Wine extract keeps fat mice healthy
Check it out everyone! Let's go drinking.
"Obese mice on a high-fat diet got the benefits of being thin — living healthier, longer lives — without the pain of dieting when they consumed huge doses of red wine extract, according to a landmark new study."
"Sirtris Pharmaceuticals is working on a high-dose resveratrol pill."
"Such supplements are available at health food stores and on-line, but not at dose levels equivalent to what the mice in the experiment got — roughly equal to 100 bottles of wine a day in humans."
