Aspirin's anti-cancer benefits

[thebrick]

I have always been a fan of lo-dose aspirin for the cardiovascular benefits it provides.

Now look at this study I found that it also has benefits regarding cancer in general. Since I have dealt with cancer this year, I find this to be huge.

Low-dose aspirin

“Studies have shown that aspirin administration for five or more years reduces the incidence of all cancers by 38 percent

38 percent is huge! Thanks Brick.

38 % is big, I too had a run in with Cancer. Carcinoid tumor in my appendix. Hopefully thats the end of the "C" word for me. I take 325 mg. asprin everyday per the Dr. for another issue. thanks for the post Brick.

Sorry to hear that Ranger. I know exactly how you feel and the stress and worry it brings. Glad you are doing well now. Keep the faith that you have kicked that to the curb for good.
