After years of reading about how red wine protects against cancer, beer protects against cancer, green tea protects against cancer, potato juice protects against cancer, WD40 protects against cancer, we finally get serious:
Single malt whisky 'can protect you from cancer', conference told. "Single malt whisky can beat the threat of cancer, thanks to high levels of a powerful antioxidant that kills cancer cells ... according to research, single malt whisky contains more ellagic acid [whatever that is] than red wine ..."
However, Lesley Walker of Cancer Research UK was dubious. "Ellagic acid ... can also be found in soft fruits."
Peel me a grape, an ear of barley, AND a cask!
