Don’t touch them with hundred foot pole

A new study saying that taking non-steroidal anti-Inflammatories (NSAIDs) may reduce your risk of getting breast cancer. What the study will not tell you is that people who take NSAIDs have far more serious consequences to worry about. Their gastrointestinal death rate is higher than the death rates of cervical cancer , malignant melanoma, and asthma. 16,000 patients in USA die every year from taking NSAIDs and 100,000 end up in the hospital. So for Pete’s sake why would anybody want to risk taking NSAIDs for prevention when there are safe alternatives like Omega 3and Pine Bark extract
