation
8 markers in this category
ASTO (Antistreptolysin O)
ASO testing monitors immune responses to streptococcal infections, which can affect the heart and joints. Awareness supports proactive health management as you age.
CRP (C-Reactive Protein)
Chronic low-grade inflammation tends to increase with age. Monitoring CRP supports awareness and management of inflammation-related health risks in later life.
ESR (Erythrocyte Sedimentation Rate)
ESR naturally increases with age. Regular monitoring helps distinguish normal age-related changes from significant inflammation requiring attention.
Homocysteine
Homocysteine levels may rise with age and are associated with cardiovascular and cognitive health. Regular monitoring supports heart and brain protection in later years.
Interleukin-6 (IL-6)
IL-6 levels tend to increase with age and are associated with inflammageing. Monitoring supports management of age-related inflammation and its health effects.
SAA (Serum Amyloid A)
SAA helps detect acute inflammation that can affect organ health with age. Monitoring supports proactive management of inflammatory episodes in later life.
TNF Alpha
TNF-α is a driver of age-related inflammation. Monitoring helps manage the chronic low-grade inflammation that may affect cardiovascular and cognitive health with age.
hs-CRP (High Sensitivity CRP)
hs-CRP measures the chronic inflammation associated with cardiovascular ageing. Regular monitoring is a cornerstone of heart health management in later years.
