Why it's on the midlife checklist
The high-sensitivity inflammation marker — a general signal, not a diagnosis, that some clinicians fold into cardiovascular risk pictures. Its trackable nature is the point: before-and-after around lifestyle changes is where it's most informative.
Keeping the record
Log each result with dates and note major context (recent illness inflates it). The trend across quiet periods is the readable signal.
