, high calprotectin indicates inflammation, which can be in the small OR the large intestine (colon).

Hi! is correct - high calprotectin indicates inflammation, which unfortunately can be anywhere in your digestive tract. Have you spoken to your doctor about these results? Let us know how we can support you. Warmly, Amanda (Team Member)
