Daily Aspirin Pill 'Helps Prevent Cancer' A study says some 130,000 deaths could be prevented by a small, regular dose of the drug - but it also brings other health risks.
Taking a daily dose of aspirin could help ward off some types of cancer, according to a new study.
Researchers say that long-term use of the drug can significantly cut the chance of dying from gastrointestinal illnesses such as bowel cancer and stomach cancer.
It is estimated that 130,357 cancer deaths could be prevented over two decades if everyone in the UK between 50 and 64 took the drug for 10 years.
However, widespread aspirin use would be likely to cause just under 18,000 deaths over the same time period, mainly due to internal bleeding and strokes.
