Around 29 million people in the US take a daily dose of aspirin as a preventative measure for cardiovascular disease. And while an age-related increased risk of bleeding has seen it fall out of favor with medical authorities, it's now shaping up as something that might be even more beneficial in triggering the immune system to help take down certain cancers.
There's been a growing body of research showing that regular, long-term low-dose aspirin use was associated with better outcomes of colorectal cancer (CRC). But scientists haven't been entirely sure just why the common over-the-counter medicine was having a distinctive and seemingly targeted effect on the growth and spread of CRC, and gathering long-term data on this area of aspirin use has been challenging.
That earlier Harvard-led study found that a regular aspirin regimen could prevent almost 11% of colorectal cancers and 8% of gastrointestinal cancers diagnosed in the US every year. Now, Italian researchers have looked at clinical and pathological records of all CRC patients operated on at Chirurgia Generale Unit in Padova, Italy, from 2015 to 2019. Of these 238 patients, 31 (13%) were considered aspirin users – those who took 100 mg of the nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug per day.
These 238 patients – known as the METACCRE cohort – underwent histology analysis, with scientists looking at tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes (TIL), immunochemistry and mutation data. A subset of patients slotted into the IMMUNOREACT1 cohort, that specifically focused on immunohistochemistry and flow cytometry.
In simpler terms, what the scientists found was that regular aspirin use appeared to limit nodal metastasis (cancer spread) and produced a higher number of tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes – the T and B cells that can recognize cancer cells and kill them.

Ping!..................
Willow Tree Bark.
Who would have thunk it?
anything that thins the blood and increases circulation should help your body fight off disease.
Well, Bristol-Myers-Squibb found years ago that the key ingredient in their anti-cancer drug Taxol is the bark of the Pacific Yew Tree. Baro can be pretty amazing stuff.
Yew don’t say!.....................
So THAT’s why they strongly discouraged its ubiquitous use since the 1980’s

Ivermictin is very strongly anti-cancer. If you’re interested, ping me, I have a lot of info on this and other anti-cancer protocols. Kicked stage 3 agressive and metastasized cancer in 2019.
Actually, I have been taking aspirin therapy for years but occasionally stop for a while. Especially stop before oral surgery.

I remember when something about this aspirin benefit/colon cancer came out .... BRIEFLY, years ago ... and, then, like that, was gone forever down the rabbit hole.
They’re trying to do the same thing, now/again, with IVM and Vitamin D benefits.
Evil.
Aspirin’s a miracle drug - if it had been discovered 10 years ago rather than in 125 years ago, they’d be charging $40 a tablet...
I look forward to it, little jeremiah.
Keep up the good work.
I posted it there. I’ve had a lot of health issues over the years, and practiced using herbs and natural methods for decades, so figured a thread would be a good thing, for people to share what they’ve learned and done for health. And now with covid and the big exposure of the malignity of the medical/pharmaceutical industrial complex, there is more and more interest in being one’s own doctor.
