I recently tested myself and my crp level is too high 16.93 mg/l. I am overweight, I do regular exercise and takes low card diet. I am not able to loose weight. Is higher crp could be the reason.

Hi Shipra, High CRP level indicates some infection in your body which could be sever Cough, cold, fever or other. You need to find the cause of infection from your doctor. This is not related to your weight.

Dear lybrate-user, weight gain could be due to excessive fiber intake. If taking high fibre, then avoid multi grain atta. As it could be reason for gaining weight. As for crp, you need to test again to see if crp has increased or decreased. If increased, then need to investigate what exactly is causing infection. Also get tested for cbc with esr for complete evaluation. Good luck!
