CUT YOUR RISK OF BREAST CANCER

A new study has found that aspirin taken everyday by women can cut the risk of the most common type of breast cancer by 16%. This type of cancer accounts for nearly 3/4 of all breast cancers.

Studies have been done before to try to link aspirin with a decrease in breast cancers but the problem with those studies is that they grouped all types of breast cancers together. This is the first study in which the cancer have been separated.

The aspirin has to be taken every day as the study found that taking it less often did nothing. Before you run to your medicine cabinet to take an aspirin consult your doctor. Aspirin is not without it's own side affects and some people are a lot more sensitive to it than others.
