Dear Reader,
Low-dose aspirin use is common among older adults, with about 25% of U.S. adults ages 50 to 80 taking it at least three times a week. This is largely due to earlier research suggesting it supports heart health and reduces the risk of certain cancers.
Updated national guidelines now advise a more cautious approach. Always consult your healthcare provider before starting or stopping aspirin, and weigh the risks and benefits carefully. |
