A GLASS of red wine a day keeps the reproductive specialist away? The benefits of red wine have been in the public eye before, but now a new study by American and Polish researchers is claiming that a daily dose of resveratrol - a natural compound found in red wine - can boost women’s fertility.
The study purports that resveratrol does this by lowering steroid hormone levels in women who suffer from polycystic ovary syndrome.
Maybe that explains why so many babies are conceived after a night out on the wines?
EVER think you'd hear a firsthand account from someone who has dined on human flesh?
One adventurous Aussie eater with a desire to taste every animal possible decided human was not off limits.
In a convenient twist this Melbourne man happened to have a close friend who was fascinated by body modification and wanted to sacrifice one of his fingers to "fulfil his body image".
The pair used a cigar cutter to amputate the finger, before the appendage was cooked up at a celebratory barbecue.
He says the meat was very sweet, rich and chewy with a "distinctive taste".
The bizarre dietary experience is the subject of an intriguing podcast created by Bonnie Tai, one of our colleagues at Pharmacy Daily - CLICK HERE to listen.
