Reducing Inflammation with statins, aspirin, flu jab cuts cancer and heart disease - David Agus
Fever - we don't know if a fever is good or bad. But fever is caused by inflammation.
3:50s - 5:00 Statins block synthesis of LDL cholesterol, lowered death from heart disease and stroke
JUPITER trial (I assume Agus is talking about this trial) - statins reduced incidence of cancer by 40% in people who don't have high cholesterol, also delayed heart attack and stroke by 12 years. Statins work by reducing inflammation which reduces deposition of cholesterol and also reduces cancer.
5:40 how can we measure inflammation? Types of inflammation - some is causal, other is not. How to optimise bad inflammation?
6:40s - 7:15s Taking a flu jab not only reduces the chances of a nasty flu for 5 days but also reduces the chance of getting cancer or heart disease in 10 years time by reducing inflammation
Aspirin: 8.20s - aspirin reduces inflammation which reduces heart disease and cancer
