Guest guest Posted April 3, 2008 Report Share Posted April 3, 2008  Thanks - always good to have back up for what I tell patients!! - J.Keliipio Stopped_Our_Statins ; health_and_healing Friday, April 04, 2008 4:00 AM Dangers Of Aspirin  Dangers Of Aspirin http://www.mnwelldir.org/docs/cardio/cardio26.htmFrom our book Bypassing Bypass, published in 2002 Bad science and profit motive is responsible for the spate of television advertising telling us that aspirin can save you from a heart attack. The studies have more holes than my helicopter I was shot down in during the Vietnam War. First off, we do not get heart attacks because we do not have enough aspirin in our blood stream. We get heart attacks because we lack proper nutrition and proper lifestyles thus causing us to be hypercoagulable not to mention the inflammations in our blood streams adding to this condition. The aspirin studies were done using “buffered†aspirin. When plain aspirin was used, the results were not the same; plain aspirin alone was almost as worthless as shoe polish in preventing heart attacks. One of the main ingredients in buffered aspirin is magnesium. We get heart attacks because we do not have enough magnesium in our blood stream. Magnesium dilates blood vessels, aids potassium absorption, acts as a natural blood thinner, and keeps your blood cells from clumping together causing thrombosis (clotting). Autopsies of people who have died from heart attacks show that their bodies are lacking in magnesium, not aspirin. Daily aspirin use is dangerous. Their own studies proved the dangers of aspirin use. Strokes due to hemorrhaging (hemorrhagic strokes) were up significantly in all studies. Randomized clinical trials testing aspirin in 5011 elderly people, 58% of whom were women, mean age 72 years, followed for a mean of 4.2 years, showed that use of aspirin caused a 4-fold increase in hemorrhagic stroke (P=0.003) and a 1.6- to 1.8-fold increase in ischemic stroke. [R. A. Kronmal et al., Stroke 29, 887-894 (1998)] All the studies showed increases in gastrointestinal disorders and allergic reactions. Using aspirin over a period of time can lead to internal bleeding, stomach ulcers, kidney dysfunction, and death. From the Associated Press in 1999, death by analgesics (over the counter pain killers such as aspirin and NSAIDs (nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs) is the 15th most common cause of death in America. The silent epidemic, the author called it. And then there is Reye’s syndrome and allergic reactions to aspirin: 1,600 children die each year from allergic reactions to aspirin. From the World Chiropractic Alliance (Feb 1999) we get: Patients with blockage of arteries to the brain are three times more likely to have a stroke if they are taking aspirin; dyspepsia and gastrointestinal hemorrhage occur in 31% of those taking 300 mg of aspirin per day; even low doses of aspirin can increase the risk of brain hemorrhage; other side effects can include anemia, bleeding ulcers, confusion and dizziness and numerous other problems. Is there any doubt that aspirin is a drug? It has its place in medicine, but not in long term use.

Guest guest Posted April 4, 2008 Report Share Posted April 4, 2008 I cant argue with all the scientific stuff in this post, but to be putting out the frighteners about the use of aspirin, is a bit of a dodgy thing to do. Whenever people have heart problems or strokes, they are told to take a half aspirin everyday, this has been a common practice for many years. Regarding Reyes syndrome, well yes it is true that a percentage of children can get this from the use of aspirin, which is why any pharmacist/Dr will tell you not to give aspirin to children and young people. My stomach can't tolerate paracetamol or ibruprofen, and I take four 300mg tablets a day, as I have bad knees, from my days of body building and high impact aerobics. I have found this to be fine for me, and if I forget to take the aspirin before I get up, my knees ache until I have taken them and they have kicked in. I rather think that these scare tactics seem to be raising their heads on a dangerously high level these days, it seems that everything has some sort of dangerous component, and if we were to pay heed to all of them, we would be in a sorry state. Like all medications, my opinion is to talk it over with your GP or your Pharmacist, regarding the pros and cons, and weigh them up before deciding what you feel is right for you.

Guest guest Posted April 4, 2008 Report Share Posted April 4, 2008 At least aspirin is based in a real herb (willow bark) even if it is synthesized---i would a million times take aspirin before i would take the other liver killing garbage there is out there, (Tylenol ibuprofin etc...) All things in moderation of course...

Guest guest Posted April 4, 2008 Report Share Posted April 4, 2008 Perhaps the article is doing you a favour - Aspirin is so bad for you there are many things that would help arthritic knees of an alternative and non harmful nature - things that do not include allopathic pain killers. After all this is an Alternative Forum - you can't really expect us to condone the use of allopathic medicines - that is not what the list is for. Are you still able to hear with that amount of Aspirin being absorbed every day? In Australia very few people still take Aspirin for pain - yes allopaths prescribe it for hear/brain protection - enteric coated - 70mg a day is all that is needed for that purpose - and it is essential to take over 100mg of Co-EnzymeQ10 daily to counteract the ill effects at the same time - but then it is also acknowledged that Aspirin is not what is really needed for hear/brain protection anyway.

Guest guest Posted April 5, 2008 Report Share Posted April 5, 2008 Just because people have "been doing it for years" does not necessarily mean it is healthy. They have been putting mercury in our teeth(Amalgam) for years also and also in vaccines....that does not make them "safe." We had been drinking tap water for years also...I would not touch the stuff now. Things change and "new" discoveries are made daily. To be honest, through my researching for my son's Autism the last 15 years...I will not touch prescription drugs or OTC drugs because I have learned how they are tearing our bodies apart from the inside out. Needless to say I have not been to any doctor, except chiropractic in years. I have seen too many people go in for their yearly check ups only to find out that they "suddenly" need to be on some prescription med. and it is all down hill from there..i think y'all know what I am talking about...

Guest guest Posted April 5, 2008 Report Share Posted April 5, 2008 Very true Lindy, with aspirin, it might not be as harmful as other OTC, but that doesn't mean it is NOT harmful. It contains salicylsalicylicum (latin name), and it does microscopic damage to mucosal lining. Some reports say the mini bleeding it causes. How about the load on the liver.. it might mask the pain for whatever someone takes it, it still has to be detoxified and eliminated from the body. OTC doesn't mean the same as safe .. it just enhances access = sales = $$$$ At 01:11 PM 5/04/2008, you wrote: Just because people have " been doing it for years " does not necessarily mean it is healthy.

Guest guest Posted February 9, 2010 Report Share Posted February 9, 2010 bobbi, There are so many millions of doses of aspirin taken daily that the number of folks injured or dying is miniscule compared to the amount consumed. That being said, thousands die each year from aspirin so it isn't safe in any case. Unless there aren't any safer alternatives, I would avoid it. Bob - bobbi henderson oleander soup Tuesday, February 09, 2010 1:16 PM Re: Dangers of aspirin I find this one a little hard to believe....I know lots of people who take aspirin and have all their lives and are now in their 60s and 70s and take no perscription drugs!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Very healthy! Should they be concerned??? I was just wondering if you just passing the article around or if you know something about the research. I too am someone who takes aspirin istead of motrin, aleve or etc. Thanks for posting the article...very good one but disconcerting.....A lot of the doctors still think that aspirin is one of the safest things we can take for pain. bobbi henderson - robert-blau ; SymphonicHealth ; oleander soup ; avmassey ; gyllenha Monday, February 08, 2010 2:57 PM Dangers of aspirin Aspirin is Dangerous and Should Not Be Used http://www.naturalnews.com/028068_aspirin_health_hazards.html Checked by AVG - www.avg.com Version: 8.5.435 / Virus Database: 271.1.1/2677 - Release 02/09/10 07:35:00 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted February 13, 2010 Report Share Posted February 13, 2010 My father used to take aspirin by the handfuls. He wouldn't drink anything with these aspirin he would chew them up and swallow them. For a toothache he would bite down on the aspirin and hold it in his mouth. He lived to be 85 years old!! I don't think that aspirin will hurt you if you're not on any blood thinners already. Barbara Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
