Lately I’ve been taking one baby aspirin per day for health reasons. Dr. Oz says take two. Here’s his reasoning.

Dr. Mehmet Oz: Aspirin absolutely benefits the heart and prevents clots from suddenly closing off an artery. Most men and women over the age of 50 should take 2 baby aspirin a day. The reason we give 2 rather than one is that many Americans are resistant to aspirin. And because the side effects are so minor, it makes sense to give double the dose.

I’m rarely impressed by most “health” type websites. Most seem to be pushing one philosophy or product with little if any scientific evidence to backup their claims. “Blue Zones” is an exception and thanks to Dr. Oz. I found the book which started the program and a great website for all sorts of great information and videos. www.bluezones.com

Here’s also a nice introductory video.
