“Sauna frequency was associated with lower C-reactive protein in Finnish men, while daily broccoli sprouts lowered IL-6 and C-reactive protein in a small controlled study of adults with overweight. She also discusses time-restricted eating and cold exposure.”

“A similar study found that human-like Neu5Gc-deficient mice fed 0.25 grams of Neu5Gc per gram of food and challenged with Neu5Gc-targeted antibodies developed systemic inflammation as evidenced by increased circulating IL-6, a pro-inflammatory molecule.”

“The high-calorie diet didn't lead to weight gain or changes in body composition, reductions in insulin sensitivity, or even changes to inflammatory biomarkers like CRP and IL-6. However, over the course of just 5 days, liver fat increased by 63%.”

“In a trial of middle-aged, low-fitness adults, urolithin A supplementation led to a 10–12% increase in lower-body muscle strength, a 10–15% increase in VO2 peak, and better performance on a 6-minute walk test, even when participants didn't engage in structured exercise training over the 4-month study.”

“Participants with greater visceral fat had 53 percent higher CRP, 30 percent higher TNF-alpha), 26 percent amyloid A, 17 percent higher white blood cell counts, and 42 percent higher IL-6, compared to participants with normal fat distribution.”

“Inflammation: Alcohol causes inflammation by recruiting immune cells called monocytes and macrophages to the tumor microenvironment and increasing pro-inflammatory markers like TNF-alpha and the interleukins IL-1, IL-6, and IL-8.”

“Researchers also measured changes in brain electrical activity, linking mental training with an observable immune response in this small trial. Dr. Davidson also discusses newer app-based research examining IL-6, a marker of inflammation, and microbial pathways related to butyrate.”

“Increased concentrations of proinflammatory cytokines, such as interleukin(IL)-6 and C-reactive protein (CRP), and oxidized low-density lipoprotein (LDL) cholesterol contribute to endothelial dysfunction and the generation of atherosclerotic plaques.”

“PQQ has a much smaller human evidence base. Exploratory research in 10 people found changes in CRP, IL-6, and urinary metabolites after short-term supplementation, while standard glucose and lipid measures were unchanged.”

“Short-term elevation of IL-6 is generally considered favorable, but chronic elevation is indicative of chronic inflammation. Interestingly, IL-6 also demonstrates anti-inflammatory properties because it switches on the activity of interleukin-10 (IL-10), a potent anti-inflammatory cytokine.”
