Aspirin is thought to not protect against cancer. In addition to eliminating pain, aspirin is taken to protect it from various diseases. Among other things, a daily aspirin reduced the risk of cancer.
This belief was based on mouse research and the results of some surveys. However, the results of an extensive research that has lasted ten years and considers that aspirin does not affect the origin or development of cancer have now been published.
The study involved 40,000 women. Some should take aspirin, others vitamin E and the rest a placebo. In studies after ten years, it has become clear that neither aspirin nor vitamin E have a protective effect on cancer.
Other studies suggest that high doses of aspirin can help stop cancer. However, they have shown that taking aspirin daily is useless to prevent cancer. According to the researchers, the final conclusion is that the key to good health is not in a pill, but in a balanced diet and a healthy life.
