Aspirin - Is it vitamin or not?
The aspirin exists already more over 100 years. Firms produce aspirin in different forms, but in its nature this is acetyl-salicylic acid. According Garet Morgan researche’s aspirin can be suggested as vitamin S and he points out several reasons for that:
1. The aspirin relieves pain, decreases temperature and removes inflammations. In the recent decades it becomes clear, that aspirin lessen blood coagulation and in small amounts prevents from heart attack.
2. According scientists the regular aspirin assimilation decreases the risk from colon and breast cancer with 20-30%, and twice from stomach and throttle cancer.
3. Aspirin prevents from Alzheimer disease. According Garet Morgan the preventive assimilation of aspirin after 50’s double the person chances to reach 90 years without serous ills.
Is it vitamin or not ?
Usually the substances called vitamins are necessary for metabolic processes. The organism can not produces them in the needed amount and that is why we had to take them by the food. This is the same also for the only aspirin analogs, which naturally consist in plants- so called salicylates. In huge amounts they can be found in the bark of white willow, raspberries and other forest fruits.
Before, human was assimilating more raw fruits, by this way he was receiving enough natural aspirin doses. Due to this he was protected from different diseases, including heart attack.
According Morgan the salicylates:
- are not synthesized in human;
- they are beneficial for the organism;
- can be found in plant food.
All this is typical for the vitamins. That is way the English doctor usually suggests a minimal aspirin doses to be added in juices and other products.
But there are skeptics about this suggestion, because following reasons:
- the acetyl-salicylic food deficiency does not have the same effect like other vitamins deficiency.
- the aspirin has not to be taken from children under 14 years. At some persons aspirin provokes liver and brain function disturbance.
- in 5% from the humans which take aspirin, stomach irritations are observed.
- in very sensitive people, aspirin can provoke asthma, allergic rhinitis and skin eruption.
Such serious sideway effects do not exist at any other vitamins assimilation, but the dosage is with significant meaning and the ideal case for the organism is to be taken aspirin analogs, by plant foods.
