Benefits of Drinking Beer in Moderation

Author: Caerberu  //  Category: Health

Yes! Drinking beer has benefits! But only provided that it is taken in moderation.

Moderation means that it is 1 glass of beer for women in a day, at most. For men, it can be up to 2 glasses of beer due to men’s faster metabolism.

Drinking beer in moderation reduces the chance of a stroke by as much as 20%, and according to a research in the Texas Southwestern Medical Center on May 1999, it reduces the rate of coronary heart disease by 30-40%.

Beer contains polyphenols or antioxidants and increases the amount of good cholesterol in the bloodstream.
