"They use of aspirin, acetyl salicylic acid, to thin out the blood. Aspirin interferes with normal platelets aggregation, thus reduces clotting (but it also causes abnormal bleeding). However, according to some the thick blood is due to too much acid, not the aggregation of platelets. None of the trials on aspirin show any benefit in preventing heart attack, such as the two trials reported in the British Medical Journal in 1974 i p 436 and in The Lancet in 1979 ii p 1313. A big study costing $16,000,000 by the National Heart Lung and Blood Institute, reported in JAMA (2/15/80), again showed no heart benefit. Another US trial, called the Physicians’ health Study, used Bufferin. The results, reported in the New England Journal of Medicine (1/28/88), showed no improvement for fatal heart attacks or survival rate. However, non-fatal heart attacks were reduced by 40%, which is most likely due to the neutralization of acids by the magnesium contained in Bufferin. Better results will be achieved if magnesium were used alone. " Yee-Wing Tong, M.D.
