Nature’s “Aspirin” Prevents Heart Attacks and Strokes without the Side Effects?
Americans buy more than 44 million packages of aspirin a year to try and ward off heart attacks and strokes.
But that daily aspirin may be doing more harm than good. Sure, aspirin acts as a blood thinner. But it also strips away the stomach lining, causing ulcers and bleeding. And if ulcers aren’t bad enough, bleeding can occur inside the brain, resulting in death.
If you are one of the millions worried about having a heart attack there’s another alternative. Minus the bleeding, ulcers, and death.
New research from Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center (BIDMC) found a natural alternative. Even the FDA deemed it safe and effective. So safe and effective, that they want it for themselves.
Dr. Robert Flaumenhaft, a professor at Harvard Medical School, led the study. His group of researchers administered this natural supplement orally to rats. And they discovered that this natural cure had anti-thrombotic properties.
Thrombosis is commonly known as a blood clot. Clots block blood flow to the brain and to the heart. This leads to heart attack and/or stroke.
Researchers tested over 5,000 compounds and this particular one proved to be the most potent.
