Does an Asprin a day really reduce the risk of Heart Disease?

Talk with your doctor. It doesn't reduce the risk of "heart disease" per se. It reduces the chances of your blood clotting and thus can reduce the chance of having a heart attack. But this comes at a cost of a slightly increased risk of bleeding---for instance, bleeding into the gut, into a bruise or even into the head, the latter of which is called a stroke, which can be serious. In some people, an aspirin a day is a good thing. But in some people, the risks outweigh the benefits, and only a doctor who knows the patient should give advice on this matter.
Yep. And not even a "whole" aspirin. All that's needed is a "baby" aspirin. But check with your doc first.
yes it does if you are succesptible to a heart attack
my father has serious heart problems and he takes 1 asprin everyday, asprin is sometimes used as a blood thinner
common sense
i always heard that if you take it during a mild heart attack, it can help you survive.
i see no harm in taking it everyday, but you will also get used to it and build up a tolerance.. which means next time you have a headache, you will just have to deal with it.
Yes, it thins the blood, helping it to flow more easily past plaque and other build up in the blood vessels.
