Regular Low-Dose Aspirin Doesn't Protect Brain from Aging
Contradictory to previous hopeful findings, regular intake of low-dose aspirin does not protect older, healthy women against cognitive decline.

Such were the conclusion of a major 10-year study on women which revealed that aspirin cannot prevent age-related shortfalls in memory and thinking.

According to study author Jae Hee Kang, an instructor of medicine at Brigham and Women's Hospital in Boston:

"I certainly don't think that people should look at taking low-dose aspirin as a preventive measure for cognitive decline. I think that's pretty clear, especially among those women who are healthy."


Results of the said study have been published online last Thursday at the British Medical Journal.

Find more details from the full report.
