In the largest piece of “Spin†and “Cover Your Ass†since a former

American president declared “I did not have sex with that womanâ€, the 69th

annual

convention of the American College of Chest Physicians in Orlando (Oct '03)

heard of a study that found that there is such a thing as aspirin withdrawal

and that this withdrawal can itself cause blood clots and heart attacks!

Anyone, they declared who has been on the aspirin a day routine for over 3

months

can suffer the withdrawal dangers, and usually within the first week of non

aspirin use!

A aspirin a day has been touted for the last 2 decades or so as the way of

avoiding heart attacks and blood clots that cause strokes. Yet the toxicity

issue of aspirin has been put on the back burner due to “Cost to benefit

Ratiosâ€

meaning that more folks benefit from the aspirin than die from it. Looks

good on paper unless you're one of the victims of aspirin! In case folks out

there need reminding, aspirin and the entire class of Cox1 and Cox 2

medications (the Non Steroidal anti Inflammatory Drugs) kill 20,000 Americans a

year

and hospitalize another 100,000 with kidney, liver and intestinal woes. (Wall

Street Journal article on Celebrex, 19 April 1999).

Why do patients stop taking their aspirin a day? Well reasons like surgery,

in case their blood gets too thin and the patient “bleeds outâ€

(hemorrhages)

which can kill. Likewise dental work while under aspirin can have the same

effect of hemorrhage. More seriously patients are taken off of the aspirin

because the aspirin is causing kidney damage leading to kidney failure and

death, or liver toxicity again leading to liver failure and death, or is

causing

great big gaping holes in their intestines through which the patients

hemorrhage, and also leads to death. It does not make sense to avoid death by

heart

attack and stroke by inducing death by kidney failure or intestinal

hemorrhage.! Talk about killing Peter to save Paul!

Well the study presented at the conference by representatives of the Pasture

Institute of France declared that once on aspirin patients should never go

off of the drug. When going off of a medication comes back to bite you it's a

rebound reaction or withdrawal reaction but no one at the conference spoke to

that issue. So no matter what; surgery, hemorrhage, liver toxicity, kidney

damage, liver failure - these brilliant docs, have decided the risk of having

a heart attack outweighs all else!

In another piece of bad news for aspirin users, a study of 90,000 nurses

over the course of 18 years found a connection between aspirin use and

pancreatic cancer. This type of cancer is nearly always 100% fatal! The Times

of

London quoted the study: “Those who took two aspiring a day over a period of

at

least four years showed an 86% increased riskâ€. (1). A Reuters report on the

same study said that the researchers found that aspirin use could have caused

pancreatitis (inflammation of the pancreas) in those nurses who came down with

the pancreatic cancer.(2). It's been known for years that aspirin is toxic

to the liver; well the pancreas sits on the liver just to it's right. It

stands to reason that if aspirin can harm and inflame the liver then it can

harm

and inflame the pancreas. Now here is where I get to conjecture a bit: if the

prologued aspirin use can cause pancreatitis and pancreatic cancer, since

that gland is also involved in making insulin and since all diabetic patients

have pancreatitis to varying degrees, can part of the meteoric rise in Diabetes

in the last 20 years be from daily aspirin use? Definitely a link there and

definitely something to think about and research into!!!

Is there an alternative to the madness? You bet – systemic enzymes. Enzymes

taken by mouth have an almost 50 year history of use in hospitals and

physicians offices across Europe and Japan . Systemic enzymes have over 200

peer

reviewed studies proving their absorption and therapeutic action.

Systemic enzymes:

1. Are the bodies natural inflammation fighters.

2. Eat Fibrosis, such as that caused by surgery, trauma or disease.

3. Clean the blood.

4. Modulate Immune Function.

5. Fight Viruses.

 

 

What has this got to do with replacing aspirin? Well, the enzymes safely:

1. Decrease platelet aggregation, as aspirin does but gentler with out

ever getting the blood too thin.

2. Clean fibrin and necrotic debris which also float around the blood

stream thickening it. Fibrin is the scar tissue that forms the skeleton work

around which atherosclerotic plaque builds. Removing excesses of it is a good

thing. Aspirin cannot do this valuable work.

 

Systemic enzymes bring you the anti-stroke and anti-heart attack actions of

an aspirin a day, plus added benefits, with no rebound, no toxicity and

absolute safety. You don't have to kill Peter to save Paul!
