"Researchers at Oregon State University discovered that doses of xanthohumol, a flavonoid found in hops, improved memory and thinking in a lucky group of mice.
Hops are used to make beer. Will drinking beer therefore make you smarter?
... it would require drinking 2,000 liters of beer a day (or 5,636 bottles of beer) to ingest the amount of xanthohumol used in the study."
The answer seems to be a resounding yes.
Can't believe the physical difference in Sao from last year to this year.
Donny must've worked him hard.
Time to open up another bottle of home brew then......Nice! I think I'll risk another brain cell right now!!
Agree totally. I didn't think It was him during warm up. He was rather more portly last time he played firsts.
Especially when the forwards were getting steamrolled.There are a few problems with Geoff Toovey's coaching . . . but the worst of them is his non-use of the bench. The 2nd worst is willingness to experiment with team selections. Jake T had earnt his bench spot long ago.
