What are you afraid of?

@FoolishLuna I do fear this as well. My mother had Alzheimer's.

@SweetMae some very smart people who received a Nobel prize in Alzheimer’s research recommended a baby aspirin every day . The said they couldn’t pin down the exact pathway of the effect , but they all take it now .

@TexChik I have heard that as well. I am going to add that to my daily vitamines.

@SweetMae it’s a good idea anyway for anyone over 50

@TexChik I saw a news report only one time on the morning news about research on women who have a problem with carrying a baby past the 3-month mark. A certain hormone level is said to cause the miscarriages. They did research and found that taking a single baby aspirin every day at the same time of day before the woman got pregnant again and all through the pregnancy almost up until birth would block that hormone from causing a miscarriage. It was a very hopeful report and it was the first and last time I ever heard this. Is it because doctors and pharmaceutical companies would lose a lot of money if they ever approve and release this information to the public?

@cherokeepatti most likely
