Why add aspirin though? If you want to reduce the chance of cancer, eat less junk and more vegetables, legumes, and fruits.

Compliance is easier with aspirin than with eating well.

Personal development isn't easy, but there is no pill that can replace a healthy lifestyle.

I took the plunge into a strict, healthy diet 3 years ago and it eventually became easy.

Aspirin may be more effective if you eat badly.
