this is a man who once quit heroin by becoming an alcoholic
Keith Richards has taken a health conscious move - he has started drinking organic vodka.The Rolling Stones rocker, who is renowned for his drink and drug use, was encouraged to go organic by bandmate Ronnie Wood's wife, Jo Wood, who is a keen advocate for green living.
Jo told Britain's Daily Express newspaper: "I bought Keith 12 bottles of organic vodka for his birthday in December and when he got it he cracked up.
I'm always going on about how the band should drink organic booze - they get really sick of me going on sometimes." At the height of their fame, The Stones - who also currently comprise of Sir Mick Jagger and drummer Charlie Watts - were notorious for their fast-living rock 'n' roll lifestyle.
Jo developed an interest in alternative health and organic food after being wrongly diagnosed with Chron's disease.
She went on to write a book, 'Naturally: How To Look And Feel Healthy And Radiant', and launch a range of organic beauty products.
Jo has encouraged all her husband's bandmates to lead healthier lifestyles and the ageing rockers have even been spotted out jogging together in recent months.
