NY Times article:

"...
An ordinary lab mouse will run about one kilometer -
five-eights of a mile - on a treadmill before collapsing from
exhaustion.
But mice given resveratrol, a minor component of red wine and
other foods, run twice as far.

Floyd Landis would say yes.
That would be pretty cool if scientists did determine one day that
having 1 beer can improve running/exercising performance.

thanks rick--notice the quantities the mice consumed--the article said
that NO ONE could drink that much wine to reach those levels. Well,
I'm sure that someone out there will give it a try.
Also note that the two studies were written by doctors with a financial
interest in the outcome.

Oh, come on. Her response was hilarious. Not every remark on this
forum needs be of serious nature.

I am hoping scientists would breed mice that would chew the
fingers off of irrelevant trolls. They'd make a fortune!

So what's the point?
Cars powered by drunken mice on exercise wheels?
