Daily low-dose aspirin can reduce your chance of developing colorectal cancer by a significant 20% but only if you begin taking it before the age of 70. Harvard researchers pooled data from two large groups for a total of 94,540 participants followed for up to 35 years.
When the numbers were crunched and cases of lower bowel cancer tabulated over some 996,463 person-years of followup, the risk of developing such cancer after age 75 was reduced 10 to 28%. The maximum benefits only occurred for those beginning their aspirin regimen before age 70.
If your personal doc agrees, begin your daily low dose aspirin regimen early and use it consistently.
