Cheers to Beer, It’s Good for Ya
Yesterday was Cinco de Mayo, tomorrow is Saturday…what better time to let you know that beer may actually be good for you! Yes, you read that right. This bevy may be calorie-laden and it usually faces the brunt of alcohol trash-talking as red wine is praised in all of its antioxidant glory, but Shape.com is here to debunk the myth that beer is all bad for you!
Bet you didn’t know beer reduces your risk of heart disease, or that it contains fiber along with other vitamins and minerals. And did you have any idea that beer can improve bone density, which for us women is a great thing considering the high risk we’re at for osteoporosis? Read more on [Shape.com] and we’ll see you at the bar!

Post a Commenti don’t like beer
I’ve never been a fan of beer, the taste is just nasty to me.
Mirobrews….Yazoo, Saranac, Seadog. Pretty awesome!
Blue Moon, anything Sam’s and Hoegarten– ALL MY FAVES
I don’t like beer. But i didn’t know that it was good for you. Very interesting. I don’t like wine or other types of alcohol either.
didn’t know this….great excuse to crack open a can =)
I only like beer on an extremely hot day, and I like Blue Moon…..but beer is usually never my first choice. It makes me feel waaaayyy too bloated.
Wow! I did not know the health benefits from beer but I guess that’s a good excuse to drink beer!
i dislike beer
I’m not a fan of domestic, except for Heineken. But I’ll drink some imported.
I like beer a lot more than wine and I don’t get enough calcium so this is great news!
do you know of any gluten free beers you can recommend?
LOL and yet another great reason to drink beer! CHEERS!
That’s great. Lately I’ve been liking beer more than wine. Wine for some reason gives me more of a headache and I feel really dehydrated.
