Most people believe aspirin “unclogs” arteries by removing plaque.
That is not how it actually works.

In this video, Dr. Alan Mandell explains the real physiology behind aspirin and heart protection, including how aspirin affects platelets, blood clot formation, and arterial blood flow. While aspirin does not dissolve cholesterol plaque or clean arteries, it plays a critical role in preventing dangerous clots from forming on top of existing plaque, which is what triggers most heart attacks and strokes.

You will learn how aspirin inhibits platelet aggregation by blocking thromboxane production, why low dose aspirin is commonly used for secondary prevention, and who should and should not consider aspirin therapy. We also discuss updated medical guidelines, bleeding risks, and why aspirin recommendations are no longer one size fits all.

This video also explains why chewing aspirin during a suspected heart attack can be lifesaving, how timing matters, and the difference between plaque buildup and sudden arterial blockage.

As always, decisions about aspirin use should be personalized and discussed with your healthcare provider.
