The benefits of college binge drinking?

No joke, 17 beers a day is apparently the key to the prevention of prostate cancer?

A main ingredient in beer may help prevent prostate cancer and enlargement, according to a new study. But researchers say don’t rush out to stock the refrigerator because the ingredient is present in such small amounts that a person would have to drink more than 17 beers to benefit.

There’s nothing like opening the browser to find some news supporting, or should I say “promoting”, your daily habitual activities. 17 beers a day?! While the article may not necessarily be explaining the whole 17 beer thing as an alternative means to stay healthy, I have a feeling that there are individuals out there that will justify their actions more so after reading this one. So you can squash the chances of prostate cancer? What about liver cancer now?

    I’d rather have liver cancer when I’m drunk, over prostate cancer while I’m sober. :P
