It is important to realise that an acre can be measured in any shape - from rectangles to circles or even hexagons - so long as the total area of land is 43,560 square feet. The most common shape for an acre is 1 furlong by 1 chain, or 660 feet by 66 feet. If you're struggling to get your head around just how big that area actually is, try visualising 60% of a soccer pitch, 75% of an American football field or 16 tennis courts in a 4x4 formation. If that doesn't help, consider a car park containing 150 cars parked in a square.
Introduction. Aspirin is an antiplatelet medicine, which means it reduces the risk of clots forming in your blood. This reduces your risk of having a stroke or heart attack. Normally, when there is a cut or break in a small blood vessel, a blood clot forms to plug the hole until the blood vessel heals.
People at high risk of heart attack should take a daily low-dose of aspirin (if told to by their healthcare provider) and that heart attack survivors regularly take low-dose aspirin. You should not start aspirin therapy without first consulting your physician. The risks and benefits of aspirin therapy vary for each person. Because aspirin thins the blood, it can cause several complications. Talk to your doctor if any of these situations apply to you. Most heart attacks and strokes occur when the blood supply to a part of your heart muscle or brain is blocked.
