aspirin is high in toxicity and can block other metabolism... such as can block COX metabolism...aspirin in a small dose is good in lowering cholesterol level in our blood bcoz COX can be inhibit... COX is bad bcoz can cause platelet aggregation in our blood cell...
y we need to take omega 3 n omega 6 in a balanced way??
bcoz, omega 3 will help to reduced the inflammation that caused by prostaglandins (inflammation-causing eicosanoids)....
omega 6 will convert into arachidonic acids... then it can be used to make prostaglandins...
low intake of omega 3 will WORSEN the inflammatory disease

y men have higher possibility to get heart attack???
bcoz men have lower amount of HDL (high density lipoprotein) compared to women...
HDL is used to transport cholesterols to our liver and it also can block the oxidation of LDL!

Normal cells may bear the seeds of their own destruction in the form of cancer
genes. The activities of these genes may represent the final common pathway by which many carcinogens act. Cancer genes may not be unwanted guests but essential constituents of the cell’s genetic apparatus, betraying the cell only when their structure or control is distributed by carcinogens.

oxidized LDL can be removed by scavenger cells (white cells)... over time, cholesterol builds up in the scavenger cells n faster when LDL in blood is excessive!!!
when the scavenger cells work for years n heavily, plaque will develop!!!
when this plaque mix with connective tissue (collagen) it will harden the arteries!!!
this will caused ATHEROSCLEROSIS!!

y LDL (lower density lipoprotein) is BAD??
if at normal level, LDL will be broken down into protein n free cholesterol...
BUT when the free cholesterol concentration increased, our cell can't take anymore LDL...
so concentration of LDL in our blood will increased n will be oxidized by free radical!! this is dangerous...
