Aspirin’s Blinding Secret
An-aspirin-a-day doesn’t
prevent stroke and heart attack—studies show it may actually
increase the risk! I hope they announce
an about-face soon. But doctors hate to admit they’re
wrong, so I’m not holding my breath. You shouldn’t
either. Read this and take action now...
 MILLIONS
OF AMERICANS are being urged to take an-aspirin-a-day to prevent
a stroke and heart attack. But a major research study in Canada
found this actually increased the risk of stroke and heart
attack in 40% of the people who took it! Three other studies
from Germany, Britain, and here in the U.S. support the finding.
When I read this news, I wasn’t
surprised. In December, 1986, I first warned ALTERNATIVES
readers against taking an-aspirin-a-day. Those who took my advice
are, without question, better off. There’s nothing wrong
with an occasional aspirin or two for a headache or minor pain.
But taken regularly, aspirin (even if it’s “enteric-coated”)
can and will cause gastrointestinal bleeding—a serious problem
that doctors have no way of correcting.
 But
that’s not the worst of it. New research shows that such
long-term aspirin use can make you blind by increasing your risk
of macular degeneration, and even increasing your risk of cataracts
by up to 44 percent!(5) Those are bad odds.
Macular degeneration is already the leading cause of blindness
in people over 55 in our country, and doctors still have no effective
treatments. If this current aspirin-a-day craze continues, we
could be looking at a wave of blindness in the years to come.
Doctors are pushing aspirin because
it thins the blood, keeping it flowing smoothly so dangerous clots
don’t form. It’s a good idea, but there are safer
and better ways to accomplish this, which I’ve written about
in past issues of ALTERNATIVES. In case you’re in
the dark about them, I’ve prepared a Special Report entitled
Safe Alternatives To An Aspirin-A-Day to bring you up
to date. In it, you’ll read about...
My favorite natural blood-thinner.
It’s a natural enzyme (found in a common fruit) that works
like aspirin. It’s also one of the best natural anti-inflammatory
agents around, meaning it eases the pain and reduces the swelling
if you get a bruise or muscle pull. It also helps with arthritis.
My Report tells you all about it.
Protect your stomach. If
you insist on taking aspirin or NSAIDs regularly, you’ve
got to protect your stomach. My Report shows you a neat way that
can prevent the gastrointestinal bleeding these drugs cause. Simply
take this common spice (revealed in my Report) with the aspirin.
It repels damage like Teflon.
If you’re already experiencing stomach problems,
my Report describes an effective, do-it-yourself treatment for
peptic and duodenal ulcers. No M.D. needed. Research shows it
performs better than the leading drug. It works by coating your
stomach with protective mucus. See my Report. 
Stop stomach bleeding. Western doctors
have no real treatments for stomach bleeding, but Chinese doctors
do. They use a powder made from the rhubarb plant to stop stomach
bleeding in 95 percent of all cases. This treatment is practically
unknown in U.S. medical circles, but my Report tells how you can
get your hands on a supply so you can use it properly.
Protect your eyesight. Macular degeneration
is becoming a serious problem—even among people who don’t
take aspirin. Protect your eyes by taking the two minerals and
two supplements that I described in my Report. They are used widely
in Europe with impressive results. Researchers found that they
can actually halt the progression of vision loss.
Restoring lost vision.
If you, or anyone you know, suffers from vision loss caused by
macular degeneration or retinitis pigmentosa, send for my Report
without delay. It describes the only treatment I’ve ever
seen that actually triggers the regeneration and regrowth of the
eye’s retina to reverse these terrible conditions. It
can actually restore vision! |
