Malt peg keeps cancer away

[chcr]

Isn't this interesting.

"There has been much in the news about the health benefits of antioxidants in red wine. By contrast, very little has been said about malt whisky distillery science. However, research has shown that there are even greater health benefits to people who drink single malt whiskies. Why? Single malt whiskies have more ellagic acid than red wine," The Telegraph quoted Dr Jim Swan, as saying at the EuroMedLab conference in Glasgow, Scotland.

but...

Dr Lesley Walker of Cancer Research UK, however, was not too enthused by Dr. Swan's views, saying that she was "very concerned" abouth whisky being promoted as a cancer prevention agent without verifiable data to support the claim.

Problem with me is when I drink I feel like smoking, so I guess it completely nullifies any claims I make that I drink to prevent cancer.

Damn.

Guess I'm screwed.

As kids, we used to get malt extract spooned into us every morning, along with cod liver oil. That was our "daily vitamins".
