I agree with you wholeheartedly! The statin guys theories are full of holes, things just don't add up. Statins just are not solving the problems of CVD. But at least people out there, are coming around to the inflammation side. Once they realize the effects of EPA regarding inflammation. I hope a light bulb in the Statin guys head one day lights up! Realize and admit maybe they where wrong.

Dr. Libby wrote that article in 2002......I'd cut him some slack. I immediately became suspect of it's publication date when he wrote "I wish there were a blood test for inflammation" - it's in an overview box on the lower left of the first page of the article.
