Yet Another Reason to Drink

Tonight on 60 Minutes there was yet another story on the benefits of drinking red wine; they found the part of red wiine, resveratrol, that extends life in mice. This doesn't necessarily mean it will work in humans.

They also said a calorie-restricted can also lead to a longer life. They showed a group of people who have made a lifestyle out of a calorie-restricted diet. They were eating baby food.

So instead of dying of diabetes and heart disease they will probably die of boredom instead.

I'll stick with the red wine and open that bottle of Syrah tonight.
