In an eletter I get came this:
Hops have been shown to provide a more equally balanced inhibition of COX-1 and COX-2, acting primarily on the COX-2 pathway but having some COX-1 effects as well.
Even better news: Other information indicates the COX-1 effects of hops are minimal indeed.
Just one more reason to listen to Benjamin Franklin,
“Beer is proof that God loves us and wants us to be happy.”
🙂
I must disagree with Dr. Franklin on this score. Charlize Theron is proof that God loves us and wants us to be happy. Beer is proof that when we’re sad, God commiserates with us and wants to ease the pain: for example, when Charlize has declined our request for a dinner date.
Sorry, Francis, but Charlize Theron is proof that God loves whomever she may favor, unless that person is me, since I already have the favor of my Wonder Woman.

I just watched a Ben Franklin bio today on TV. Very interesting
If they left out his fondness for beer, they oughta be hops-swatted. 😉
