Researchers at the University of California, San Diego tried out three different types of aspirin with volunteer research subjects. The types of aspirin studied included regular aspirin swallowed whole, regular aspirin chewed and swallowed, and chewable aspirin chewed and swallowed.

Measurements of the blood levels of aspirin revealed which aspirin type provided the highest aspirin levels in the body.

The winner: chewable aspirin!

The chewable aspirin not only showed greater absorption, but it was also more rapid.
