Alcohol 'protects men's hearts'
Fantastic news:
Quote:
Drinking alcohol every day cuts the risk of heart disease in men by more than a third, a major study suggests.
The Spanish research involving more than 15,500 men and 26,000 women found large quantities of alcohol could be even more beneficial for men.

Re: Alcohol 'protects men's hearts'
But don't the Spanish drink more wine than beer?Surely it's the grape juice that's better for them than any grain or hops related booze?

Re: Alcohol 'protects men's hearts'
If I've got to drink wine instead of beer, I don't see that as a hardship

only because they can't make proper beer, how can beer not be good for you its full of good things[the british heart foundation tell us to eat more grain ] so whats wrong with fermenting it a little ,and hop's must be one of the five a day bits of green chaff or fruit we are meant to eat ,and if you bung a squirt of lime in your larger your totally vitamened up ,therefor beer must be good for us ,if my post seems a little squiffy its because i'm overdosing on heart healthy larger

I'll have a San Miguel over a Carling any day (or everyday rather). Oh, and don't start on lager not being beer:
