4. Helps With Melanoma

Skin cancer is one of the most common diseases in the world. The number of cases of skin cancer in the USA has increased in recent years. Melanoma is the most dangerous kind of skin cancer. A study that lasted over 12 years found that women who take aspirin regularly may decrease the risk of melanoma. In these tests, the aspirin activated tumor-suppressant genes and promoted cell death. The longer individuals used aspirin, the lower the risk. Doctors do not recommend that everyone start taking aspirin and lay in the sun on a hot day. Melanoma depends on many other factors such as genetics, skin and sun behaviors.
