Resveratrol
So they did studies...
on mice...
and gave them some of this stuff- and they get thinner and more energetic and live a lot longer - and in theory this activates a system in your body that basically fends off everything from cancer to diabetes
the problem is... the dosage. for mice, it was 22mg/kg per day
so if i bought some suppliments - that were, oh, 50mg of the stuff (with a bunch of other healthy crap my colon would appreciate thrown in for good measure), i'd only need 1500mg a day... so 30 tablets... or half a bottle of pills. That'd run me about $15 a day... which is still expensive, until you factor in the whole 'fending off cancer' thing.
it'll be nice when they start growing the compound with bacteria in vats...

so at 20mg a pill, i'd need more than a bottle of the damned things per day...
yeah - well - assuming they actually show that this IS a wonderdrug, and with it being a non-patentable chemical compound found in nature... i can imagine a day when huge vats of the stuff are being mixed in with my soylent green. mmmmmmm.... people.....
