More is Less

Old-School Aspirin   (Photo by Nikolay Komarov)
 

Some say less is more, and others say more is less.  Both are more or less correct.

On the more-ingredients/less-disease side of the spectrum, a new polypill supposedly cuts cardiovascular risks by as much as 40%.  This chock-full wonder drug combines “cholesterol and blood pressure” meds with “a statin,” and allegedly works even better when taken with aspirin.

Some might balk at such a pre-mix of ingredients.  They might prefer to choose meds individually: perhaps to live simply in order to simply live.
