TAKE YOUR DAILY DOSE OF ASPIRIN... By 2050 no one under 80 will be dying from cancer, study says New research shows a daily low-dose aspirin is the single most effective action to protect against cancer. Cancer will kill almost no one under the age of 80 by 2050 due to continued advances preventing and treating the disease, a major study suggests. The research by University College London was published as experts said that a daily low-dose aspirin is the single most effective action to protect against cancer. Prof Jack Cuzick, who leads research into disease prevention, urged GPs to do more to ensure patients were given advice to take “baby aspirin” for a decade between the age of 50 and 65. He cited research showing that such action reduces the chance of cancer, heart attacks and strokes by between seven and nine per cent, in 15 years and cut overall death rates by four per cent in two decades.
