[Nick Norwitz MD PhD @nicknorwitz]

1/5) A new paper in Nature Metabolism identified a potential Alzheimer’s risk factor hiding in your medicine cabinet.

As soon as I read it, I texted my mom: “Mom, stop taking this supplement.”

Let’s break it down. (Don’t miss the graph on 4/5)

Researchers identified hyperglycosylation as a driver of Alzheimer’s disease.

Glycosylation means adding sugar molecules to proteins, which can change their function.

Today, Senator @DrSchwertner filed SB 655 which removes the 2 bottle limit for sales at TX distilleries. The 2 bottle limit has crippled distillers during #COVID19. We thank @DrSchwertner & joint authors @DrBuckinghamTX & @DrewSpringer their support. #DrinkTexasSpirits #txlege

[Axe and the Oak @axeandtheoak]

During the American Prohibition, Federal Agents would carry axes around their hips as their primary tool to break open oak barrels. The result: 1) many, many gallons of wasted, delicious whiskey. 2) the inspiration behind the name Axe and the Oak Distillery. 🥃

@TXSpiritsGeek @TreatyOakTX That looks dangerous and would be empty in my house in 2-3 days! 🥃 🥃 🥃

[Texas Whiskey Association @TexasWhiskeyOrg]

The same distillers that answered the call to make #sanitizer are now facing ruin. They need legal & CONTACTLESS ways to sell their own products direct-to-consumers. We're asking @GovAbbott to answer our call to remove these restrictions.

[Texas Distilleries @TXDistilleries]

We'll take some barrel aged hand sanitizer!

[CNN Business @CNNBusiness]

Distilleries are stepping in to help combat the hand sanitizer shortage by using the alcohol in their facilities to create their own alcohol-based solutions https://t.co/Uu9EbYRYA8

[TitosVodka @TitosVodka]

@NatGordo Per the CDC, hand sanitizer needs to contain at least 60% alcohol. Tito's Handmade Vodka is 40% alcohol, and therefore does not meet the current recommendation of the CDC. Please see attached for more information.
