| | You might also want to have your c reactive protein checked, as
| | well as your homocysteine level. They are very good indicators
| | of heart health. The test are cheap and require a simple blood
| | test.
| |
| | FYI:
| |
| | C-reactive protein (CRP) is a protein made in the liver. Increased
| levels
| in
| | the blood are a non-specific signal of inflammation in the body. A CRP
| test
| | measures the amount of C-reactive protein in the blood, but can
indicate
| | only the potential presence of inflammation. Additional tests may be
| | required to determine the location or cause of the inflammation, if
| | appropriate.
| |
| | Homocysteine is an amino acid produced by the human body and found in
| the
| | blood. High levels of homocysteine may damage blood vessels, cause
blood
| | vessel blockages to occur, and cause blood to clot more easily. This
can
| | lead to vascular problems including heart disease and stroke. You can
| reduce
| | the homocysteine levels in your body by eating foods containing
folate,
| also
| | called folic acid. These include fruits and leafy green vegetables. If
| your
| | level of homocysteine is high enough your doctor may recommend folic
| acid
| | and B vitamin supplements.
