Saw this yesterday and didn't give it much attention. Now it seems to be spreading. Hopefully the Food Babe will start a campaign to put a stop to these reckless brewers.

This paper is decades old, and controversial at best. There's been no compelling evidence that I've seen in the meantime. Just sayin'.

http://press.endocrine.org/doi/pdf/10.1210/jcem.84.6.5887

But yeah. Can confirm.

ETA: If you follow this particular clickbait all the way down, you get a 2012 paper self-surveying the sex lives of 109 Spanish alcoholics in rehab. Good stuff. Unfortunately I can't find the full text for free.

The women working in the hop fields in Flanders have always been known to have a size extra, so why not? ::)

Yeah, she likely will. That or we all start wearing a Manzier or a Bro.   ;)

Yup. A reference to a Herbalist but no source(s) or actual facts cited except in a link to another article referring to a10t2's Spanish alcoholic study. But that was for "droop"... something I wouldn't know about...

If it's spreading, I think they make supports that will lift it and bring it forward.

I'm sitting here right now with the Victoria's Secret catalog--Oh wait--that has nothing to do with this article; I do that every month. Oh well, maybe this time I'll order something from it. ;D
