"Many believed CRP caused heart disease, especially after a widely publicized study released last year suggested that people with low cholesterol but high CRP levels had fewer heart attacks if they took a statin, a cholesterol-lowering drug that also lowers CRP."

Of all the stupid conclusions to draw! There was nothing in that Jupiter study to suggest that CRP caused heart disease. Yes, I'm interested. Another example of brain dead conclusions and ever deader reporting. Exactly what I've been harping about. Thanks.

"Anyway, he said, it does not matter because the real issue is inflammation. CRP goes along with inflammation, and it is inflammation that is likely to be causing heart disease, Dr. Ridker said."

Well, yeah.
