It is becoming common knowledge that INFLAMMATION is a bigger problem than cholesterol....or it SHOULD be....but, I’m not sure there’s enough money in the drugs for inflammation....

I have been reading a lot about inflammation lately, and it seems Lipitor not only brings down cholesterol levels but also slightly reduces inflammation. Bet inflammation and cholesterol levels are somehow tied together.

Actually, statins are a potent anti-inflammatory.
