IL-6 Correlation
The correlation score (1-10) represents how strongly elevated IL-6 levels are linked to a specific condition based on scientific research. Here's how the scores can be interpreted:
​
-
1-3 (Low Correlation): The connection is weaker or indirect, often contributing to overall inflammation but not as a primary driver of the condition.
-
4-6 (Moderate Correlation): IL-6 plays a significant role but may act alongside other factors. Lifestyle changes and interventions targeting IL-6 can still provide benefits.
-
7-10 (High Correlation): IL-6 is a central player in the condition’s development and progression. Managing IL-6 levels through lifestyle modifications, diet, and supplements can have a direct and meaningful impact.
For example, conditions with a score of 9 or 10, such as arthritis, lupus, or COVID-19, are highly influenced by IL-6 levels. This means that by targeting IL-6, individuals can potentially reduce symptoms, improve outcomes, and regain control over their health.
