Who needs Viagra? Study shows wine may protect men against impotence
I am not making this … up.
A study in Australia suggests that wine may protect men against impotence, according to Decanter.com.
Now if I’m reading the story correctly, the “benefit” may not be limited to wine, since the effect appears to be linked to alcohol consumption and not specifically to wine consumption. (This story from NewScientist.com headlined “Alcohol stops men being a flop in bed” seems to corroborate the notion that this is not a wine-only benefit.) So presumably, beer drinkers and spirits enthusiasts may derive the same benefit as wine drinkers — as long as they do not drink to excess.
“It would be socially irresponsible to say that even a binge drinker can get some benefits,” one of the study’s authors told Decanter.
