Research from the University of Oxford points out that Aspirin's benefits are no longer limited only to aids in heart disease, but also to cancer prevention. Although taking the drug takes many years to really have an effect on the body, it is advisable to start early, as it takes 10 years to prevent cases such as bowel cancer.
There is no concrete evidence to validate the claim yet, but there is hope for the treatments, mainly because new studies are being done to prove the short-term benefits (between 3 and 5 years). Another good news is that the drug not only helps prevent various types of the disease, aspirins work by fighting metastasis (when cancer spreads to other regions of the body).
The suggested daily consumption of the medication is 75 to 300 mg, remembering that all medication should be taken with the knowledge of a specialist and should not be taken at higher dosages than recommended, as there is a risk of overdose, and in the case of aspirin, this It causes stomach bleeding and several other serious problems.
