enteric-coated aspirin each morning


The wisdom now is that you should take it in the evening.

The Wall Street Journal had an article on the things you can do to
extend your life, and beside each was the number of months it ought to
add. The one I liked best was to drink a four-ounce glass of wine with
dinner: four months!

I boasted to my daughter that I was now a wine drinker, and that it
would extend my life by four months. She said: "Yeah, but it will be
in the winter."

(I'm serious about taking the aspirin in the evening. It was on the
list, though I think it was only good for a month or two of longevity.
In any event, I switched. I'm not superstitious--knock on wood!--but
why take chances?)

all the best -- Dan Ford
