Small doses of aspirin 'can significantly reduce' bowel cancer risk
Activer le mode zenDenis Campbell
"A small daily dose of aspirin can significantly cut the risk of getting or dying from bowel cancer, according to research published in the Lancet today.
"The painkiller can reduce by a quarter the chances of being diagnosed with the disease, which is the UK's third most common cancer.
"Regular users are also at a third less risk of dying from it, according to researchers led by Professor Peter Rothwell of Oxford University and Oxford's John Radcliffe hospital. Aspirin could substantially reduce the number of people developing cancer of the colon and rectum, Rothwell confirmed."
