*North Korea has developed a “super drink” that, it says, can multiply brain cells and stop skin ageing.
The secretive state’s official news agency, KCNA, says the drink contains 60 kinds of “microelements” extracted from more than 30 species of plants. *
Story fromBBC.
They’re only just now getting Mountain Dew?
They have 30 different kinds of plants left in N. Korea? Wow:)
First Fusion, then this, they only need the cure for common cold now and the world will be theirs!, WAKE UP!
I, for one, welcome our new underfed Overlords
Ya know, when cells start multiplying in people’s brains usually they call it brain cancer.
And all these “microelements” just sounds like fancy talk for “dirt” but that’s just me and my opinion. 
It also removes all of your “acid effete matters”, whatever those are.
I’m guessing they’re similar to free radicals, but…pansier?
<obligatory Idiocracy drop> And that’s why plants crave it. </oid>
MICROELEMENTS WOW I’m sold
So, they’re like regular elements, just…smaller, right?
Here is North Korea’s News Agency’s original English report:
Shoot.
They seem to avoid allowing links to the stories directly. Anyone know how to get around it?
I was going to post something mildly funny, but it has nothing on the above posts

They have trade in North Korea?
Looks like if I right-click the link in Firefox and select Copy Link Location I can get the link to the specific article - let’s see if that worked.
It’s called beer. The Egyptians developed it 5,000 years ago.
More than 30 different plants? Let’s see: some 2-row barley, 4-row barley, a little wheat, maybe some rye or triticale, 3 varieties of bittering hops, 3 varieties of aromatic hops, some Irish moss…
I don’t know what kind of beer it is, but I’m having trouble coming up with 30 plants.
Wait, the North Koreans made a drink that’s anti-occidental?
:eek:
Wait till they learn whiskey can make a man bulletproof…
Maybe all those famines happened because they were trying to fertilize crops with North Korean Brawndo?
Well, it DOES have what North Koreans crave, after all…
From what I’ve heard, they trade in really good counterfeit American hundred dollar bills, counterfeit Viagra and very pure methamphetamines.
