Great minds think alike! As I was scrolling down the page, I read this headline and thought to myself, "of course, liquor!" I'll take red wine over herbal supplements any day.
A shot of Niquol works for me everytime (10% alcohol content).
That is the most non-News "research" I've seen in ages.
Errrgghhhh....
I hate to say it but when I see silly research like this, and consider the obvious problems in the world and the fact that it makes sense to self-medicate, I get anxeity and lose sleep!
