   Hi! Yes, you can test more frequently. Once you choose a plan, you can add as many more tests as you like at that same cost per test.

   Thank you!! Based on an initial scan of the publications below it seems like it would but I haven't had a chance to review the robustness of these publications yet so don't want to officially claim this yet :) vegan diet: https:&

   Lifestyle changes including those related to nutrition, exercise, stress, and sleep can all improve inflammation levels. See our blog for a list of lifestyle interventions associated with decreased inflammation levels: https://

    Great comment! We believe there is a future where continuous inflammation testing will be possible. Here's a team already working on building it: https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/pdf/10.1002/admt.2021

    We think so! We have started to see teams working on this and couldn't be more excited: https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/pdf/10.1002/admt.2021013...

    The frequency of measurement is up to you. The more you test, the more detailed your data and insights are. Based on the data from clinical studies, some interventions can change inflammation levels (as measured by hsCRP) within weeks and

    Apologies for the delay. There were a lot of questions so wanted to answer all of them in one shot. >Why do you test for hsCRP and not CRP? What exactly can I learn from my hsCRP values? What can I learn from hsCRP that I can't lear

    Thanks for this info, particularly as we look to expand internationally :) Our price includes lab costs but also the cost of the packaging, shipping, ordering physician, etc. which all starts to add up! We decided to start with at home kits

    :) I love the questions - they help us improve! You are correct that there are sources of inflammation that are not lifestyle related, but many of the drivers of inflammation are indeed lifestyle related. I really like this article on the d

    We believe it will be possible to start doing a more "continuous" monitor for inflammation in the future and are looking forward to that day! If it is possible, we plan to offer it as part of Be Golden

    We are excited to potentially use our platform to research more in this area - for example, do people with higher baseline hsCRP levels have higher likelihood of long COVID?

    This is helpful to know as we look into international expansion. Our current pricing is in the US market. Hopefully, costs decrease over here over time!

    The idea is that by testing multiple times per year, you get more insight into what may be driving your levels and be able to intervene sooner

    This hits perfectly on an FAQ we have: Are there any times I should avoid testing? Experts recommend avoiding testing when you might be experiencing an acute (short term) elevation in hsCRP. Some instances that cause short term elevation i

    I will now apologize in advance if I am not answering the question :) Overall, we recommend healthy lifestyle habits versus drugs to manage inflammation levels.
