Janine squeezed the sweat from her shirt into a glass, carefully safeguarding every drop. It was a hot day and, after the exercise routine she'd just gone through, she was really in a lather.

Adding today's sweat to what she had gathered earlier in the week, she had almost a full glass. Tammy, her guru, had said to wait until the sweat touched the mark near the rim, but the temptation to gulp it down immediately was too great. Janine tipped the glass back and started chugging.

She ran to the mirror. For the moment, she didn't look any younger.
