Today's Sun reveals the latest in anti-ageing, sperm.
According to the Sun, scientists discovered a substance in sperm that 'slowed the ageing process in mice' and can apparently even reverse it.
So, great news for all of those 40+ mice-women who are feeling low about the wrinkles, not to mention the masses of middle aged wrinkle-laden mice who now have a new lease on life. And they say animal testing is a bad thing.
For many women however, the disappointment of not being half-mouse will be overridden by overwhelming annoyance that it is in fact men who have held this secret and who knows just how long they have known.
This priceless substance can also be found in Soya, Grapefruit and Wheatgerm, which seems a little less remarkable but still good news. As long as it does actually work on humans; nevertheless I am pretty sure there are numerous wrinkle-fearing women that would be more than willing to push out the mice and get testing.
The same substance has also been linked with possible treatments for Alzeimer's Disease which is hopefully ahead of anti-ageing on the list, so unfortunately for many, Olay and L'Oreal will have to do for now.
