Beer has almost no fat and zero cholesterol. It can be less fattening than wine and RTDs, and contains less sugar and more dietary fibre, thanks to its barley content.
Malt is rich in vitamins and minerals, especially B6 and B12, and 500ml of beer meet about 30% of an average person’s daily need for vitamins. The presence of hops can provide beneficial sedative effects and their bitterness can aid digestion.
Moderate beer drinkers are less prone to stress and heart disease than may teetotalers and heavy drinkers.
Alcohol, consumed in moderate amounts, reduces fat deposits in blood vessel walls and also lowers cholesterol levels your blood, which can counteract cardiac diseases and stabilize your blood pressure.
And let’s not forget that beer is about 95% water. Its high water content, and relatively low alcohol content compared to wine and spirits, makes it good, thirst-quenching drink.
Beer’s ideal ionic composition also helps prevent gall and kidney stones. With all that water, it’s also a diuretic which can help keep the urinary tract open and prevent infection.
Beer also has traces of zinc, copper and iron which can help with prostate gland problems. And the hops in beer have been linked to helping prevent blood clots.
So,for the good of your body and your soul, enjoy a couple of Belgian beers whenever you feel like. |
