Pain Reliever Facts

It is estimated that over 40,000 Americans each year have to be hospitalized due to the side effects of these "NSAIDS" (non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs). That's correct, aspirin, acetaminophen, Tylenol, Excedrin, Advil, and Nuprin.

In many of these cases, the suggested dose of the pain reliever has caused severe intestinal bleeding. In fact, clinical researchers tell us Ibuprophen causes you to bleed a teaspoon of blood everytime you take one.

Over 6,000 Americans actually die every year from NSAID- related complications,from taking pain relievers.

If you take any of these NSAID's before going to bed, you will likely cut your body's production of melatonin, a hormone that helps you sleep, by 75%.
