Yes, technically, but not practically.
Aspirin is an anti-inflammatory. This is counter to your body's immune system response to injuries. It also causes bleeding in your stomach and damages the lining of the stomach and intestinal walls.
Some very heavy duty marketing is in full swing by the companies that produce Aspirin and they are getting a bounce off the fact that Aspirin, as an anti-inflammatory can technically counter act the fact that heart attacks are a result of inflammation. Aspirin also masks the body's pain response and masks your ability to recognize problems due to this.
The heart is a muscle and gets it's energy from fat. If you really want to give your heart the best chance of being healthy, you need to make sure you are not buying into the LOW FAT diet craze.
The best thing you can do for your heart is to make sure your liver, gall bladder, and pancreas are in good shape. Good digestion, including maintaining a low pH of the stomach will give you the condition to kill the bacteria that causes heart disease, the nanobacter bacteria. If the pH of your stomach is too high, this bacteria will not be killed. It first seems to cause diabetes type II and then causes heart disease and then kidney failure.
The correct answer is that although aspirin does retard inflammation, it does a lot of other damage to the body that far out weighs any help it will give to the heart.
good luck
Yes absolutely.
Heart Association recommends aspirin use for patients who've had a myocardial infarction (heart attack), unstable angina, ischemic stroke (caused by blood clot) or transient ischemic attacks (TIAs or "little strokes"), if not contraindicated. This recommendation is based on sound evidence from clinical trials showing that aspirin helps prevent the recurrence of such events as heart attack, hospitalization for recurrent angina, second strokes, etc. (secondary prevention). Studies show aspirin also helps prevent these events from occurring in people at high risk (primary prevention).
You should not start aspirin therapy without first consulting your physician. The risks and benefits of aspirin therapy vary for each person.
