Why Does C-Reactive Protein Predict Mortality Better Than BMI or Exercise?
Emma Sullivan and David Park break down why C-reactive protein, a simple blood marker of systemic inflammation, is a better predictor of mortality and cardiovascular disease than BMI or exercise alone—and why you can look healthy on the outside while carrying dangerous internal inflammation. They explore the modifiable drivers of chronic inflammation, from sleep and ultra-processed foods to stress and gum disease, and explain exactly what the research shows actually works to lower your CRP. You'll leave with a concrete understanding of your inflammatory status, why it matters, and specific, evidence-based actions you can take starting today.Follow The Wellness Rhythm Show: ▶️ YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@TheWellnessRhythmShow 📖 Newsletter: https://thewellnessrhythmshow.substack.com Powered by VoxCrea.AI
