Just curious to see experiences with incorporating low dose aspirin as you've gotten older to help prevent blood clots and/or heart attack, especially with the use of hormones. I've also considered instead, just consuming low to moderate amounts of alcohol since it has the added benefit of not only making the platelets less sticky like aspirin does, but small amounts of alcohol, such as one beer every night, has been shown to increase hdl cholesterol. While aspirin has the increased risk of gastrointestinal bleeding. Thoughts?
