Dr Ford Brewer - PrevMed

Inflammation, Heart Attacks, & Alzheimer's (TIME Magazine 2004) - FORD BREWER MD MPH

Episode Summary

The TIME Magazine knew this fact already in 2004—inflammation is a secret killer that causes heart attacks, strokes, and dementia. Why do so many doctors not know this yet? Why are many doctors still focused on cholesterol? I will also cover the test for the Lp-PLA2 enzyme (also called PLAC2). This test is part of the inflammation panel, along with HsCRP, MPO, and MACR tests.
