It's one of the world's favorite alcoholic beverages.
And, fortunately for millions of pub-goers, it seems that beer may have a number of unexpected health benefits, too. It Reduces Heart Risk And Improves Brain Health.
That's according to scientists who've published research in The American Journal of the Medical Sciences. They claim beer boasts more protein and B vitamins than wine, is high in antioxidants and can reduce the occurrence of cardiovascular disease.
The antioxidant content of beer is equivalent to that of wine, but the specific antioxidants are different because the barley and hops used in the production of beer contain flavonoids different from those in the grapes used in the production of wine, according to scientists.
So don't feel guilty having a beer over the festive season, moderation with everything is the key :-)
Have a great Christmas and a Happy New Year
