A number of studies suggest that aspirin may prevent both the development and spread of colorectal cancer (cancer of the colon and/or rectum) and that it lowers the risk of dying from colorectal cancer. There is also some evidence that aspirin may protect against other types of cancer. (But, you need to take it for a number of years for the effect.) There is also evidence it slows the advance of cognitive decline in patients with Alzheimer's disease.
