A blood test can detect high levels of C-reactive protein _ a sign of inflammation. 13. Although many chemicals increase during inflammation, C-reactive protein , or CRP, is particularly easy to measure. 14. They also reduce levels of C-reactive protein , or CRP. 15. Curcumin appears to reduce circulating C-reactive protein in human subjects, although no dose-response relationship was established. 16. A test for C-reactive protein was 0 . 6, putting him in the lowest risk category. 17. It raises HDL cholesterol, but also raises levels of c-reactive protein , which is associated with inflammation. 18.
