THURSDAY, March 13 (HealthDay News) -- Taking a small dose of aspirin every other day seems to reduce the risk of developing asthma among older women.

EmpowHer Asks: Who should take aspirin for heart health?
Dr. Paul Underwood: Well, certainly Aspirin is very useful in thinning the blood and if a person has a blockage in blood vessels, you want your blood to be thin so it doesn’t actually form a clot and stop the blood flow completely. And so one of the first things that we would do for anyone who is having a heart attack as we give them Aspirin and then we’ll give them other blood thinners as well, but typically the first one they receive is Aspirin.
