Red Wine Pill

Remember a few weeks back when I kept posting about how red wine is really, really good for you? Well, the reason scientists have been saying that is because reds contain a chemical called resevratrol that aides weight loss, lowers your risk for lung cancer and a handful of other amazing things. Now, Scientific American is running a story on "red wine in a pill," a medicated version of what you'd typically get out of red wine. Personally, I think that takes all the fun out of it - but it's interesting nonetheless. They're testing it on mice to pretty solid effects so far. I'll keep you posted as more information on the subject comes about.
