I believe Aspirin is a miracle drug – if taken appropriately and as directed by a healthcare professional. It is a potent anti-inflammatory agent, mild anticoagulant, and modest pain reliever. More impressively, Aspirin may play a role in the treatment of cancer, especially colorectal cancers (prevention & treatment). There are many studies underway to ascertain it’s role in cancer care. And it doesn’t take much to achieve a therapeutic effect – just one 81 milligram tablet. The key is duration, not dosage.
Please read the articles below and become informed and aware of Aspirin’s powerful actions. Just remember one important detail. Always, always, always take Aspirin with a full glass of water (8 – 10 ounces) to minimize irritation to the esophagus and stomach, and to facilitate rapid dissolution and absorption.
