What Causes Elevated ESR Levels And Suggest Diet?

Hi
My mum has just conducted an ESR test. Her results is 39.00.
It is mentioned that normal range should be between 0.00 - 15.00.
Please advise what could be the cause? And if there are any foods that she should stop eating? And what foods should be recommended for her to consume more so as to lower her ESR?
Please advise.
Many thanx.

HI
Thank for asking to HCM
I really appreciate your concern looking to the history given here I would like to say that ESR is just indication of some infection and shows that subject is ill this included in the routine test of blood and some time the ESR carried out alone to confirm the doubt of some infection, one can not go and get done this test without any suspected pathology, hope this helps you, have a nice day.
