In the Race

If I want to get somewhere else, I must blog twice as fast as that!
You see, I'm in
the Red Queen's Race...

Do you take a lot of medication?
If it could change you life, would you consider taking three, four, five pills?
Many of you love to exercise...it’s a way of life.
It’s for your body, mind and soul.
But many of you detest it.
What if you could just take a pill so you don’t have to exercise?
One so you could get some of the same benefits from exercising.

"Why spend the time and money on a gym membership when you can just pop a pill? An obvious future bestseller (and possibly the final fulfillment of the American dream), the pill that mimics exercise has been under development for some time.

This pill would be for more than vanity, though, as obesity has grown into one of America’s biggest public health problems. A pill like this could both help the healthcare system and get you the six pack abs you want without having to step foot in a gym."
In the not-so-distant future, these six drugs--already in the works--will change how we live, and even how we die "
