May b not: While ASA is a good medication for someone who has had a heart attack or stroke or irregularly irregularly heart rhythm, after consultation with a doctor, if you do not have allergy to it. It is not recommend as daily medication for otherwise healthy person just based on family history. Consulting your Provider for details is a better option.
