A drug that prolongs life, averts degenerative disease and makes you into a champion athlete has been found in red wine!

Woo Hoo!

But wait... There's gotta be a catch... Hmnn...

[link] Red wine has about 1.5 to 3 milligrams of resveratrol per liter, so a 150-lb person would need to drink 750 to 1,500 bottles of red wine a day to get such a dose.

D'Oh!

Maybe 500 bottles a day, but 750? No way, dude. Heh.

P.S. Burton discovered such a drug years ago, at a rock concert its all natural and comes from the hemp family.
P.S prefers to mix the wondrous curative into brownies and cookies and other delicious baked goods and distribute it at church bake sales and government sponsored faith based initiative gatherings. Because P.S if nothing else respects the right of others to disagree and is eager to interact and share.

Red, red wine...go to my head...

Nothing like remembering a boring old song. Thanks Brent, now please, please write that the same properties have been found in Hershey bars and Cherry Coke.

Dude,

Dude, if the drug occurs naturally in red wine, the obvious solution is to fortify wine with it, so you'd only have to drink a couple of bottles a day. Would save on recycling the bottles. Obvious, dude.
