I think carrying extra ammo is always a good thing. It always seems the main concept for edc is carry the biggest gun with the most ammo that you are comfortable carrying. For most of us that may mean a pocket revolver or a single stack with an extra mag or speed strips if possible.
I do not mean to hijack the thread but I think dakota.Potts makes a very good point about a med-kit.
I am often found with a small backpack that I have a med kit attached to. I used to teach basic first aid, cpr, etc. I also have drilled, worked with and been trained by our local fire dept. I always think it's a good idea to have a med kit on hand. You would be surprised how often you may need it. My decision for me came from a lot of backpacking and experience in first aid related fields.
Most people don't ask me about my backpack and I brought it to work daily and just about everywhere else, especially if I spend the night somewhere. It isn't on me 100% of the time but worst case it is in the car. If anyone asks, I usually say stuff for work. The contents include a medkit, extra mags,water purifier, hydration bladder, and 3 day boat rations along with work related stuff. The medkit contains your basic first aid, Israeli bandages, quick clot, tourniquet, etc.
My brother in law caries a mini medkit that is litterally pretty much a thick wallet.
One thing that I do think is highly beneficial to add to edc that is very easy to wear is a tourniquet. I actually have seen several people having one on them and it seems to be a growing trend in the Leo community at least around me.
Anyways, food for thought.
