Yep. It comes from willow bark, the active ingredient is salicin. My grandfather's people have used it for centuries for pain relief, sore muscles and for fever. As a kid staying with my grandparents on the rez I've drank willow bark tea to treat fever. Synthetic/commercial aspirin is acetylsalicylic acid.
Aspirin does cause bleeding. In my case it was nose-bleeds but it lasted for about a month with a nose-bleed on average every other day. Aspirin stopped and bleeding stopped. I am now on a reduced dose.
Yes it can cause bleeding. This is true. But as the presenter points out, it is a risk/benefit balance. The bleeding is not life threatening, and as you say, it can be modulated via dose.
in med school (back in the day) they taught that aspirin caused a very slight amount of GI bleed, they termed as an 'occult bleed'. It's why most aspirin is sold as a coated aspirin, to help avoid such a thing.
I was taking a daily baby aspirin and started having tinnitus. It was weird, like a low rumble no one else could hear. When I stopped taking the aspirin, the tinnitus went away.
Aspirin also reduces risk of catching covid by 30% according to one study i saw in @ 2021 right before they started the fear mongering about you'll bleed out if you take a baby aspirin a day
Aspirin is a descendant from natural therapies. It was developed from plant derived medicine, in which the Salicylic acid is made into a powder using vinegar.
Aspirin is getting harder to find, as people buy into the fake news that it causes fatal bleeds. In NZ, chemists don't stock it (literally can only get it online), and there is only a tiny shelf in the supermarket amongst a giant display of alternatives. I see in the comments for this video that there are others experiencing the same syndrome.
RE: the fake news - In this presentation, the 3-year literature review found that there were nearly as many bleeds occurring in those who were taking placebos. (8/1000 for aspirin, while 5/1000 for placebos, in a randomized controlled trial of n=50,000 on each side). But before one jumps to an erroneous conclusion: there were nearly double the fatalities from bleeding, in those who took placebos. So aspirin seems to have prevented death in those (already ill people) who sprang a leak in their stomachs - and it seems to be that the bleeds occurred due to other reasons than the taking of aspirin TBH.
Also, there was a 40% resistance, or negligence, to taking aspirin, noted in one of the papers reviewed. Is this because patients had bought into the fake news? Considering its safety, why would (ill) people refuse to take aspirin if the doctor had ordered it, otherwise?
The researcher has been at this subject for over twenty years. Please watch this video, and proceed to buy plenty of aspirin, (Or get some willow bark and make a tea, using a drop of cider vinegar, if you are feeling energetic)
especially for people suffering. It prolongs life expectancy for cancer patients by 5 years for men, and 4.5 years for women, and that is yuge.
I believe it is one tablet a day to keep down chronic inflammation. The dose depends on how sensitive one is. Some people do well on the 100mg 'low-dose', developed for people prone to strokes and heart issues, but some are just fine taking one of the 300mg tablets that are normally taken for headaches etc.
on the package it says one can take up to three 300mg tablets at once, but I think that is for more acute pain. Mind you, some cancer patients suffer pain, so there's that.
I took 300mg per day for three years by mistake! It should have been 75mg. The only adverse effect that might have resulted is tinnitus, which continues to this day.
Aspirin comes from tree bark...natural

My relative, a European used it too.
My son went and collected Willow Bark when we were all down with Swine flu. At the time, there was no way we could get to the supermarket.
Digoxin comes from the digitalis plant - natural, used for heart problems and usually fatal in too high a dosage. :-)

Taking it with baking soda helps, I believe the Aspro clear (large tablets, that foam when they are dropped in water) was developed with that in mind.

update: I went to supermarket and they took it off the shelves.
Where it is on the shelves, it's nearly impossible to find in doses greater than "heart-healthy low-dose" 70 (80?) mg.
online pharmacies, but they often have a limit of one box per customer.
I put this up as a PSA. The video is a year old.

Powerful information! Thanks fren!
What dosage is recommended for prevention of metastasis?

Thank you for that info.
For over 20 years I've taken one low-dose coated 'baby aspirin' tablet twice each day with no problem.
This was on the advice of my physician at the time and I never stopped (he retired).
While I'm not qualified to claim the positive benefits, I can absolutely report no negative impacts of any kind.
