Aspirin May Prevent Colon Cancer in Women
A recent study showed that taking aspirin could in fact reduce your risk of getting colon
cancer. Although the study only involved data taking from a sampling of women, it appears
that aspirin may possibly prevent colon cancer, or so they say?
Aspirin is over 100-years
old and appears to cure lots of things, yet many were shocked to learn of this latest
finding, still other completely doubt the study. The study showed that people who
already had polyps maybe able to prevent the onset of colon cancer thru regular use
of aspirin. The researchers went on to extrapolate that it could help those without
polyps from getting one in the first place.
Now several articles in major Medical Journals are showing that if you took aspirin
for a decade 1-2 per week, it would reduce the risk of colorectal cancer by a large
margin over those who did not take aspirin regularly.
Some of the researchers in
near by fields were not surprised while other totally doubted the findings as hogwash.
They are saying that any anti-inflammatory drug may have done the same and would
certainly help to keep removed polyps from returning, thus reduce the risk of cancer.
The study indicated that 14 aspirins per week or 2 every day would reduce the chances
of colon cancer by nearly one-third. Those who took even more are said to reduce
colon cancer by over 50 percentiles.
Of course taking that many aspirins is not
good for you, over use of aspirin can cause bleeding. So although the study appears
to be a wash for many belief systems of cancer researchers, the evidence is notable
and very telling. All this research is helping us fight some of the more serious
forms of cancer killers. Think on this and live strong. "Lance Winslow" - Online
