    Mad Science

    Last summer researchers told us about The Exercise Pill (TheExercisePill.com), a drug (called AICAR) developed by Schering-Plough. It builds muscle and improves stamina while you sleep or just sit. It’s still being tested, but the results in mice are astounding. Now we have a second major medical breakthrough – discovery of good fat (brown fat) in adults (BrownFatWeightLoss.com). What a great world!
