Another drug I want to take Tom Smith

As many of us know to our horror, if you build up muscles in the gym and healthy eating, something horrible happens when you stop working out.  The muscles go away.  Not only that, as you explore that fascinating territory close to 50, they go away amazingly, terrifyingly quickly.  But wait!  Scientists think they now have a line on a drug that will allow your body to keep the muscles you have, even if you are not working for them! (subscription required for the whole story.) Better living through chemistry, Amen.  Now we just need a drug that will give you the muscles in the first place, I mean, a drug that won’t make your hair fall out (more) and vital parts shrink.
