The property in Aspirin that helps the heart is the drug
acetylsalicylic acid as it thins the blood taking a lot of pressure off
the heart. Magnesium is good but this not the form useable by the body.

Thank you for that, its just that someone mentioned it on the list
because apparently this is how aspirin got the name for lowering the
incidence of heart attack, but someone on the list said this was
because the sort of aspirin used contained a lot of magnesium which
was probably more the reason of the beneficial properties, than the
actual aspiring. Dee

Hi Dee,
I don't know of any other form of magnesium in pills like aspirin other
than magnesium stearate. this is what Wikipedia says:
Magnesium stearate, also called octadecanoic acid, magnesium salt, is a
white substance which is solid at room temperature. It has the chemical
formula C36H70MgO4. It is a salt containing two equivalents of stearate
(the anion of stearic acid) and one magnesium cation (Mg2+). Magnesium
stearate melts at about 88 °C, is not soluble in water, and is generally
considered safe for human consumption.
