Stronger Bones >>Beer contains high levels of silicon, which is linked to bone health. In a >>2009 studyat Tufts University and other centers, older men and women who >>swigged one or two drinks daily had higher bone density, with the greatest >>benefits found in those who favored beer or wine.

A Stronger Heart >>A 2011 analysisof 16 earlier studies involving more than 200,000 people, >>conducted by researchers at Italy’s Fondazion di Ricerca e Cura, found a 31 >>percent reduced risk of heart disease in those who quaffed about a pint of >>beer daily, while risk surged in those who guzzled higher amounts of alcohol, >>whether beer, wine, or spirits. >>More than 100 studies also show that moderate drinking trims risk of heart >>attacks and dying from cardiovascular disease by 25 to 40 percent, Harvard >>reports. A beer or two a day can help raise levels of HDL, the “good” >>cholesterol that helps keep arteries from getting clogged. >>How alcohol affects your sex life >>. Healthier Kidneys >>A study in Finland singled out beer among other alcoholic drinks, finding >>that each bottle of beer men drank daily lowered their risk of developing >>kidney stones by 40 percent. One theory is that beer’s high water content >>helped keep kidneys working,since dehydration increases kidney stone risk. >>It’s also possible that the hops in beer help curb leeching of calcium from >>bones; that “lost” calcium also could end up in the kidneys as stones. >>4. Boosting Brain Health >>A beer a day may help keep Alzheimer’s disease and other dementia at bay, >>researchers say. >>A 2005 studytracking the health of 11,000 older women showed that moderate >>drinkers (those who consumed about one drink a day) lowered their risk of >>mental decline by as much as 20 percent, compared to non-drinkers. In >>addition, older women who downed a drink a day scored as about 18 months >>“younger,” on average, on tests of mental skills than the non-drinkers. >>Learn which foods can help your body heal >> >>5. Reduced Cancer Risk >>A Portuguese study found that marinating steak in beer eliminates almost 70 >>percent of the carcinogens, called heterocyclic amines (HCAs) produced when >>the meat is pan-fried. Researchers theorize that beer’s sugars help block >>HCAs from forming. >>Scientists also have found that beer and wine contain about the same levels >>of antioxidants, but the antioxidants are different because the flavonoids >>found in hops and grapes are different. >>6. Boosting Vitamin Levels >>A Dutch study, performed at the TNO Nutrition and Food Research Institute, >>found that beer-drinking participants had 30 percent higher levels of vitamin >>B6 levels in their blood than their non-drinking counterparts, and twice as >>much as wine drinkers. Beer also contains vitamin B12 and folic acid. >> >>7. Guarding Against Stroke >>Researchers at the Harvard School of Public Health found that moderate >>amounts of alcohol, including beer, help prevent blood clots that block blood >>flow to the heart, neck and brain—the clots that cause ischemic stroke, the >>most common type. >>Alcohol's Pros and Cons: An Upd >> >> >> >>8. Reduced Risk for Diabetes >>Drink up: A 2011 Harvard studyof about 38,000 middle-aged men found that when >>those who only drank occasionally raised their alcohol intake to one to two >>beers or other drinks daily, their risk of developing type 2 diabetes dropped >>by 25 percent. The researchers found no benefit to quaffing more than two >>drinks. The researchers found that alcohol increases insulin sensitivity, >>thus helping protect against diabetes. >>9. Lower Blood Pressure >>Wine is fine for your heart, but beer may be even better: A Harvard study of >>70,000 women ages 25 to 40 found that moderate beer drinkers were less likely >>to develop high blood pressure—a major risk factor for heart attack—than >>women who sipped wine or spirits. >>10. Longer Life >>In a 2005 reviewof 50 studies, the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) >>reported that moderate drinkers live longer. The USDA also estimatesthat >>moderate drinking prevents about 26,000 deaths a year, due to lower rates of >>heart disease, stroke, and diabetes. >>These benefits appear to apply in other countries as well, with an earlier >>studyreporting that, “if European beer drinkers stopped imbibing, there would >>be a decrease in life expectancy of two years—and much unhappiness.” >>Follow this plan to be happy and live longer >>-------------------- >> >> >> >>Charlene.....Oklahoma >>Strangers Are Friends.....Not Yet Met >>To See GOD'S Wonders.....Travel >>2011 34ft TARRA Class A Motor Home >
