The “Miracle Drug” Too Good to Be True?

Aspirin has been called "the miracle drug" because of all its benefits, and new ones seem to surface almost weekly.  It is touted to be so fantastic that people are told to take one every day, almost as if it was some super vitamin or health food.  Can this synthetic drug really be this great to warrant daily use by everybody?

Forty million pounds (200 tablets for every man, woman, and child in the U.S.) are consumed yearly in the U.S.  Twenty million people are prescribed daily aspirin.  Launched in 1899, its use has been expanding continuously every since.  Its benefits include thinning the blood and relieving pain and inflammation.  It is primarily given today for heart health, but when the data is scrutinized, the number of people that really benefit from this drug’s daily use shrinks dramatically.

The evidence shows aspirin may reduce the risk of a second non-fatal heart attack, but NOT fatal ones.  In other words, death rates are not changed by taking aspirin.  People with high blood pressure don’t get any benefit at all.  One large study concluded aspirin could reduce non fatal heart attacks by 1%, but would INCREASE the risk of strokes.

Known side effects of aspirin use are:
1.    GASTRO-INTESTINAL BLEEDING
2.    INCREASED STROKE RISK
3.    MACULAR DEGENERATION (use of 10 years or longer)
4.    RINGING IN THE EARS
5.    ASTHMA ATTACKS
6.    KIDNEY PROBLEMS
7.    LIVER PROBLEMS (especially if combined with alcohol)
8.    DEAFNESS
9.    INCREASED JOINT DEGENERATION
10.  INCREASED RISK OF PANCREATIC CANCER

Does it seem logical that this is something that promotes health and longevity?  I invite you to step back from the hypnotic programming and take a closer look with open eyes and an awareness of basic health and healing principles.

For pain and inflammation, natural alternatives include proteolytic enzymes (Bromelain is a good one), ginger, yucca, fish or krill oil (which also helps to thin the blood).

Caution: No prescription should be stopped without consulting with your doctor first.
