The Nerdist has released yet another fascinating episode of Because Science. In this video, host Kyle Hill focuses on the super-soldier serum that was used to turn scrawny Steve Rogers into the superhero Captain America. The video came along with the following caption:

Comics aren't always realistic, but Kyle explains how one day science might be able to create Captain America's super-soldier serum on this episode of Because Science.

I've enjoyed this webseries as the episodes are filled with all kinds of interesting stuff about the things we geek out about. To watch previous episodes click on the following links: The Science of How Daredevil Can See Without Sight and The Science Behind Why Tony Stark’s Iron Man Suit Doesn’t Kill Him.
