Taking aspirin may lower the risk of a stroke, but too much might actually double the risk of stroke, according to a study that followed 79,000 women for 14 yrs. While small doses of aspirin can help prevent ischemic strokes caused by blood clot in the arteries, women who took more than 15 aspirins per week were twice as likely to suffer a hemorrhagic stroke, or bleeding in the brain. - Dominique Andrews
