Many people take low-dose acetylsalicylic acid (also known as ASA or Aspirin^TM a registered trademark) to help prevent heart disease, but did you know it can also fight colon cancer?

In those who've had precancerous colorectal polyps removed, ASA can reduce the risk that those polyps will recur.

The drug could help increase their chances of survival by up to 30 per cent.
