Taking aspirin looks to be the most important thing we can do to reduce cancer after stopping smoking and reducing obesity, and will probably be much easier to implement. While aspirin can cause bleeding in the stomach and bowel. This can be serious, especially in the over 70s, but rarely affects younger people unless they have an underlying condition. My personal advice would be that everyone 50 to 64 should consider taking aspirin. You should talk to your GP first to see if youve got any of the major risk factors for bleeding, but if not I think the benefits substantially outweigh the risks, says senior author, Prof Jack Cuzick.
