  • Besides getting rid of many types of pain, including muscle pains, dental pain and menstrual pain, it lowers fever, reduces inflammation and helps prevent stroke, if taken daily.

    It thins your blood and is effective in preventing some heart attacks.

    My BIL always said it was a great birth control pill. He said just take an aspirin before going to bed. Then the punchline would come, that is ALL you take to bed :-) He's been telling that joke since the 60s! LOL!!!

    Although it isnt as widely known, it can also help with brusing. A bruise is normally just blood under the skin, and aspirin helps that blood thin and get back into the circulatory system.

    Yes, not only does it reduce the chance of heart attacks, but during a heart attack, it will save your life. Also, it thins your blood. Aspirin should be taken with caution especially if you are under the age of 18 and with plenty of liquid and or food. It can cause an upset stomach. Please take as the bottle directs.
