Would taking buffered aspirin be of any help?
I take all meds with food anyway, unless specifically instructed not to.
I’ve told this story here before, but it’s been a little while, so here goes:
My Grandfather had a “three pill per day” rule: An aspirin, a multi-vitamin, and an Ex-lax. Only three pills were allowed, SO if he was taking something else temporarily, he would drop the vitamin...but mostly he just refused to take any other drugs.
He told that us he was going to live to 100 “if it killed him” and it did..at 99 years and 9 months. The last couple of months, he was in a nursing facility, and he had us smuggling in aspirin and ex-lax because the nurses wouldn’t get it for him.
He had Grandma on the same “3 pill” thing and she live to 94. I think I will start the aspirin thing tomorrow.
yeah it seems that buffered aspirin doesn’t tend to collect on the stomach walls like unbuffered/regular’aspirin can. either way food and water dliute the acidity and with protein and fats bile is released intothe stomach along with stomach acids, so it’s not just sitting there by itself with nothing diluting it or nothing pushing it through to the intestines.
