Akihabaranews has this interesting update about a new product being launched into the market
“Tokyo-based Nakazawa Foods will launch the “Adult Milk” line of products in October targetting “adults who live in a stressful society,” the company said in a statement.”
Apparently, this milk are specially taken from cows at break dawn every week as it is believed the cows release a lot of stress-relief hormones - Melatonin during the night.
While this might seem essential to the stressful working community in Japan, the milk does not come cheap as it costs 5 times more than the normal milk you can find in the market over there at a price of 5000yen.
A hefty sum for a bottle of 900ml milk, isnt it?
Will you be able fork out 5000 yen to buy a bottle of stress relief milk? Me? I would rather use it to buy a figurine or a game to de-stress instead.

I love milk, but I see no point to buy something like that at all. I hardly have any stress (despite the fact I should have tons). So ya, I do not see any point at all ^^

Wouldn’t that induce even more stress if you have to work longer hours to pay for that milk?

@oOgA - Yes I am stressed out. I am currently a 3rd year medical student. I get roughly 4-5 hours of sleep a night, study my ass off, work long shifts at the hospital, and in my 1-2 hours of free time I watch anime and blog. No time to really just relax. Anything that would reduce stress would be very welcome to me.
