For decades, mainstream medicine and Big Pharma have been pushing low-dose aspirin on just about anyone over the age of 50.
They swear that this “harmless” drug can help protect you against heart attack… stroke… and even high blood pressure.
But there’s one thing they aren’t telling you…
Aspirin KILLS 40,000 Americans every year… and many of them are seniors.
Even worse? If this deadly drug doesn’t kill you, it can set you up for a serious bleed.
Here’s what you need to know.
Doctors push aspirin as a prevention for heart attack and stroke but according to a new study, this practice is DOWNRIGHT DANGEROUS.
A recent review of 13 clinical trials involving over 100,000 patients found that folks who take low-dose aspirin for primary prevent increase their risk of having a deadly hemorrhage by a whopping 40 percent!
Even worse? Other research shows that taking aspirin doesn’t reduce your risk of heart disease.
This means you’re taking on a boatload risk… with ZERO results.
But there is another problem: stopping aspirin raises your risk of heart attack and stroke by 37 percent in the year after stopping.
Aspirin is so dangerous because it thins your blood and can even cause damage to your blood vessels.
And that’s why it’s so important to talk to your doc before you start or stop aspirin therapy.
Fortunately, there are some safe ways to boost your heart without aspirin.
You can start by getting more exercise, including fresh produce in every meal, and taking a fish oil supplement. All three of these methods help lower the type of inflammation that causes heart disease.
