They want to keep the blood thin so the platelets do not coagulate and get thick which can affect the heart or the brain let’s look here briefly if you look at the heart here and it’s just a picture showing a heart what happens in a heart attack is that when the blood tries to get to the heart through the coronary arteries you get less blood supply because there’s
Clogging in there and the blood can’t get through so they call it a heart attack now if you look at here a stroke the same thing blood is trying to get to the brain goes up through the artery or arteries and if one of those arteries become blocked then the blood doesn’t get there then it’s called a stroke and obviously if the blood doesn’t get to the to the lung or
Wherever it is it’s going to die or potentially have serious problems so we need oxygen everywhere so the next step i wanted to share with people when is the best time to take aspirin now most people take aspirin in the morning here in the western civilization although an interesting study that was reading in the leading university medical center in the netherlands
Particularly on the other side of the world they’re saying the best time to take aspirin by the way a baby aspirin is 81 milligrams for regular aspirin it’s 325 milligrams that’s tell you that they used was 100 milligrams and what they did very simple is that they had many people they tap the people took aspirin the morning half took it at night let’s go over here
And just show you briefly we’ll be talking about platelets these are blood platelets i’m going to continue on with my study here but what they found that the people who took it at night they noticed that the blood platelets were thinner in the morning i realized that let me come back here platelets coagulate the most in the morning period and they realized that when
