Yes it has been around before but
fire drills are recurrent too. The advice it contains is still
valid. Oh, and Bayer is
mentioned because the crystal form is from their research. Source
may make it suspect, but it doesn’t in validated the message.
If aspirin were discovered today, it would be $50.00 a tablet or
more.

Chuck,
The mention
of a specific brand, Bayer,
of acetylsalicylic acid (aspirin) and several other things about
this message set off my crap detector.
Sure
enough, a little poking around found the following here .
From the Mayo Clinic's website, no less.
The
comments include a URL to the Mayo Clinic's advice on the subject
and a Clinic employee's statement
"In
general, we do not recommend obtaining advice on medical treatment
from chain mailings,especially when they are of uncertain origin."
It looks
like this thing has been rattling around the internet for more than
two years.

Aspirin Email

We
have been informed of a recently circulated email regarding the use
of aspirin, which included mention of Dr. Virend Somers and of Mayo
Clinic. Neither Dr. Somers nor Mayo Clinic contributed to this
email, which contains some information that is inaccurate and
potentially harmful. We recommend that you speak with your
physician if you have specific questions.

Mayo
Clinic On Aspirin
Dr.
Virend Somers, is a Cardiologist from the Mayo Clinic,
who
is lead author of the report in the July 29, 2008 issue of
the
Journal of the American College of
Cardiology.
Most heart attacks occur in the day,
generally
between 6 A.M. and noon. Having one during the
night, when
the heart should be most at rest, means
that
something unusual happened. Somers and his colleagues
have been
working for a decade to show that sleep apnea is
to blame.
1.
If you take an aspirin or a baby aspirin once a day,
take it at
night.
The reason: Aspirin has a 24-hour "half-life";
therefore,
if most heart attacks happen in the
wee hours of the morning,
the
Aspirin would be strongest in your system.
2.
FYI,
Aspirin lasts a really long time in your medicine
chest
for years, (when it gets old, it smells like
vinegar).
Please read on.
Something that
we can do to help ourselves - nice to know.
Bayer is
making crystal aspirin to dissolve instantly on the tongue.
They
work much faster than the tablets.
Why keep Aspirin by your
bedside? It's about Heart Attacks -
There are other
symptoms of a heart attack, besides the
pain on the left
arm. One must also be aware of an intense
pain on the
chin, as well as nausea and lots of sweating;
however,
these symptoms may also occur less frequently.
Note:
There may be NO pain in the chest during a heart attack.
The
majority of people (about 60%) who had
a heart attack
during their sleep did not wake up.
However, if it occurs, the
chest pain may wake you up from
your deep sleep.
If
that happens, immediately dissolve two aspirins in your mouth
and
swallow them with a bit of water.
Afterwards:
-
Call 911.
- Phone a neighbor or a family member who lives
very close by.
- Say "heart attack!"
-
Say that you have taken 2 Aspirins.
Take a seat on a chair
or sofa
near the front door, and wait for their arrival
and
...DO
NOT LIE DOWN!
A
Cardiologist has stated that if each person after
receiving
this e-mail, sends it to 10 people, probably one
life
could be saved!
I
have already shared this information. What about you?
Do
forward this message. It may save lives!
