Drink up!...

Shots of tequila aren't just good for kicking the party up a notch.New research suggests tequila can also help boost bone health. Scientists in Mexico have discovered a substance in the tequila plant that helps boost the absorption of calcium.

The blue variety of the Agave tequilana plant also helps improve magnesium absorption - both are essential compounds for healthy bones.

"The consumption of fructans contained in the agave [plant],in collaboration with adequate intestinal micriobiota, promotes the formation of new bone, even with the presence of osteoporosis," said Dr. Mercedes Lopez of the Center for Research and Advanced Studies in Mexico in a Science Daily report.

Now I'm beginning to wonder if drinking a bottle of Patron a day is better than drinking a glass of milk a day. If it is then I'm good.
