Aspirin therapy

[Desertthorn]

Well, another new study!

First, we find out that the original study on aspirin that concluded that we all had to take a baby aspirin a day was only done on men. Now we find out that this new study on the affects of aspirin on women is completely different than for men. Aspirin doesn't help women who are having a heart attack but it does help women prevent strokes. The new rule, until we do the next study and find out something else, is that a baby aspirin every other day helps prevent strokes for women over 45 and may help women over 65 with heart attacks.

The second study that came out this week, said that laughter was the best threapy for hearts.
