What is C-reactive protein (CRP)?

Silent inflammation is an important factor in the development of sarcopenia. To measure the degree of inflammation, physicians can determine the level of C-reactive protein (CRP) in the blood. CRP is one of the acute phase proteins that increase during the systemic inflammation that often accompanies insulin resistance.

Most of the research on CRP has focused on its role in predicting heart attack. The higher the CRP level, the higher the risk of developing heart attack. The same is true for sarcopenia: the higher the CRP level, the greater the acceleration in the loss of muscle mass.

Elevated CRP levels are also associated with a significantly higher risk for the development of insulin resistance and type 2 diabetes.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest.
