The following article could be found on La Times. It is called "Aspirin cuts colon cancer rate in high-risk patients" and is published by Eryn Brown on October 27 2011. It says that patients with a genetic condition that increases their risk of colon or other cancers took Aspirin, and that made them colon cancerless. Lynch Syndrome, causes an increased chance of developing colon or other types of cancers. Research was done, and the one's that took the placebo, had higher chances of getting colon cancer, about 34 cases. Their research studies were based on experiments on the people, and that will help them do more investigations which will lead to a more detailed overview of Lynch Syndrome connected with Aspirin intake.
I feel this is a good way to further the research done on cancers. Aspirin, is a daily intake of most people, and those with a higher chance of getting cancer should take a more vast amount, if otherwise noted not to.
