Does C-Reactive Protein actually track with Omega-6 intake?

C-Reactive Protein (CRP) is widely used as a biomarker for inflammation, but understanding its specific biological role is key to interpreting clinical data. Dr. Bill Harris explains how CRP interacts with oxidized byproducts derived from omega-6 fatty acids, specifically noting that looking for differences in circulating CRP without a proper inflammatory trigger might be missing the mechanism entirely. Instead of focusing solely on serum levels, shifting the conversation to red blood cell levels provides a more accurate reflection of tissue-level linoleic acid. Not medical advice.
