Should You Take A Daily Aspirin? - HealthScore Longevity Report #3

In this week's report, I focus on the question of whether or not to take aspirin to prevent heart attacks and stroke. I place the study in the context of what's already known about the topic. I provide recommendations and practical tips based on the study's findings. And I tell you what I personally do.
