I'm 76 and was misdiagnosed so many times! Was told I had a brain tumor, second opinion MRI showed I didn't. Was told I didn't have Guillain-Barre, that I had blood blots. Turns out I have Guillain-Barre that was the cause of my pulmonary embolisms. Was told I had allergies causing my headaches. Turns out after 2 years of headaches, I had cervicogenic headaches instead. Was told I had lupis anticoagulant, after years of eliquis, was tested again and tested that didn't have lupis (once you get it, it's for life). Was told I needed emergency triple heart bypass. I declined. That was 4 years ago. Was told I had a 95% blocked carotid artery and needed surgery ASAP. I've been drinking a concoction of ingredients that's been clearing my arteries. Now I can look at the ceiling without getting dizzy. That was several years ago also and I'm not even dead yet!. My list goes on. I have to say, I don't trust doctors either! If they knew what they were doing, they wouldn't call it "practice".
I am a 78 year old .. still practicing Head and Neck surgeon who has been taking enteric coated baby aspirin every other day for 52 years .. I have read the literature .. past and recent and I am absolutely Not changing my regimen .. am likely the oldest still competent surgeon in my specialty on the planet !( I do not drink , smoke , or take any drug .. exercise at least 4x per week or more ., which is also likely a positive factor
Your Doc took out the wrong kidney !! Thank God ! That you have two !! Just read my original comment .. after having taken my enteric coated aspirin … and I would like to retract at least one thing ! There are certainly many fellow surgeons .. still practicing in my specialties .. who Are much more competent than I could ever be .. Dr Terry “F” ..the most amazing , competent , compassionate Surgeon / Mentor that I have ever encountered … she was way way ahead of her time … and , to top it off .. she remains the most beautiful Surgeon with whom I have ever been associated !! Tough , focused yet kind as well !
Yes, you're right. A study was done in the UK that showed that taking it low-dose. Baby aspirins enhances the immune system and can encapsulate cancers. Which would stop them from spreading.
Um….thats not what the topic is and you are completely missing the point. So keep taking that baby aspirin so you don’t get colon cancer and die of something else instead. There. Now you can be happy while you split hairs 🙄
The bleeding aspect has always been know, but in mist countries people have always known that aspirin should not be taken on an empty stomach. I am 90 and an am still being told this. So much depends on the individual lifestyle. Doctors never seem to mention. The American and English average diets are very unhealthy! I still take 75mg. And have a good functioning heart.
OMG!!!! My mom is currently in the hospital because of SEVERE anemia! I believe it was brought on because the doctors put her on baby aspirin after her pacemaker was placed. She's not doing well. Please pray 🙏. So glad you are putting this out. I am in tears.
I’m taking baby aspirin n was told to take it cause of strokes n heart attacks runs in our family n I started having issues with my heart n was also put on heart meds last year n I’m 66
Talk to your Dr is a legal requirement. The Chanel drs can not give medical advice. Thus ……. talk to your dr. Dr Berry knows we won’t talk to our dr. (If we have one)
Me cardiologist out me on a baby aspirin, because I have a rare heart aneurism and I refused a prescription pills because it would cause swollen ankles and lower my blood pressure and I dint have hight blood pressure. When I take the aspirin I don’t have palpitations and feel fine.
I have been taking a 100mg Aspirin tablet each day for many years. I recently stopped taking it after hearing about the new guidelines. Within two weeks, the veins on my upper right leg started to expand and became painful and this scared me. I then re-started taking the aspirin again. Within a week or so the veins went back to normal. I have continued to take my Aspirin daily.
henry, that is interesting, I wonder if the aspirin caused this issue and now without the aspirin the swelling is the swelling appear, it could be a discontinuation syndrome symptom
I just wish the so-called "experts" would make up their minds, instead of changing their guidance every couple of years. Eating eggs, drinking coffee, now taking baby aspirins - who knows what's next. It wouldn't surprise me if someday, they decide that smoking is actually good for you.
Ya 2 Coffee studies recently, 1 said 2 to 3 a day did good things and the other said it causes hearing loss. My ears do suck but born with a bad one plus age and some meds I needed long ago also associated with hearing loss. I just wonder if coffee is making it worse faster. But not giving it up.
Dr. Berry, you are God sent . Thank you for helping me gain my health back. Carnivore for most the time, with occasional ketovore. Here’s an example, A1c was 15.6 April 22,2023. As of August 10, 2023. A1c is now 5.8. I know I have more to go🙏thank you, thank you. Your knowledge and compassion for the health of people, is truly amazing and appreciated.
I'm 77, and I have been taking a full aspirin for 15 years with no side effects. My Dad died at 65 from a stroke and heart attack. I made it through Covid-19 with no jab, and I led a very active life with no such thing as a quiet, uneventful day.
I'm 63 brother and I agree. Everyone is different and that is how I deal with things. I haven't been to a doctor in years. PLUS, after these covid years and their lies I'll never go to one unless I think I'm dying anyway then it really doesn't matter.
I’m younger than you. But I quit taking all prescriptions several years back. I did catch a late variant of covid. It came and went with out issue. But. Since 2016. I’ve only had the one cold. No I didn’t get the poison jab either. I refuse to get those anymore. It made me sick every single time.
My 75 year old mum was sitting in a puddle of blood from taking those things! Her doctor said stop them immediately. She lived until age 88 and died from kidney failure due to diabeties, no stroks and no heart attacks. She never needed them after all.
Please do the video for those with heart issues about baby aspirin. I had a full stemi heart attack with 3 stents 3 years ago. The baby aspirin is the only meds I take. I no longer take Plavix or any other heart meds. Refused statins from the beginning. With diet & exercise, doing great.
HOLD ON THERE! I took a full size aspirin for 33 years until last year when I read about the new guidelines. I felt great while I took the aspirin. No joint pain, I would jog 2 miles a day, and I felt great. However, I would bleed a lot when I cut myself or would get really big bruises. Even the phlebotomist would know I took aspirin each time I had a blood test because my blood was very watery. So, what did I do when I read the new research and guidelines? I stopped taking the aspirin. About 10 days later I was jogging my 2 miles at night when I noticed I was really out of breath. I stopped, took my pulse, and it was 248 beats a minute. I instantly knew what my mistake had been. I had stopped taking the daily full aspirin cold turkey. So, I went home and chewed an aspirin down. I felt much better within ten minutes. So, PLEASE, just don't stop talking the baby aspirin. Wean yourself off of it very slowly. It's been about a year now and I'm down to one full aspirin a week. (I stopped jogging too.) As far as the joint pain and pain from all my past injuries, it was bad. My mobility decrease substantially and I would groan in pain everything I would sit or stand, just like the old man I had become. The good news is that late last year I took up bee keeping. I get stung at least 4 times a week. Many times much more. To my neverending surprise, the bee stings have done away with my joint pain and lack of mobility. I now actually appreciate every time I get stung by a bee. The bee will die after it stings me, but I will be free of pain. Life is a huge mystery full of surprises guys.
I'm 42. After Covid last year, I asked my cardiologist if it was a good idea to take aspirin, and he said NO. Anyone who does not have a HA or CVD should never ever take aspirin. I went to him because I was suffering from cardiophobia and had a couple of panic attacks. He ran all tests and all was good. Suffered for months from anxiety UNTIL I cought the Carnivore / Keto train and everything dissapeared completely. Then I thought to myself, still 42, this will be my train for life so when I turn 60 - 70 - 80 or whatever I wouldn't regret anything.
@@jimrutherford2773 That's because he's 45 and from our generation. His only prescription was to exercise. On the dietary subject he was smart enough to tell me I DO NOT interfere with diets.
@@jimrutherford2773 The pharmaceutical companies run the medical industry. There have been high-level management pharma executives on most medical college boards since the 30s and they have greatly influenced how doctors are taught to deal with disease. Curing disease or even preventing disease is not the financial goal. Instead, treating the symptom but never curing the disease makes for big profits in this world that's all that matters. Dr.Berry is one of the very few you can trust especially after covid with so many Doctors and Nurses being forced out of medicine for refusing the jab. If you can find a Doctor that had to relocate or start a private practice for refusing the jab, They are the Doctors you should be looking for.
Thanks, Doc. I learned a lot. I will ask my primary physician about this during my annual phys this month. He's a sharp guy, but NO one is expected to know everything. I'm 70, and the field of medicine has changed dramatically over the last 4 to 5 decades ♡ Thx
Problem is -- should the new studies be believed? Doctors are trained at pharma owned schools, trained to prescribe pharma drugs and read journals financed by pharma.... CURES ARE MONEY LOSERS for pharmaceutical producers! Few can know if any drugs are effective or are just addictive and/or life long money generators for pharma.
Thanks Dr. Berry. Im 54, 2 years since stage 1 breast cancer, all gone now, but taking Tamoxifin and a baby aspirin too, she says "just in case, it won't hurt". Think I'll look for that study and ask her if she still thinks I need it. She also says to limit red meat. 🙄 Ha! Almost 4 years keto, and 8 months ketovire, 100lbs down. Huzzah! Would love a Tamoxifin video one day. I have a feeling I don't need that either 😢. Thanks!
When we were all told to stop baby aspirin if we were over 60, I did.....and in a couple of days, I was crippled by arthritis in my ankles. This had suddenly hit me at 30, but seems to have been kept under control especially with the (baby) aspirin. I considered a full aspirin, and a visit to the doctor, but decided just to go back on the baby aspirin. 99% of the problem solved. I informed my doctor, but am not willing to give it up. Life isn't worth living if I can't walk. Now 76, over six months on keto, still on baby aspirin, and grateful that I live in a city where you don't need a car. I walk EVERYWHERE.
Aspirin has a broad spectrum of therapeutic effects. I use it on my worst days and it always makes me feel better immediately. This anti-aspirin agenda is being orchestrated by pharmaceutical companies to get people to move over to their patented alternatives. Aspirin is not a pharmaceutical drug, it's salycilic acid from the bark of willow trees. It's the patented formulations that make these companies money.
@dianedalton2387 No, mk4 and they have mk7 vitamin d works well with both doctors don't want you knowing about certain vitamins because they work its the same thing with Mechanics and RUclips people are starting to learn how fix their own cars and saving themselves a lot money
He mentioned this and said his recommendation is for primary prevention, the stint situation would make the BA secondary, he also Sid, “don’t listen to me”. About the BA
I'm soon to be 69 years old and have been religiously taken the baby aspirin since the early 90s. I'll watch the video, but honerstly, I'm so leary of discontinuing it.
I had a quadruple bypass and I won't put anything in my body. I was doing keto and now I'm doing carnivore. I never had a heart attack but I'll tell you ever since I started doing these diets I just wish I never would have got my heart surgery I would of fixed it naturally with food.. my doctor told me to eating very lean meats and lots of vegetables and keep my cholesterol below 50. That pretty much summed up that I shouldn't listen to him anymore. I think I would be way healthier if I would have never listened to these doctors to begin with.
Good for you , my Dad had the same procedure and was healing fine till all the medications they gave him killed him ,specifically Amiodarone ! I strongly encourage everyone to never take that crap ! It caused my Dads lungs to scar and he could no longer breath . If murder was legal that cardiologist would be toast ! I truly miss my Dad and he should still be here . He had a second family later in life and it was heart breaking to see my sisters see their Dad die .
@@alaindelon5398 I had it the end of 2015. I was just eating what they recommended pretty much just a lot more of it plus I had fast food very often. Even after the surgery they put me on a bad diet that it seemed like I never improved. Telling me lots of whole grain and vegetables with a little bit of meat. I lost so much muscle doing that and never got that back. Doing carnivore I never felt so good and full of energy.
My dad had CLL but I believe it was Lyme related. He had to take iron and vitamin c. He still lived to 95.. I wish he could have lived forever or until I couldn’t be here any longer.
Andrew T. Chan, MD, MPH, a gastroenterologist, Director of Epidemiology at Massachusetts General Cancer Center, and Professor of Medicine at Harvard Medical School. “The data are quite compelling supporting the use of aspirin,” Dr. Chan said in an interview with The ASCO Post. “Looking back, the recommendation statement of 2016 was a milestone for cancer prevention-recognition of the compelling data supporting the use of aspirin to reduce colorectal cancer risk.
My dad was on a blood thinner and also taking a full size aspirin daily. He started bleeding internally through his intestines. They became so perforated that even surgery was not an option. Despite all the efforts. The countless blood transfusions and the clotting drugs. He passed away. Too much of anything is no good. He had a heart condition but that not what took his life. Medicine can be a double edged sword at times. Long term uses of multiple blood thinners took him. If you are on long term blood thinners. Check your stool. If it’s black. Speak up to your doctor. Easier to correct when caught early.
I am 76 and have BRADICARDIA. A CARDIOLOGIST prescribed Ecotrin and Vusor 20mg. There is NOTHING WRONG WITH MY HEART the cardiologist said. PERHAPS the antidepressant and anxiety meds Im taking. I have calcification of 300 and cardiologist said he will treat this VERY AGGRESSIVELY. That is too clear my arteries. The result is that I am SO TIRED AND LETHARGIC. I just wsnt to lay down. Maybe due to baby aspirin. At age 76, I feel my body cant stand this harsh treatment. When I take my BLOOD PRESSURE meds, I am so weak and dizzy that I must hold onto something not to fall over. Is my cardiologist meaning good, but actually killing me!
Thanks Doc. Ken. I just lost my mother, she took 1/2 of a baby aspirin a day . she fell and hit her head and had internal bleeding on the brain because of this. You are right we should not take the aspirin
I'm sorry. My mother died the same way. She took a huge amount of aspirin for arthritis pain, but the doctor said her injury was invariably fatal. She was expected to take several days to die, but died just twenty one hrs. after the injury. I suppose the aspirin could have contributed, but state mandated autopsy for brain injury death showed she had far more severe damage from the fall than they had thought. You're in grief now, and I understand the temptation to perseverate about such a thing, but grant yourself that you did the best you could with what you knew.
I'm so sorry for your loss. 🙏 I want to thank you for posting your story. I have problems with balance and have fallen and hit my head. I will no longer be taking asprin. Thank you and Dr. Berry.
I'm 70 years old and have been taking asprin 32 years ,every since I had a heartattack at age 38 .I also have 5 stints and have had no problems taking asprin.
Yes, seemingly accurate and important finding (requiring more research). STILL: in the first few minutes of this video Dr Berry correctly states that all pharmaceuticals have myriad actions (mechanisms, side effects). Especially with longterm use. True also of so-called “supplements” (not regulated as drugs are in the USA).
My family has a very high risk of blood clots causing early deaths. I will continue to take the baby aspirin. Dr. Berry, I truly respect you and know you are a doctor that cares for his patients, but have these new guidelines been established by studies done in the US? If so, that immediately makes me suspect that its not for our good. Sorry for being skeptical, but after the entire vax push and seeing how it has negatively affected thousands, I don't base any medical decisions on studies done in the US.
You are very smart! Got to be careful who you listen to and what new studies come out. If it’s the fda or cdc I’m thinking do the opposite of what they say. They honestly don’t care.
Now I know why I just received a letter from my health insurance company informing me that that the ACA Drug List will no longer cover aspirin as a preventative medicine. Thank you Dr Berry, I’m happy to have found you channel!
Y'all don't find it strange that just as studies are coming out saying aspirin can possibly prevent/help cure cancer, that all the sudden Drs are claiming it's dangerous n insurance providers won't cover it? 😯🤔 Highly sus
Since I broke away from the Guidelines, my cholesterol has been better. My HDL was always below 40. Since I broke away it has gone up into the low 50s with my LDL in the high 50s.
Alot of butter isn't good for you. Small amounts of butter is ok and the carnivore diet is Bull$hit too! The best lifestyle eating is mediterranean hands done!
The Mediterranean diet is a healthy-eating plan. It's focused on plants and includes the traditional flavors and cooking methods of the region. It's less of a diet, meaning not a restricted way to eat, and more of a lifestyle that blends the basics of healthy eating with the traditional flavors and cooking methods of the people in the Mediterranean region. Why the Mediterranean diet? It is known to have an effect on long-term diseases. These include heart and blood vessel problems known as cardiovascular disease. Observations from a study in the 1960s found that cardiovascular disease was linked to fewer deaths in some Mediterranean countries, such as Greece and Italy, than in the U.S. and northern Europe. More-recent studies linked the Mediterranean diet with lower risk factors for heart disease, such as high cholesterol and high blood pressure. Today, the Mediterranean diet is one of the healthy eating plans that American nutrition experts recommend. It's also recognized by the World Health Organization as a healthy-eating pattern. Many cultures have eating patterns similar to the Mediterranean diet, including Japan, for example. And other diets have some of the same recommendations as the Mediterranean diet. Two examples are the Dietary Approaches to Stop Hypertension (DASH) diet, and the Dietary Guidelines for Americans. Research suggests that it's key to follow the Mediterranean diet over the long term for your heart to benefit. What is the Mediterranean diet? The Mediterranean diet is a way of eating based on the traditional cuisine of countries bordering the Mediterranean Sea. There's no single definition for the diet. But most often, it's high in: Vegetables. Fruits. Whole grains. Beans. Nuts and seeds. Olive oil. Seasoning with herbs and spices. The main steps to follow the diet include: Each day, eat vegetables, fruits, whole grains and plant-based fats. Each week, have fish, poultry, beans, legumes and eggs. Enjoy moderate portions of dairy products. Limit how much red meat you eat. Limit how many foods with added sugar you eat. Some other elements of the Mediterranean diet are to: Share meals with family and friends. Get regular exercise. Enjoy wine in moderation if you drink alcohol. Plant based, not meat based The foundation of the Mediterranean diet is plant foods. That means meals are built around vegetables, fruits, herbs, nuts, beans and whole grains. Moderate amounts of dairy, poultry and eggs are part of the Mediterranean diet, as is seafood. In contrast, red meat is eaten only once in a while. Healthy fats Unsaturated fats are a strength of the Mediterranean diet. They're eaten instead of saturated and trans fats, which play roles in heart disease. Olive oil and nuts are the main sources of fat in the Mediterranean diet. They provide unsaturated fat. When unsaturated fat comes from plant sources, it seems to lower levels of total cholesterol as well as low-density lipoprotein, also called LDL or "bad" cholesterol. Replacing saturated fat with polyunsaturated fat lowers risk of cardiovascular disease events and death related to cardiovascular disease, according to the Dietary Guidelines for Americans. Seafood, seeds, nuts, legumes and some vegetable oils have healthy fats, including the polyunsaturated kind. Fish also are a key part of the Mediterranean diet. Some healthy choices are: Mackerel. Herring. Sardines. Albacore tuna. Salmon. Anchovies. These are known as fatty fish. And the fats they contain are omega-3 fatty acids. Omega-3s are unsaturated fats that may lower immune system action in the body known as inflammation. They also may help reduce blood fats called triglycerides, and they affect blood clotting. Omega 3s may lower the risk of stroke and heart failure too. Lean fish and shellfish also are included in the Mediterranean diet. Shellfish include shrimp, crab, clams and scallops. Some types of lean fish are cod, haddock, hake and whitefish. Choose fish that are low in mercury, such as the ones listed above. This is important for children ages 1 to 11 and people who are pregnant and breastfeeding. Too much mercury can harm the brain and nervous system over time. If your family catches and eats fish, check local fish advisories to find out about any cases of mercury contamination. What about wine? Like people all over the world, some who live in the Mediterranean region drink alcohol and some do not. Many versions of the Mediterranean diet include some wine with a meal. Red wine tends to be included more often than is white wine. Some experts and dietary guidelines recommend that women limit themselves to one glass of wine a day, and for men no more than two glasses a day. Alcohol has been linked with a lower risk of heart disease in some studies. But it's not risk-free. So don't start to drink alcohol or drink more often in hopes of gaining possible health benefits. Recent studies cast doubt on the notion that even a little alcohol may be good for the heart. One large study suggested that people who regularly drank any amount of alcohol had a higher risk of high blood pressure and coronary artery disease. The more alcohol they drank, the higher the risk. Another study found that having slightly more than one alcoholic drink a day was linked with a higher risk of atrial fibrillation, a type of irregular heartbeat. If you drink alcohol, talk to your health care provider or a specialist in nutrition, called a dietitian, to figure out what amount - if any - is right for you. Factors that affect your decision might be the extra calories alcohol brings to the diet, or any kidney or liver problems you may have. And if you just don't like the taste of alcohol, that's a good reason to stay away from it too. Eating the Mediterranean way Want to try the Mediterranean diet? These tips will help you get started: Eat more fruits and vegetables. Each day, aim for 2 to 3 servings of fruit and four or more servings of vegetables. One serving of fruit equals a medium piece of whole fruit or one cup of chopped. One serving of vegetables equals two cups of leafy produce, one cup of raw veggies, or half a cup of cooked vegetables. Choose whole grains. Switch to whole-grain bread, cereal and pasta. You also can try other whole grains, such as bulgur, barley and farro. If you eat about 2,000 calories a day, aim to have at least 3 ounces of whole grains. You can get 1 ounce from a slice of bread, a cup of ready-made cereal, or half a cup of cooked rice or pasta. Read the Nutrition Facts label to find out how much of a product is in one serving. Use unsaturated fats from plants. Replacing saturated fats with unsaturated fats may help lower the risk of heart disease. For example, you could replace butter with olive, canola, or safflower or sunflower oil in cooking or at the table. And instead of putting butter or margarine on bread, you could use nut or seed spreads on toast or on an apple. Eat more seafood. Eat fish or shellfish 2 to 3 times a week. Children and people who are pregnant or breastfeeding may want to limit certain types of fish due to mercury levels. One serving of fish is around 3 to 5 ounces for adults. That's about the size of a deck of cards. The U.S. Food and Drug Administration recommends smaller servings for children twice a week. Fresh or water-packed tuna, salmon, trout, mackerel and herring are healthy choices. Stay away from deep-fried fish. Get nuts. Each week, aim to eat four servings of raw, unsalted nuts. One serving is a quarter of a cup. Enjoy some dairy. Some good choices are skim or 1% milk, low-fat cottage cheese, and low-fat Greek or plain yogurt. Limit how much cheese you eat. One serving is about the size of four dice. And cut back on higher fat dairy. That includes whole and 2% milk, butter, margarine, and ice cream. Reduce red and processed meat. Eat more fish, poultry or beans instead. If you eat meat, make sure it's lean and keep portions small. And before you cook it, first try to remove any fat you can see. Spice it up. Herbs and spices boost flavor and lessen the need for salt. The Mediterranean diet has a lot of flexibility, so you can make it a delicious and nutritious way to eat. Follow this eating pattern long-term to get the most of out of it.
Good info. I had bypass surgery several years ago and recently had a stent placed. My cardiologist wants me to take a baby aspirin and Plavix every day for at least a year. After the one year I plan to ask him about stopping the aspirin every day. I'm already having stomach problems from the aspirin, but the doctor said it would be high risk to stop it. I agree you shouldn't take it for primary prevention.
So glad I saw this!!!! I’m 74 and just saw a cardiologist today because of some issues with my heart. I was going to start taking a baby aspirin tomorrow because everyone is telling me to take one a day. I eat fairly healthy but I am determined to try harder….we are what we eat! Thank you doctor, you’re the BEST! ❤
Major mistake. It you have certain heart issues and your cardiologist recommends baby aspirin take it or you may be on your way to taking the blood thinner warfarin if your heart condition worsens. You did not listen to this video properly.
Dr. Ken, at almost 70 years old, I have been taking a daily 81mg aspirin for about 30 years. However, I take it because of what was finally determined to be a family inherited genetic disorder called "Factor V Leiden thrombophilia". When my sister was diagnosed after a CVA resulting from a blockage, she told as many people in the family to go be tested as she could. I know you are not a cardiologist, a neurologist or hemotologist, but Factor V Leiden thrombophilia is a relatively unknown issue until it hits someone within a family. Just my two cents. Keep up the GREAT work! BTW, thanks to your informational and motivating videos, I am now down over 140 pounds, no longer hypertensive, my BP stays around 128/68, Pulse of 60, I am no longer diagnosed as diabetic (two years with A1c less than 5.3), and my "COPD" has become allergic asthma. Just the monthly savings in prescriptions alone allows me to continue my carnivore diet! Thank you again!
Thank you. My fiance 70 year old fiance had a heart attack due to afib. Her arteries were clear. The cardiologist recommended blood thinners and she was bleeding from her mouth and nose. Then he recommended baby aspirin. He had to recommend as per AMA. God help us from allopathic medicine
I’m glad the doctor brought out the stent issue. I’m 65 years old and I don’t take aspirin. Honestly I’m in good shape my labs are good! My primary care doctor, and I were discussing this aspirin issue a while back! She told me of another patient who had stents inserted several years before. Was put on plavix and aspirin! For some reason, this patient stopped taking either one! My doctor told me it took about six months, the stent collapsed, and the patient never made it to the hospital!
The ordination in Sweden is 75mg of Aspirin until one year after a heart attack. They also recommend stopping after one year. Preventive ordination is disrecommended. My uncle is a medical doctor and has taken it since in his 50ies and he is 98 now!
I had a stroke in 2020, just after Covid began shutting the world down. In the hospital, they began me on a daily baby aspirin and my doctor has continued it since. I thought I was taking it to prevent clots forming in the brain leading to another stroke. I will be seeing her on the 23rd for my next A1c so I will ask about it, thanks for the information!
you make a lot of sense with all your videos, i had a triple by pass in 2020 and instead of taking blood thinners my cardiologist has me on a baby aspirin a day, yes i bleed easier etc. something you should be emphatic about is the people with so little common sense they only pay attention to the phrase, don't take this. some of the comments i see are scary, reminds me of the problems i have when trying to teach people how to do complicated chores, most skip 90% of instructions and turn a deaf ear to how dangerous it is to now follow instructions to the letter. it's hard to live in this new world after living so long in the real world, it's like ignorance prevailed over education about 40yrs ago.
i think thats pretty stupid to stop doing something that has worked for yrs by listening to one guy on net! talk to your doctor first or you may regret it?
@@stephengarrison8027 my Dr told me not to take daily aspirin due to seeing increased stomach cancer in his patient's and I have been on thinners for 6 yrs. for a p.e. my Dr. has been in practice for 50+ yrs. and professor for 30+ yrs.
My doctor Scott Jensen in MN told me a few years ago that he no longer recommended baby aspirin for a blood thinner because of increased stomach cancer in his patient's and I wound up taking Xarelto from a P.E. incident.
My brother died 11 months ago from complications from a bleed on the brain. He had taken baby aspirin then blood thinners. Thank you Doctor for sharing this important information.
I had a mild heart attack 17 years ago (I’m 69 now) and was advised to take this with very small doses of other standard after heart attack meds. My stress test is fine, fit and active. No problems at all, year after year. Read the authoritative book on Aspirin, it more of a positive than a negative.
I'm 37. I was diagnosed with May Thurners Syndrome in April, and put on a daily baby aspirin. My left iliac vein is compressed down to 4mm, and my Doctor wants to place a stent. Now I'm a little nervous lol. Also, I weighed 364lbs in 2017, and was told I couldn't lose weight without surgery. I started keto. I am now 150lbs. I'm carnivore now, and have put my autoimmune issues into remission (most of the time unless I get super stressed), and feel so much better. I was thankful to be diagnosed with MTS, instead of being called crazy lol, but sad that this is something carnivore can't fix. Carnivore has fixed everything else for me! You and Neisha have been a tremendous help to me. Thank you!
@BetterOff735 I do OMAD. Fasting won't help with MTS though. My iliac vein in my pelvis is compressed. I'm absolutely a firm believer in fasting though! Sadly, it can't move things around to decompress my vein though. 🖤
Believe it or not I had been taking a full aspirin (325mg) daily from 1986 until about 2015 on the recommendation of a man who had been taking them for years and the reading I did that claimed that it reduced certain types of cancers. I was in the military, lifted daily and ran everything including marathons and ultras. Of course once I turned 60 (67 now) all the bad eating and bodily punishment I did for years started haunting me, from ankle surgeries for missing tendons and ankle replacement all the way to AFIB (under control after two cardio versions and an ablation). Multaq is now my best friend as well as Eliquis. I like to think that the unbridled consumption of trillions of carbs contributed to all the minor arthritis I’m experiencing now in every joint, a tale of warning of the younger ones who are beating their bodies up physically and nutritionally.
Please consider fasting followed by Keto or Carnivore and intermittent fasting. It will reverse type 2 diabetes, which in turn will cause weight reduction, fatty liver reversal, a good number of heart issues, and reduce the chance of or even reverse some cancers. It's the way we evolved to eat. Historically we didn't eat and snack 5 and 6 times a day, and carbs are NOT an essential part of your diet. Avoid fast food, pre prepared foods, carbs and seed oils and life will start to be much less painful, and hopefully longer.
From the British Journal of Cancer - Aspirin inhibits the enzyme cyclooxygenase (Cox), and there is a significant body of epidemiological evidence demonstrating that regular aspirin use is associated with a decreased incidence of developing cancer.
I had a stroke my brain scan shows some atherosclerosis not good. I am 61 and am now on 325 mg of aspirin. Not to sure if I would take a chance of stopping. So far I am doing ok on it. But knowing this I will definitely keep an eye on it. My nurosurgeon put me on it and assured me it was save. What's a person to do.
Yep, I’m one of those people who believed that a baby aspirin would prevent a heart attack, some thing I heard, and read many years ago. On and of I would do this therapy, but not consistently, thank goodness. I’m one of those people who have heart palpitations, and yet they can find nothing seriously wrong, test after test, monitors, etc. But as of today listening to Dr. Berry, I’m not taking another baby aspirin.
One teaspoon of cayenne pepper added to water has many heart benefits. I have even heard doctors using it to stop a heart attack. Look into it. Do your own research.
Been taking a baby aspirin daily for 11 years for the prevention of cancer. The research is solid with that reduction in risk, as much as 50% for colon cancer specifically, but very few doctors even know about it or talk about it.
From my understanding, studies on humans can never determine true risks because they can't be done to strict standards. Cigarette smoking is an exception because the numbers are extremely high for negative health outcomes of smokers vs non-smokers. But other studies on the subject of food and other things are manipulated to produce certain results. Professor Bart Kay has discussed the subject.
Better take vitamin c + baking soda . Plus citric acid + baking soda . Does not have any side effect . if you overdo the vit c , you can get loose stool (I use it reduce my constipation ! no doctor recommends it )
@@w1975b - I think your understanding is wrong. Rigorous testing to strict standards is done every day and made public for everyone to tear apart. That's what makes the scientific community different from faith healers...
I have had two heart attacks. They put a stent in , put me on baby aspirin and blood thinners. Two years later had another heart attack. The place they put the stent in filled up with my own tissue so they are to put another stent in the same place. Then about a year later my iron went down to 6 . I understand under 5 you need transfusions. I was also having black diarrhea for a long time every couple of weeks. So I was told that is old blood. I was bleeding intermally somewhere. I have had ct scans and scopes etc. They found nothing. I had immediately went off the blood thinners but still kept taking the baby aspirin. Cardiologist said I needed to take it for life. Trying to get my iron up with ferritin. But it keeps coming back down. Then I started researching baby apspirin and found out it can cause bleeds every where in your body. So I had a bleed somewhere intestinally but they couldn't find it. Still haven't. On my own I stopped taking the baby aspirin and haven't had the black diarrhea since. I will be getting my iron checked this month so I am hoping it is back up. Also started carnivore 2 weeks ago. I AM VERY WORRIED about having another heart attack from a blood clot forming in the artery as I know from research that is soft plack comes through the etherderal layer of the artery , as soon as it reaches your blood it will form a clot and that is what kills you. I feel like I am dammned if I do and dammed if I don't. SO I REALLY NEED TO HEAR WHAT YOU HAVE TO SAY ABOUT BABY ASPIRIN AND STENTS.
I can never take baby aspirin . Once i found out i was diabetic my dr told me I would have to start taking it daily. So i did. Few years later i kept getting major stomach pains. I found out on the news how people had to stop taking aspirin due to stomach issues. Well ding ding, that was a wake up call for me. I stopped taking it to see if the pains would stop. Well few months later i had my drs appointment and i told her how i stopped taking the aspirin and why. She asked me what happened after. I said the pains stopped. She told me i dont have to take it.
Dr. Ken, this video got my attention so here’s the quick and dirty on my situation: I’m turning 62 next month. I’ve never had a heart attack, no stints, no bypass surgery. I don’t smoke (quit over 20 years ago), drink only in moderation, and exercise regularly. I’m not Mr. Health Nut when it comes to eating habits, but I stay away from fast food and junk foods most of the time. I’m 5’7” and around 225 lbs.; could stand to lose weight, definitely, but I also do a lot of pushups so there’s more upper body mass than those numbers would suggest. However, back in 2007, sixteen years ago this very month, I had a blood clot that put me in emergency. That I forced myself to eat a yogurt and take a regular aspirin when I staggered home from night shift could very well have saved my life. Since then I’ve been on a daily baby aspirin regimen. I would add that in terms of family history, my mom’s side generally didn’t have heart issues, but my dad’s side definitely had heart attacks and high blood pressure. Nowadays for me BP tends to be around 130/80 and heart rate is in the 65-70 range. What say you? Thanks in advance for your response.
Thank Dr. Berry, for this thorough review of the New Guidelines for baby aspirin. You are a real Mensch (stand up guy)! PS: I do follow your videos and appreciate them. I know you have helped me become healthier, over these last two years, and want you to know this! Bill Pennington, TX
Why I admire and respect you for your passionate delivery, my father is 94 and I've been giving him 81mg. aspirin pills (Ecotrin and other generics provided by US Air Force pharmacies) for at least the past 12 years. I don't doubt that aspirin has the many effects you say, knowing how it affects my hearing if I happen to take too much during a toothache. He also takes Plavix, so I'm not 100% sure he should be taking aspirin too, but his HEART doctors suggested he take the aspirin too. Yes, he does bleed a little bit more because of the Plavix and aspirin, but I think a little more blood and a lot less heart attack goes a long way to giving us a little peace of mind. 😉I know this is anecdotal, but so are many of the responses below on the other side of the coin. Empirical evidence goes a long way. Perhaps some links to peer-reviewed papers or books? Thanks. Peace!
I’m looking forward to the video you make for secondary prevention. Mom had a heart stent in the 2000s and was on Plavix but now just baby aspirin. The main issue I see is that she has trouble bruising often whenever bumping into things and she also bleeds very easily, and for a longer time.
I was on Plavix for 8 months after heart stents late last year. The bruises were horrible. So far, the many bruises I had in June have gone away, but I’m still on 81 mg aspirin every day. I take it with my coffee, bacon and eggs each morning, so I’m hoping the food helps it not do too much damage and just enough good to keep the stents from getting clots. Praying for your mom.
Plavix is a drug from h*ll. Doc reccomended it, but I passed. I had OHS in '17, and an endocarotidectomy a year ago, so baby aspirin, yes. not every day, though. Garlic, yes Plavix, no thank you. I am 77 and in good health. I also had a mild stroke before the roto rooter job.. Big pharma is a ruthless money grabbing monster and they don't want us to get healthy
I’m 55 yrs old and after an angiogram they discovered 30% blockage in my left coronary artery. My cardiologist put me on a baby Asprin 6 months ago as a result of those findings. My family physician agrees with my cardiologist. With all do respect, I will do what my heart doctor tells me to do, not some RUclips video
Well, I did what I was told after my Heart attack at 52 in January. Now I have been in the Hospital two weeks in a row with serious Tachycardia. I was told they dont know what causes it. Well, after a few days of searching I have realized it has been caused by my aspirin suddenly. Dr's go to school to learn from others who learned how to medicate. Never do they diagnose the cause instead of the symptom. We do not have heart disease because we lack salicylates (aspirin).
You doctor is just reading from the same playbook as the cardiologist. Aspirin reduces the incidence of clotting. and can be helpful in some cases. BUT it encourages bleeding. I had to give up after a string of nosebleeds. You also have to ask yourself - am I bleeding internally? Maybe your gut maybe your arteries.
My hubby kept taking that aspirin until he had a massive nose bleed that the emergency room could hardly stop. He bled for nearly 3 hours. The ENT we saw the next day said quit taking that aspirin!
I have been taking 325 mg aspirin for 24 years now with now side effects. That is 4 times a baby aspirin. I have always taken 3 or 4 aspirin with coffee for headaches. I am 70 now. The aspirin doesn't bother my stomach unless it is empty. I think of aspirin as my friend. I avoid ibuprofen and Tylenol. I think a lot depend on the person. I am a big male 70 years old.
I agree with you 100% . Years ago I ware told to take baby aspirin and I did . Then my arms and legs has bruises everywhere so I stopped. Not to mention little blood vessels in my fingers would just pop and we’re very painful. Thank you Dr. Barry for letting everyone know this very important information so that they don’t have to find out the hard way the way I did.❤
Thank you for this video and for truly caring so much about everyone! Dr. Berry, would you consider doing a video on the difference (and/or similarity) between a true blood clot and platelet aggregation. Thank you.
Thank you Doctor Berry . Very informative. I am over 60 years of age and have been taking half an Aspirin a day as a preventive measure for many years. I do not have any known heart condition. I will cease taking half an Aspirin a day. Thank you.
I am 62 years old. I had bovine mitral valve replacement in October 2021. I had no symptoms prior (except for slight prolapse) and am very healthy (other than that apparently). I was instructed to take a baby aspirin daily to keep clots from forming on the valve. I asked him about this my 1 year checkin and he said that taking it after mitral valve replacement is different than to avoid heart attack. What say you :) Thank you.
I am in the same boat with the valves. Was told to take baby aspirin also. I have been taking one for years. My Dr. was very well known so I think I'll stick with his advice! Thanks for you inpit Cindyhenry!
Thanks Dr Ken, I have been taking a baby aspirin for over 20 years and at 73 I will stop. Also I was in the hospital for a week a couple of years ago due to internal bleeding due to ischemic colitis. FYI I started keto 3 months ago and have been able to stop 3 of my BP meds I was taking twice a day, stopped livalo & ezetimibe, glyburide, nexium, and singular. So now I am down to ranolazine and lisinopril twice a day. Also as a T2D my fasting BS is now ranging between 85-95.
@@heisenberg8346 someone who took BP med said when she started experiencing fainting from low blood pressure, her doctor took her off. Just to be clear, I'm **NOT** giving advice, but sharing info that magnesium naturally lowers blood pressure (as an adult, you can look into this further if you choose and make a decision after that). I think Dr. Berry has said that consuming high carb is one of the biggest causes of high blood pressure, so reducing carbs would be good. Great job stopping smoking and drinking, that's a big win.
I am a 60 years old woman. In 2010 and 2011 I had numerous TIA's. I have no lingering affects. My neurologist never could find the cause. He put me on 350 mg of aspirin daily instead of Plavix. He said the aspirin would do the same for me and I wouldn't need a prescription to get it. I've been on it ever since. I have occasional tinnitus, but no other issues. This video is slightly alarming. I will check with my doctor about this new information.
My great-grandmother had been taking daily aspirin. She went for a walk, fell, and hit her head on a rock. She went home, laid down, and put her feet up, and nearly bled out.
Most EXCELLENT instructional-video, Dr. Ken! Thanks very much for sharing with the rest of us. And yes, I'll be ringing up my cardio-Doc within the next 30-minutes or so, and as you had advised us all, will be double-checking with him on this.
I have damaged heart valves because of childhood illnesses and so I am interested in what I can do to help myself. When this baby aspirin issue came into my life I didn't have any guidance from the doctors. I have also had trouble with the "ulcer bug " that made me anemic and at times would make my stomach bleed. So the doctors couldn't decide if I should take the aspirin or not! I told them that I wouldn't because the risk of a bleeding ulcer was something I had to deal with not them! After seeing this video I am so glad that I didn't start the aspirin and my instincts were spot on!! 😊
I can't wait to see your video for people who have had bypass surgeries. I have been on keto for the last 2 years, dropped 70 pounds, and been on Carnivore for the last 2 weeks. (just started) On my next cardiologist visit, I am going to set up scans to find where I am at on the risk scale now to reassess my meds. He said already it looks like I have reduced my arterial plaque and that was 6 months ago. He is very interested in watching my keto journey. We will see what he says when he finds out I have now moved to carnivore. :-)
@@troykrepps1962 Going strict keto, exercising, and taking 1000 mg of krill oil caplets each day. My cardiologist also added strong vitamin D twice a week. He will be setting me up for a new calcium score test later this year, but he is seeing improvement through the ultrasound scan he had done. Granted there is a long way to go, but I am moving in the right direction. I would rather get slower better than slowly worse for sure. At 46, I went to the hospital almost dead. 2 heart surgeries later (quad bypass) and more recently learning about keto, and now carnivore, I hope to get some years back at the end. I just turned 59 a couple of weeks ago and feel as good as when in my earlier 40's for the most part. The calcium score may not be a lot better, but I have been off statins for the last 3 years so he is hoping that the larger buildups are shrinking as well as the areas he was able to check with the ultrasound. He said the statins make the calcium harder so it will not go away fast, but he is studying my progress to see how I do with keto. I am staying in Carnivore for at least one month and will see how it goes. I only seem to miss the veggies a little so that is cool.
At 63, I was prescribed low dose aspirin as a prophylactic by my doc for about two years. Eventually ended up in the Emergency Room 4 times in one week for episodes of severe abdominal pain and nausea. They could not figure out why I was having these attacks. Eventually got in to a gastroenterologist that figured out it was ulcers from the aspirin. Stopped taking it and now back to normal. Horrible experience I hope never to repeat. So be very careful taking this stuff.
I was taking 10 pills a day one of those being a baby aspirin. I have taken myself off of most of my pills. I did this after seeing my last bloodwork. I am now taking 3 pills a day and about to go off of 2 of those. The last pill I have to take because I no longer have a thyroid and it is needed. My diabetic doctor is trying to get me to take my cholesterol pills and my pre diabetic pills. I have dropped 70 pounds and he didn’t even look at my blood work before he said this. I am completely carnivore. I am waiting for the last results of my blood work to come in.
As a 71-year-old with a stent and a history of heart attacks, I take a baby aspirin and Ramipril daily for "secondary" protection. So I am looking out for your follow-up video dealing with secondary protection
@@setdown2 I'm assuming that the advice will be to carry on taking the medication (in my case baby aspirin & Ramipril). In an ideal scenario, I would prefer not to take medication, however, if it's protecting my stent and preventing another clot then I'm continuing with the drugs
Same age, one stent snd ramipril but, Somewhere along the way the narrative got changed. This is why I started taking low dose aspirin: “Low-dose aspirin, 81 milligrams a day in the United States, prevents mortality and metastasis from cancer,” says Vanderbilt’s John Oates, M.D., who helped define the molecular basis for aspirin’s effects. Metastasis is the spread of cancer to other parts of the body. “This is most striking in adenocarcinomas (tumors arising from glandular tissue), particularly the colon and the lung, which are some of the most malignant and difficult to treat,” says Oates, the Thomas F. Frist Professor of Medicine. “The studies are definitive because they are controlled clinical trials.” Not to prevent heart attacks…

Me cardiologist out me on a baby aspirin, because I have a rare heart aneurism and I refused a prescription pills because it would cause swollen ankles and lower my blood pressure and I dint have hight blood pressure. When I take the aspirin I don’t have palpitations and feel fine.
I have been taking a 100mg Aspirin tablet each day for many years. I recently stopped taking it after hearing about the new guidelines. Within two weeks, the veins on my upper right leg started to expand and became painful and this scared me. I then re-started taking the aspirin again. Within a week or so the veins went back to normal. I have continued to take my Aspirin daily.
henry, that is interesting, I wonder if the aspirin caused this issue and now without the aspirin the swelling is the swelling appear, it could be a discontinuation syndrome symptom
The problem as I see it is that most prescription heart drugs cost a fortune aspirin are cheap and probably safer.
I just wish the so-called "experts" would make up their minds, instead of changing their guidance every couple of years. Eating eggs, drinking coffee, now taking baby aspirins - who knows what's next. It wouldn't surprise me if someday, they decide that smoking is actually good for you.

Great
Please do the video for those with heart issues about baby aspirin. I had a full stemi heart attack with 3 stents 3 years ago. The baby aspirin is the only meds I take. I no longer take Plavix or any other heart meds. Refused statins from the beginning. With diet & exercise, doing great.
HOLD ON THERE! I took a full size aspirin for 33 years until last year when I read about the new guidelines. I felt great while I took the aspirin. No joint pain, I would jog 2 miles a day, and I felt great. However, I would bleed a lot when I cut myself or would get really big bruises. Even the phlebotomist would know I took aspirin each time I had a blood test because my blood was very watery. So, what did I do when I read the new research and guidelines? I stopped taking the aspirin. About 10 days later I was jogging my 2 miles at night when I noticed I was really out of breath. I stopped, took my pulse, and it was 248 beats a minute. I instantly knew what my mistake had been. I had stopped taking the daily full aspirin cold turkey. So, I went home and chewed an aspirin down. I felt much better within ten minutes. So, PLEASE, just don't stop talking the baby aspirin. Wean yourself off of it very slowly. It's been about a year now and I'm down to one full aspirin a week. (I stopped jogging too.) As far as the joint pain and pain from all my past injuries, it was bad. My mobility decrease substantially and I would groan in pain everything I would sit or stand, just like the old man I had become. The good news is that late last year I took up bee keeping. I get stung at least 4 times a week. Many times much more. To my neverending surprise, the bee stings have done away with my joint pain and lack of mobility. I now actually appreciate every time I get stung by a bee. The bee will die after it stings me, but I will be free of pain. Life is a huge mystery full of surprises guys.
I’ve heard of one woman that used bee stings to control and then get rid of her limes disease.
Be careful with getting stung a lot, though. Some people develop deathly allergy after so many stings and the next sting can kill them.

Good for you
An awesome common sense story. Thanks!!!
I'm 42. After Covid last year, I asked my cardiologist if it was a good idea to take aspirin, and he said NO. Anyone who does not have a HA or CVD should never ever take aspirin. I went to him because I was suffering from cardiophobia and had a couple of panic attacks. He ran all tests and all was good. Suffered for months from anxiety UNTIL I cought the Carnivore / Keto train and everything dissapeared completely. Then I thought to myself, still 42, this will be my train for life so when I turn 60 - 70 - 80 or whatever I wouldn't regret anything.
Your cardiologist seems like one of the few good ones out thre. From my experience most cardiologists are pill pushers.

Curing disease or even preventing disease is not the financial goal. Instead, treating the symptom but never curing the disease makes for big profits in this world that's all that matters. Dr.Berry is one of the very few you can trust especially after covid with so many Doctors and Nurses being forced out of medicine for refusing the jab. If you can find a Doctor that had to relocate or start a private practice for refusing the jab, They are the Doctors you should be looking for.
Your Dr is wrong. That is a simplistic answer from the Dr. Even in cvd asprin isn't the answer for a cascade of reasons
@LivingInAnInverseReality HA = Heart Attack
CVD = ?
Thanks. I am 82, never had a heart attack and now will talk to my MD.
Thanks, Doc. I learned a lot. I will ask my primary physician about this during my annual phys this month. He's a sharp guy, but NO one is expected to know everything. I'm 70, and the field of medicine has changed dramatically over the last 4 to 5 decades ♡ Thx
Doctors need to be held accountable for not keeping up with this information!
Problem is -- should the new studies be believed?
Doctors are trained at pharma owned schools, trained to prescribe pharma drugs and read journals financed by pharma.... CURES ARE MONEY LOSERS for pharmaceutical producers!
Few can know if any drugs are effective or are just addictive and/or life long money generators for pharma.
Thanks Dr. Berry. Im 54, 2 years since stage 1 breast cancer, all gone now, but taking Tamoxifin and a baby aspirin too, she says "just in case, it won't hurt". Think I'll look for that study and ask her if she still thinks I need it. She also says to limit red meat. 🙄 Ha! Almost 4 years keto, and 8 months ketovire, 100lbs down. Huzzah!
Would love a Tamoxifin video one day. I have a feeling I don't need that either 😢. Thanks!
When we were all told to stop baby aspirin if we were over 60, I did.....and in a couple of days, I was crippled by arthritis in my ankles. This had suddenly hit me at 30, but seems to have been kept under control especially with the (baby) aspirin. I considered a full aspirin, and a visit to the doctor, but decided just to go back on the baby aspirin. 99% of the problem solved. I informed my doctor, but am not willing to give it up. Life isn't worth living if I can't walk. Now 76, over six months on keto, still on baby aspirin, and grateful that I live in a city where you don't need a car. I walk EVERYWHERE.
are you keto, ketovore, or carnivore?
@@mikedavis2566Vitamin k2 mk4 twice a day does wonders also turmeric
Aspirin has a broad spectrum of therapeutic effects. I use it on my worst days and it always makes me feel better immediately. This anti-aspirin agenda is being orchestrated by pharmaceutical companies to get people to move over to their patented alternatives. Aspirin is not a pharmaceutical drug, it's salycilic acid from the bark of willow trees. It's the patented formulations that make these companies money.

He might cover that in some of his heart videos.
Me too

My husband and I are too.
He mentioned this and said his recommendation is for primary prevention, the stint situation would make the BA secondary, he also Sid, “don’t listen to me”. About the BA
I'm soon to be 69 years old and have been religiously taken the baby aspirin since the early 90s. I'll watch the video, but honerstly, I'm so leary of discontinuing it.
I had a quadruple bypass and I won't put anything in my body. I was doing keto and now I'm doing carnivore. I never had a heart attack but I'll tell you ever since I started doing these diets I just wish I never would have got my heart surgery I would of fixed it naturally with food.. my doctor told me to eating very lean meats and lots of vegetables and keep my cholesterol below 50. That pretty much summed up that I shouldn't listen to him anymore. I think I would be way healthier if I would have never listened to these doctors to begin with.
Agreed. Same here.
Good for you , my Dad had the same procedure and was healing fine till all the medications they gave him killed him ,specifically Amiodarone ! I strongly encourage everyone to never take that crap ! It caused my Dads lungs to scar and he could no longer breath . If murder was legal that cardiologist would be toast ! I truly miss my Dad and he should still be here . He had a second family later in life and it was heart breaking to see my sisters see their Dad die .
@@alaindelon5398 I had it the end of 2015. I was just eating what they recommended pretty much just a lot more of it plus I had fast food very often. Even after the surgery they put me on a bad diet that it seemed like I never improved. Telling me lots of whole grain and vegetables with a little bit of meat. I lost so much muscle doing that and never got that back. Doing carnivore I never felt so good and full of energy.
My dad had CLL but I believe it was Lyme related. He had to take iron and vitamin c. He still lived to 95.. I wish he could have lived forever or until I couldn’t be here any longer.
Fermented vegetables..like sauerkraut
Andrew T. Chan, MD, MPH, a gastroenterologist, Director of Epidemiology at Massachusetts General Cancer Center, and Professor of Medicine at Harvard Medical School. “The data are quite compelling supporting the use of aspirin,” Dr. Chan said in an interview with The ASCO Post. “Looking back, the recommendation statement of 2016 was a milestone for cancer prevention-recognition of the compelling data supporting the use of aspirin to reduce colorectal cancer risk.
My dad was on a blood thinner and also taking a full size aspirin daily. He started bleeding internally through his intestines. They became so perforated that even surgery was not an option. Despite all the efforts. The countless blood transfusions and the clotting drugs. He passed away. Too much of anything is no good. He had a heart condition but that not what took his life. Medicine can be a double edged sword at times. Long term uses of multiple blood thinners took him. If you are on long term blood thinners. Check your stool. If it’s black. Speak up to your doctor. Easier to correct when caught early.
wow, sorry for your loss.
The same happened to my father. I belive the doctors accelerated his death with all this medication and putting him on a high carb low fat diet.
I mean you should never be taking a full aspirin and a bt at the same time, specially not long term.
I am 76 and have BRADICARDIA. A CARDIOLOGIST prescribed Ecotrin and Vusor 20mg. There is NOTHING WRONG WITH MY HEART the cardiologist said. PERHAPS the antidepressant and anxiety meds Im taking. I have calcification of 300 and cardiologist said he will treat this VERY AGGRESSIVELY. That is too clear my arteries. The result is that I am SO TIRED AND LETHARGIC. I just wsnt to lay down. Maybe due to baby aspirin. At age 76, I feel my body cant stand this harsh treatment. When I take my BLOOD PRESSURE meds, I am so weak and dizzy that I must hold onto something not to fall over. Is my cardiologist meaning good, but actually killing me!
Im done with baby aspirin and will reduce Vusor to 10mg. Thank you dr for your advice!
True, it's individual. Everyone is different. So I'll continue until my cardiologist says otherwise.
Thanks Doc. Ken. I just lost my mother, she took 1/2 of a baby aspirin a day . she fell and hit her head and had internal bleeding on the brain because of this. You are right we should not take the aspirin
Sorry for the loss of your mom.
Does this also apply to blood thinners??
I'm so sorry for your loss.
I'm sorry. My mother died the same way. She took a huge amount of aspirin for arthritis pain, but the doctor said her injury was invariably fatal. She was expected to take several days to die, but died just twenty one hrs. after the injury. I suppose the aspirin could have contributed, but state mandated autopsy for brain injury death showed she had far more severe damage from the fall than they had thought. You're in grief now, and I understand the temptation to perseverate about such a thing, but grant yourself that you did the best you could with what you knew.
I'm so sorry for your loss. 🙏
I want to thank you for posting your story. I have problems with balance and have fallen and hit my head. I will no longer be taking asprin.
Thank you and

NSAIDs contributed to my leaky gut issues
I'm 70 years old and have been taking asprin 32 years ,every since I had a heartattack at age 38 .I also have 5 stints and have had no problems taking asprin.
Your heart has been okay since yr 1st heart attack?
RUclips video from Cardiff University “Aspirin and cancer: The emerging evidence”.
Yes, seemingly accurate and important finding (requiring more research). STILL: in the first few minutes of this video Dr Berry correctly states that all pharmaceuticals have myriad actions (mechanisms, side effects). Especially with longterm use. True also of so-called “supplements” (not regulated as drugs are in the USA).
Thank you, Dr. Berry for the references. I forwarded them to my primary care physician.
You are a Godsend!
My family has a very high risk of blood clots causing early deaths. I will continue to take the baby aspirin. Dr. Berry, I truly respect you and know you are a doctor that cares for his patients, but have these new guidelines been established by studies done in the US? If so, that immediately makes me suspect that its not for our good. Sorry for being skeptical, but after the entire vax push and seeing how it has negatively affected thousands, I don't base any medical decisions on studies done in the US.
You are very smart! Got to be careful who you listen to and what new studies come out. If it’s the fda or cdc I’m thinking do the opposite of what they say. They honestly don’t care.
I still remember when butter and eggs were no good.
When you know you know
There are much safer options than aspirin.
I agree. Democrats are in charge and they are clueless. Don’t listen to them.
Now I know why I just received a letter from my health insurance company informing me that that the ACA Drug List will no longer cover aspirin as a preventative medicine. Thank you Dr Berry, I’m happy to have found you channel!
Y'all don't find it strange that just as studies are coming out saying aspirin can possibly prevent/help cure cancer, that all the sudden Drs are claiming it's dangerous n insurance providers won't cover it? 😯🤔 Highly sus
The problem is that the guidelines are always bullcrap 20 years later. The guidelines still say don't eat butter and eggs.
Since I broke away from the Guidelines, my cholesterol has been better. My HDL was always below 40. Since I broke away it has gone up into the low 50s with my LDL in the high 50s.
Real butter and eggs have the vit k2..which keeps the inner lining of the arteries to harden.
Alot of butter isn't good for you. Small amounts of butter is ok and the carnivore diet is Bull$hit too! The best lifestyle eating is mediterranean hands done!
@@rainesonne1320 firstly, define the "mediterranean diet". (you can't.)
secondly, you have 0 evidence for your ignorant claim.
The Mediterranean diet is a healthy-eating plan. It's focused on plants and includes the traditional flavors and cooking methods of the region. It's less of a diet, meaning not a restricted way to eat, and more of a lifestyle that blends the basics of healthy eating with the traditional flavors and cooking methods of the people in the Mediterranean region.
Why the Mediterranean diet? It is known to have an effect on long-term diseases. These include heart and blood vessel problems known as cardiovascular disease. Observations from a study in the 1960s found that cardiovascular disease was linked to fewer deaths in some Mediterranean countries, such as Greece and Italy, than in the U.S. and northern Europe.
More-recent studies linked the Mediterranean diet with lower risk factors for heart disease, such as high cholesterol and high blood pressure. Today, the Mediterranean diet is one of the healthy eating plans that American nutrition experts recommend. It's also recognized by the World Health Organization as a healthy-eating pattern. Many cultures have eating patterns similar to the Mediterranean diet, including Japan, for example. And other diets have some of the same recommendations as the Mediterranean diet. Two examples are the Dietary Approaches to Stop Hypertension (DASH) diet, and the Dietary Guidelines for Americans. Research suggests that it's key to follow the Mediterranean diet over the long term for your heart to benefit.
What is the Mediterranean diet?
The Mediterranean diet is a way of eating based on the traditional cuisine of countries bordering the Mediterranean Sea. There's no single definition for the diet. But most often, it's high in:
Vegetables.
Fruits.
Whole grains.
Beans.
Nuts and seeds.
Olive oil.
Seasoning with herbs and spices.
The main steps to follow the diet include:
Each day, eat vegetables, fruits, whole grains and plant-based fats.
Each week, have fish, poultry, beans, legumes and eggs.
Enjoy moderate portions of dairy products.
Limit how much red meat you eat.
Limit how many foods with added sugar you eat.
Some other elements of the Mediterranean diet are to:
Share meals with family and friends.
Get regular exercise.
Enjoy wine in moderation if you drink alcohol.
Plant based, not meat based
The foundation of the Mediterranean diet is plant foods. That means meals are built around vegetables, fruits, herbs, nuts, beans and whole grains.
Moderate amounts of dairy, poultry and eggs are part of the Mediterranean diet, as is seafood. In contrast, red meat is eaten only once in a while.
Healthy fats
Unsaturated fats are a strength of the Mediterranean diet. They're eaten instead of saturated and trans fats, which play roles in heart disease.
Olive oil and nuts are the main sources of fat in the Mediterranean diet. They provide unsaturated fat. When unsaturated fat comes from plant sources, it seems to lower levels of total cholesterol as well as low-density lipoprotein, also called LDL or "bad" cholesterol.
Replacing saturated fat with polyunsaturated fat lowers risk of cardiovascular disease events and death related to cardiovascular disease, according to the Dietary Guidelines for Americans.
Seafood, seeds, nuts, legumes and some vegetable oils have healthy fats, including the polyunsaturated kind.
Fish also are a key part of the Mediterranean diet. Some healthy choices are:
Mackerel.
Herring.
Sardines.
Albacore tuna.
Salmon.
Anchovies.
These are known as fatty fish. And the fats they contain are omega-3 fatty acids.
Omega-3s are unsaturated fats that may lower immune system action in the body known as inflammation. They also may help reduce blood fats called triglycerides, and they affect blood clotting. Omega 3s may lower the risk of stroke and heart failure too.
Lean fish and shellfish also are included in the Mediterranean diet. Shellfish include shrimp, crab, clams and scallops. Some types of lean fish are cod, haddock, hake and whitefish.
Choose fish that are low in mercury, such as the ones listed above. This is important for children ages 1 to 11 and people who are pregnant and breastfeeding.
Too much mercury can harm the brain and nervous system over time. If your family catches and eats fish, check local fish advisories to find out about any cases of mercury contamination.
What about wine?
Like people all over the world, some who live in the Mediterranean region drink alcohol and some do not. Many versions of the Mediterranean diet include some wine with a meal.
Red wine tends to be included more often than is white wine. Some experts and dietary guidelines recommend that women limit themselves to one glass of wine a day, and for men no more than two glasses a day.
Alcohol has been linked with a lower risk of heart disease in some studies. But it's not risk-free. So don't start to drink alcohol or drink more often in hopes of gaining possible health benefits.
Recent studies cast doubt on the notion that even a little alcohol may be good for the heart.
One large study suggested that people who regularly drank any amount of alcohol had a higher risk of high blood pressure and coronary artery disease. The more alcohol they drank, the higher the risk.
Another study found that having slightly more than one alcoholic drink a day was linked with a higher risk of atrial fibrillation, a type of irregular heartbeat.
If you drink alcohol, talk to your health care provider or a specialist in nutrition, called a dietitian, to figure out what amount - if any - is right for you.
Factors that affect your decision might be the extra calories alcohol brings to the diet, or any kidney or liver problems you may have. And if you just don't like the taste of alcohol, that's a good reason to stay away from it too.
Eating the Mediterranean way
Want to try the Mediterranean diet? These tips will help you get started:
Eat more fruits and vegetables. Each day, aim for 2 to 3 servings of fruit and four or more servings of vegetables. One serving of fruit equals a medium piece of whole fruit or one cup of chopped. One serving of vegetables equals two cups of leafy produce, one cup of raw veggies, or half a cup of cooked vegetables.
Choose whole grains. Switch to whole-grain bread, cereal and pasta. You also can try other whole grains, such as bulgur, barley and farro. If you eat about 2,000 calories a day, aim to have at least 3 ounces of whole grains. You can get 1 ounce from a slice of bread, a cup of ready-made cereal, or half a cup of cooked rice or pasta. Read the Nutrition Facts label to find out how much of a product is in one serving.
Use unsaturated fats from plants. Replacing saturated fats with unsaturated fats may help lower the risk of heart disease. For example, you could replace butter with olive, canola, or safflower or sunflower oil in cooking or at the table. And instead of putting butter or margarine on bread, you could use nut or seed spreads on toast or on an apple.
Eat more seafood. Eat fish or shellfish 2 to 3 times a week. Children and people who are pregnant or breastfeeding may want to limit certain types of fish due to mercury levels. One serving of fish is around 3 to 5 ounces for adults. That's about the size of a deck of cards. The U.S. Food and Drug Administration recommends smaller servings for children twice a week.
Fresh or water-packed tuna, salmon, trout, mackerel and herring are healthy choices. Stay away from deep-fried fish.
Get nuts. Each week, aim to eat four servings of raw, unsalted nuts. One serving is a quarter of a cup.
Enjoy some dairy. Some good choices are skim or 1% milk, low-fat cottage cheese, and low-fat Greek or plain yogurt. Limit how much cheese you eat. One serving is about the size of four dice. And cut back on higher fat dairy. That includes whole and 2% milk, butter, margarine, and ice cream.
Reduce red and processed meat. Eat more fish, poultry or beans instead. If you eat meat, make sure it's lean and keep portions small. And before you cook it, first try to remove any fat you can see.
Spice it up. Herbs and spices boost flavor and lessen the need for salt.
The Mediterranean diet has a lot of flexibility, so you can make it a delicious and nutritious way to eat. Follow this eating pattern long-term to get the most of out of it.
Good info. I had bypass surgery several years ago and recently had a stent placed. My cardiologist wants me to take a baby aspirin and Plavix every day for at least a year. After the one year I plan to ask him about stopping the aspirin every day. I'm already having stomach problems from the aspirin, but the doctor said it would be high risk to stop it. I agree you shouldn't take it for primary prevention.
So glad I saw this!!!! I’m 74 and just saw a cardiologist today because of some issues with my heart. I was going to start taking a baby aspirin tomorrow because everyone is telling me to take one a day. I eat fairly healthy but I am determined to try harder….we are what we eat! Thank you doctor, you’re the BEST! ❤
Major mistake. It you have certain heart issues and your cardiologist recommends baby aspirin take it or you may be on your way to taking the blood thinner warfarin if your heart condition worsens. You did not listen to this video properly.
Doc you did not list all of the secondary conditions such as congestive heart failure which every cardiologist recommends baby aspirin.
Thanks everyone for your replies! All your comments are so helpful.
Look into the benefits of taking a cayenne pepper capsule everyday in lieu of the aspirin.
I don't think you got the message 😢
Dr. Ken, at almost 70 years old, I have been taking a daily 81mg aspirin for about 30 years. However, I take it because of what was finally determined to be a family inherited genetic disorder called "Factor V Leiden thrombophilia". When my sister was diagnosed after a CVA resulting from a blockage, she told as many people in the family to go be tested as she could. I know you are not a cardiologist, a neurologist or hemotologist, but Factor V Leiden thrombophilia is a relatively unknown issue until it hits someone within a family. Just my two cents. Keep up the GREAT work!
BTW, thanks to your informational and motivating videos, I am now down over 140 pounds, no longer hypertensive, my BP stays around 128/68, Pulse of 60, I am no longer diagnosed as diabetic (two years with A1c less than 5.3), and my "COPD" has become allergic asthma. Just the monthly savings in prescriptions alone allows me to continue my carnivore diet! Thank you again!
Thank you. My fiance 70 year old fiance had a heart attack due to afib. Her arteries were clear. The cardiologist recommended blood thinners and she was bleeding from her mouth and nose. Then he recommended baby aspirin. He had to recommend as per AMA. God help us from allopathic medicine
I’m glad the doctor brought out the stent issue. I’m 65 years old and I don’t take aspirin. Honestly I’m in good shape my labs are good! My primary care doctor, and I were discussing this aspirin issue a while back! She told me of another patient who had stents inserted several years before. Was put on plavix and aspirin! For some reason, this patient stopped taking either one! My doctor told me it took about six months, the stent collapsed, and the patient never made it to the hospital!
Do research.
When anyone tries to use fear to control you, it's usually because they can't use facts.
Finally somebody's finally addressing this problem! Thank you for the great video😊
The ordination in Sweden is 75mg of Aspirin until one year after a heart attack. They also recommend stopping after one year. Preventive ordination is disrecommended. My uncle is a medical doctor and has taken it since in his 50ies and he is 98 now!

My mom had a stroke two months after getting Covid and it was related. The doc said she should only take baby aspirin 3-4x a week short term.
covid was an excuse to shut the world down.🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬
Did you end up still taking the baby aspirin daily?
you make a lot of sense with all your videos, i had a triple by pass in 2020 and instead of taking blood thinners my cardiologist has me on a baby aspirin a day, yes i bleed easier etc. something you should be emphatic about is the people with so little common sense they only pay attention to the phrase, don't take this. some of the comments i see are scary, reminds me of the problems i have when trying to teach people how to do complicated chores, most skip 90% of instructions and turn a deaf ear to how dangerous it is to now follow instructions to the letter. it's hard to live in this new world after living so long in the real world, it's like ignorance prevailed over education about 40yrs ago.

You never should take those two things together, ever, thins the blood too much.

No problems at all, year after year. Read the authoritative book on Aspirin, it more of a positive than a negative.

In your case, please stay on the aspirin.

I'm 37. I was diagnosed with May Thurners Syndrome in April, and put on a daily baby aspirin. My left iliac vein is compressed down to 4mm, and my Doctor wants to place a stent. Now I'm a little nervous lol. Also, I weighed 364lbs in 2017, and was told I couldn't lose weight without surgery. I started keto. I am now 150lbs. I'm carnivore now, and have put my autoimmune issues into remission (most of the time unless I get super stressed), and feel so much better. I was thankful to be diagnosed with MTS, instead of being called crazy lol, but sad that this is something carnivore can't fix. Carnivore has fixed everything else for me!

Believe it or not I had been taking a full aspirin (325mg) daily from 1986 until about 2015 on the recommendation of a man who had been taking them for years and the reading I did that claimed that it reduced certain types of cancers. I was in the military, lifted daily and ran everything including marathons and ultras. Of course once I turned 60 (67 now) all the bad eating and bodily punishment I did for years started haunting me, from ankle surgeries for missing tendons and ankle replacement all the way to AFIB (under control after two cardio versions and an ablation). Multaq is now my best friend as well as Eliquis. I like to think that the unbridled consumption of trillions of carbs contributed to all the minor arthritis I’m experiencing now in every joint, a tale of warning of the younger ones who are beating their bodies up physically and nutritionally.
And Eliquis is taking me to the poor house. 😱 ( taking for AFIB)
Please consider fasting followed by Keto or Carnivore and intermittent fasting. It will reverse type 2 diabetes, which in turn will cause weight reduction, fatty liver reversal, a good number of heart issues, and reduce the chance of or even reverse some cancers. It's the way we evolved to eat. Historically we didn't eat and snack 5 and 6 times a day, and carbs are NOT an essential part of your diet. Avoid fast food, pre prepared foods, carbs and seed oils and life will start to be much less painful, and hopefully longer.
@@Becky_One You might look at some of the Canadian pharmacies for cheaper Eliquis or switch over to Xarelto?
From the British Journal of Cancer - Aspirin inhibits the enzyme cyclooxygenase (Cox), and there is a significant body of epidemiological evidence demonstrating that regular aspirin use is associated with a decreased incidence of developing cancer.
I had a stroke my brain scan shows some atherosclerosis not good. I am 61 and am now on 325 mg of aspirin. Not to sure if I would take a chance of stopping. So far I am doing ok on it. But knowing this I will definitely keep an eye on it. My nurosurgeon put me on it and assured me it was save. What's a person to do.
Yep, I’m one of those people who believed that a baby aspirin would prevent a heart attack, some thing I heard, and read many years ago. On and of I would do this therapy, but not consistently, thank goodness. I’m one of those people who have heart palpitations, and yet they can find nothing seriously wrong, test after test, monitors, etc. But as of today listening to Dr. Berry, I’m not taking another baby aspirin.
Google Dr Berry heart palpitations, it could be a mineral deficiency.

Thank you for this vital info concerning baby aspirin if you over 70 if you never had mentioned issues
Thank you! I am looking forward to the coming video you mentioned about the secondary prevention
Been taking a baby aspirin daily for 11 years for the prevention of cancer. The research is solid with that reduction in risk, as much as 50% for colon cancer specifically, but very few doctors even know about it or talk about it.
From my understanding, studies on humans can never determine true risks because they can't be done to strict standards. Cigarette smoking is an exception because the numbers are extremely high for negative health outcomes of smokers vs non-smokers. But other studies on the subject of food and other things are manipulated to produce certain results. Professor Bart Kay has discussed the subject.

I have had two heart attacks. They put a stent in , put me on baby aspirin and blood thinners. Two years later had another heart attack. The place they put the stent in filled up with my own tissue so they are to put another stent in the same place. Then about a year later my iron went down to 6 . I understand under 5 you need transfusions. I was also having black diarrhea for a long time every couple of weeks. So I was told that is old blood. I was bleeding intermally somewhere. I have had ct scans and scopes etc. They found nothing. I had immediately went off the blood thinners but still kept taking the baby aspirin. Cardiologist said I needed to take it for life. Trying to get my iron up with ferritin. But it keeps coming back down. Then I started researching baby apspirin and found out it can cause bleeds every where in your body. So I had a bleed somewhere intestinally but they couldn't find it. Still haven't. On my own I stopped taking the baby aspirin and haven't had the black diarrhea since. I will be getting my iron checked this month so I am hoping it is back up. Also started carnivore 2 weeks ago. I AM VERY WORRIED about having another heart attack from a blood clot forming in the artery as I know from research that is soft plack comes through the etherderal layer of the artery , as soon as it reaches your blood it will form a clot and that is what kills you. I feel like I am dammned if I do and dammed if I don't. SO I REALLY NEED TO HEAR WHAT YOU HAVE TO SAY ABOUT BABY ASPIRIN AND STENTS.
I can never take baby aspirin . Once i found out i was diabetic my dr told me I would have to start taking it daily. So i did. Few years later i kept getting major stomach pains. I found out on the news how people had to stop taking aspirin due to stomach issues. Well ding ding, that was a wake up call for me. I stopped taking it to see if the pains would stop. Well few months later i had my drs appointment and i told her how i stopped taking the aspirin and why. She asked me what happened after. I said the pains stopped. She told me i dont have to take it.
Dr. Ken, this video got my attention so here’s the quick and dirty on my situation:
I’m turning 62 next month. I’ve never had a heart attack, no stints, no bypass surgery. I don’t smoke (quit over 20 years ago), drink only in moderation, and exercise regularly. I’m not Mr. Health Nut when it comes to eating habits, but I stay away from fast food and junk foods most of the time. I’m 5’7” and around 225 lbs.; could stand to lose weight, definitely, but I also do a lot of pushups so there’s more upper body mass than those numbers would suggest.
However, back in 2007, sixteen years ago this very month, I had a blood clot that put me in emergency. That I forced myself to eat a yogurt and take a regular aspirin when I staggered home from night shift could very well have saved my life. Since then I’ve been on a daily baby aspirin regimen.
I would add that in terms of family history, my mom’s side generally didn’t have heart issues, but my dad’s side definitely had heart attacks and high blood pressure. Nowadays for me BP tends to be around 130/80 and heart rate is in the 65-70 range.
What say you? Thanks in advance for your response.
Thank Dr. Berry, for this thorough review of the New Guidelines for baby aspirin. You are a real Mensch (stand up guy)!
PS: I do follow your videos and appreciate them. I know you have helped me become healthier, over these last two years, and want you to know this!

Why I admire and respect you for your passionate delivery, my father is 94 and I've been giving him 81mg. aspirin pills (Ecotrin and other generics provided by US Air Force pharmacies) for at least the past 12 years. I don't doubt that aspirin has the many effects you say, knowing how it affects my hearing if I happen to take too much during a toothache. He also takes Plavix, so I'm not 100% sure he should be taking aspirin too, but his HEART doctors suggested he take the aspirin too. Yes, he does bleed a little bit more because of the Plavix and aspirin, but I think a little more blood and a lot less heart attack goes a long way to giving us a little peace of mind. 😉I know this is anecdotal, but so are many of the responses below on the other side of the coin. Empirical evidence goes a long way. Perhaps some links to peer-reviewed papers or books? Thanks. Peace!
And from Cardiff they have studies linking baby aspirin to helping with cancer. (Elwood)
Yes. especially with colon cancer
I’m looking forward to the video you make for secondary prevention. Mom had a heart stent in the 2000s and was on Plavix but now just baby aspirin. The main issue I see is that she has trouble bruising often whenever bumping into things and she also bleeds very easily, and for a longer time.
And when you think about it, it is after the jab
I was on Plavix for 8 months after heart stents late last year. The bruises were horrible. So far, the many bruises I had in June have gone away, but I’m still on 81 mg aspirin every day. I take it with my coffee, bacon and eggs each morning, so I’m hoping the food helps it not do too much damage and just enough good to keep the stents from getting clots. Praying for your mom.
I'd rather some bruises and have the blood flowing through my coronary arteries...
@@brylynt53 ask your cardiologist about Xarelto 2.5 , major game changer for me
Plavix is a drug from h*ll. Doc reccomended it, but I passed. I had OHS in '17, and an endocarotidectomy a year ago, so baby aspirin, yes. not every day, though. Garlic, yes Plavix, no thank you. I am 77 and in good health. I also had a mild stroke before the roto rooter job.. Big pharma is a ruthless money grabbing monster and they don't want us to get healthy
Thanks for getting the word out on these changed guidelines.
I’m 55 yrs old and after an angiogram they discovered 30% blockage in my left coronary artery. My cardiologist put me on a baby Asprin 6 months ago as a result of those findings. My family physician agrees with my cardiologist. With all do respect, I will do what my heart doctor tells me to do, not some RUclips video
Dr. Berry is a real doctor too.
Well, I did what I was told after my Heart attack at 52 in January. Now I have been in the Hospital two weeks in a row with serious Tachycardia. I was told they dont know what causes it. Well, after a few days of searching I have realized it has been caused by my aspirin suddenly. Dr's go to school to learn from others who learned how to medicate. Never do they diagnose the cause instead of the symptom. We do not have heart disease because we lack salicylates (aspirin).
You doctor is just reading from the same playbook as the cardiologist. Aspirin reduces the incidence of clotting. and can be helpful in some cases. BUT it encourages bleeding. I had to give up after a string of nosebleeds. You also have to ask yourself - am I bleeding internally? Maybe your gut maybe your arteries.
My hubby kept taking that aspirin until he had a massive nose bleed that the emergency room could hardly stop. He bled for nearly 3 hours. The ENT we saw the next day said quit taking that aspirin!
😯
The emergency room doctor used afrin to stop my uncle's nose bleeds. They suggested that he keep a bottle with him for when it happens.
Afrin rocks-it works. It might be hard to get it up to where the bleed is coming from, but it WILL stop a nose bleed.
This is an EXTREMELY rare incident
I donate plasma and took a daily half aspirin for slippery platelets. I stopped years ago, minimum intervention my current ethos. 💪🙏
I have been taking 325 mg aspirin for 24 years now with now side effects. That is 4 times a baby aspirin. I have always taken 3 or 4 aspirin with coffee for headaches. I am 70 now. The aspirin doesn't bother my stomach unless it is empty. I think of aspirin as my friend. I avoid ibuprofen and Tylenol. I think a lot depend on the person. I am a big male 70 years old.
My Dr. is awesome. She's smart and cares about my health. She says to take it so I will.
You are correct. Do not pay attention to this social media charlatans.
Good info. My nonagenarian aunty passed last year after the fall which led to blood flooding the brain inside due to aspirin intakes.
I agree with you 100% . Years ago I ware told to take baby aspirin and I did . Then my arms and legs has bruises everywhere so I stopped. Not to mention little blood vessels in my fingers would just pop and we’re very painful. Thank you Dr. Barry for letting everyone know this very important information so that they don’t have to find out the hard way the way I did.❤
Thank you for this video and for truly caring so much about everyone! Dr. Berry, would you consider doing a video on the difference (and/or similarity) between a true blood clot and platelet aggregation. Thank you.
My husband is on it and he gets horrible bruises. He has a heart condition and the cardiologist put him on it
Good luck to your mom! Hope she gets better really soon! Sometimes a person don't know who to listen too. May god be with u and your mom!!
Thank You for educating me. I’m 73 years young.
Thank you Doctor Berry .
Very informative.
I am over 60 years of age and have been taking half an Aspirin a day as a preventive measure for many years. I do not have any known heart condition. I will cease taking half an Aspirin a day.
Thank you.
I just wish he would have said if we just stop immediately or taper off?
You don’t want to stop cold turkey. That can lead to a stroke or heart attack. Please don’t.
I am 62 years old. I had bovine mitral valve replacement in October 2021. I had no symptoms prior (except for slight prolapse) and am very healthy (other than that apparently). I was instructed to take a baby aspirin daily to keep clots from forming on the valve. I asked him about this my 1 year checkin and he said that taking it after mitral valve replacement is different than to avoid heart attack. What say you :) Thank you.
I am in the same boat with the valves. Was told to take baby aspirin also. I have been taking one for years. My Dr. was very well known so I think I'll stick with his advice! Thanks for you inpit Cindyhenry!
Did you get a cow valve or a bull valve?
Thanks Dr Ken, I have been taking a baby aspirin for over 20 years and at 73 I will stop. Also I was in the hospital for a week a couple of years ago due to internal bleeding due to ischemic colitis. FYI I started keto 3 months ago and have been able to stop 3 of my BP meds I was taking twice a day, stopped livalo & ezetimibe, glyburide, nexium, and singular. So now I am down to ranolazine and lisinopril twice a day. Also as a T2D my fasting BS is now ranging between 85-95.
That's great progress! Keep going :)
I'm on 50 mg losartan potassium once a day quit drinking and smoking 8/6/23 how do I ween myself off of this BP MED ?
@@heisenberg8346 someone who took BP med said when she started experiencing fainting from low blood pressure, her doctor took her off. Just to be clear, I'm **NOT** giving advice, but sharing info that magnesium naturally lowers blood pressure (as an adult, you can look into this further if you choose and make a decision after that). I think Dr. Berry has said that consuming high carb is one of the biggest causes of high blood pressure, so reducing carbs would be good. Great job stopping smoking and drinking, that's a big win.
That tiny pill save my life.
I am a 60 years old woman. In 2010 and 2011 I had numerous TIA's. I have no lingering affects. My neurologist never could find the cause. He put me on 350 mg of aspirin daily instead of Plavix. He said the aspirin would do the same for me and I wouldn't need a prescription to get it. I've been on it ever since. I have occasional tinnitus, but no other issues. This video is slightly alarming. I will check with my doctor about this new information.
Dr Ken actually states that you should consult with your doctors
My great-grandmother had been taking daily aspirin. She went for a walk, fell, and hit her head on a rock. She went home, laid down, and put her feet up, and nearly bled out.
@beastbombshell3589Well, that was really helpful! /s
@beastbombshell3589 You can't blame her for doing as she had been taught to do. It was serious because of the aspirin.
I have been takeing 2 regular aspirin everyday since I was 25 and I am 71.
Any stomach issues? Do you bruised easily?.😮
Most EXCELLENT instructional-video, Dr. Ken! Thanks very much for sharing with the rest of us. And yes, I'll be ringing up my cardio-Doc within the next 30-minutes or so, and as you had advised us all, will be double-checking with him on this.
I have damaged heart valves because of childhood illnesses and so I am interested in what I can do to help myself. When this baby aspirin issue came into my life I didn't have any guidance from the doctors. I have also had trouble with the "ulcer bug " that made me anemic and at times would make my stomach bleed. So the doctors couldn't decide if I should take the aspirin or not! I told them that I wouldn't because the risk of a bleeding ulcer was something I had to deal with not them! After seeing this video I am so glad that I didn't start the aspirin and my instincts were spot on!! 😊
I take one three times a week, since heart attack in 2006.
I think thats the key not taking it ever day like most people
I can't wait to see your video for people who have had bypass surgeries. I have been on keto for the last 2 years, dropped 70 pounds, and been on Carnivore for the last 2 weeks. (just started) On my next cardiologist visit, I am going to set up scans to find where I am at on the risk scale now to reassess my meds. He said already it looks like I have reduced my arterial plaque and that was 6 months ago. He is very interested in watching my keto journey. We will see what he says when he finds out I have now moved to carnivore. :-)
How did you reduce your plague build-up in the arteries
With diet?
@@troykrepps1962 Going strict keto, exercising, and taking 1000 mg of krill oil caplets each day. My cardiologist also added strong vitamin D twice a week. He will be setting me up for a new calcium score test later this year, but he is seeing improvement through the ultrasound scan he had done. Granted there is a long way to go, but I am moving in the right direction. I would rather get slower better than slowly worse for sure. At 46, I went to the hospital almost dead. 2 heart surgeries later (quad bypass) and more recently learning about keto, and now carnivore, I hope to get some years back at the end. I just turned 59 a couple of weeks ago and feel as good as when in my earlier 40's for the most part.
The calcium score may not be a lot better, but I have been off statins for the last 3 years so he is hoping that the larger buildups are shrinking as well as the areas he was able to check with the ultrasound. He said the statins make the calcium harder so it will not go away fast, but he is studying my progress to see how I do with keto. I am staying in
Carnivore for at least one month and will see how it goes. I only seem to miss the veggies a little so that is cool.
@@troykrepps1962 this person won't answer
Please answer how you fixed your plaque
Look to recent extensive study by Caldwell University on cancer prevention
@@danieltemple3144 Yes, I saw that as well!
At 63, I was prescribed low dose aspirin as a prophylactic by my doc for about two years. Eventually ended up in the Emergency Room 4 times in one week for episodes of severe abdominal pain and nausea. They could not figure out why I was having these attacks. Eventually got in to a gastroenterologist that figured out it was ulcers from the aspirin. Stopped taking it and now back to normal. Horrible experience I hope never to repeat. So be very careful taking this stuff.
You need to take the enteric coated stuff so it doesn't start breaking down until it's in the duodenum.
I was taking 10 pills a day one of those being a baby aspirin. I have taken myself off of most of my pills. I did this after seeing my last bloodwork. I am now taking 3 pills a day and about to go off of 2 of those. The last pill I have to take because I no longer have a thyroid and it is needed. My diabetic doctor is trying to get me to take my cholesterol pills and my pre diabetic pills. I have dropped 70 pounds and he didn’t even look at my blood work before he said this. I am completely carnivore. I am waiting for the last results of my blood work to come in.
i guess i will stop taking aspirin, just as soon as i use up the baby aspirin that i already have....which is a lot. like over a year's worth
Brilliance as usual Ken. So clear, so precise and informative. I am looking forward to your follow up video for those who are CABG veterans.
As a 71-year-old with a stent and a history of heart attacks, I take a baby aspirin and Ramipril daily for "secondary" protection. So I am looking out for your follow-up video dealing with secondary protection
You and me both...!!!
@@setdown2 I'm assuming that the advice will be to carry on taking the medication (in my case baby aspirin & Ramipril). In an ideal scenario, I would prefer not to take medication, however, if it's protecting my stent and preventing another clot then I'm continuing with the drugs
They keep changing the rules!@@banditbaker1675
Stents have been reported to be merely the level of help...already found in aspirin. Beware what they push on you. $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$
Same age, one stent snd ramipril but, Somewhere along the way the narrative got changed. This is why I started taking low dose aspirin:
“Low-dose aspirin, 81 milligrams a day in the United States, prevents mortality and metastasis from cancer,” says Vanderbilt’s John Oates, M.D., who helped define the molecular basis for aspirin’s effects. Metastasis is the spread of cancer to other parts of the body.
“This is most striking in adenocarcinomas (tumors arising from glandular tissue), particularly the colon and the lung, which are some of the most malignant and difficult to treat,” says Oates, the Thomas F. Frist Professor of Medicine. “The studies are definitive because they are controlled clinical trials.”
Not to prevent heart attacks…
If they're streaming CNN at the Doctor's office...run! Love & respect yourself first & foremost.
Got that rite.. they are evil
hahahah
😂
And if they are streaming the Trump channel (FOX) find another doctor fast!
@@steve83333 Don't be an effeminate beta fruitcup boy. We are saturated enough. Just move on..move along.
I have been taking 325mg tablet daily for at least 35 years. No issues and excellent health. Will continue.
50yrs old Been taking baby apsrin for years .blood panel came perfectly normal. Had multiple deep cuts with extreme bleeding healed up finely. I'll take my chances.
Remember coffee? Good bad good bad good bad. Same “ studies “
People who haven’t had a heat attack but dropped dead wish they took it, like me cousin that dropped dead at 56 last week. My father died at 63 from second heart attack in 77 . No aspirin regimen was prescribed, I wish it was. I’m not a doctor but 68 I’m taking one at least 3 days a week, till the next study that says we should. Coffee anyone?
@@tomdemeo2708 Amen … This is my second comment .. but I cannot help myself !!
Just read through other commenters texts , and consistently the observations ( fully understanding that my comments Are anecdotal !) of serious bleeding allegedly from use of aspirin as a preventive … ALL involve daily use of 325 mg and NONE mention enteric coated every other day Baby aspirin !
The Stomach and colonic “bleeds “ certainly could ( and likely did involve other co factors .. such as acid reflux , chronic IBS secondary to bacterial and fungal GI infections .. excess alcohol intake .. con - commitment use of NSAIDS ., etc ..
81 mg of aspirin ( enteric coated ) every other day for the last 52 years has kept this 78 year old Surgeon in the OR , still helping patients and very very likely will facilitate my still teaching young medical minds “ under construction “ for another 10 years or more .. God willing !!
If you bleed after shaving or get bruising after working out .. skip the enteric coated
baby aspirin for 3-4 days ( to allow your platelets to “recover” and then try a baby aspirin every third day ( as usual .. seek the advice of “ your Doctor “ .. but WE All know that is of rapidly diminishing value ! )
