beer may make bones stronger

[Amby 490]

Here’s another reason to have a beer – a recent study suggests that females who drink beer on a regular basis are less likely to suffer from osteoporosis, London’s Daily Telegraph reported.

The medical journal Nutrition says that beer has a high level of silicon, which slows down the thinning that leads to broken bones and helps form new ones.

Beer also has phytoestrogens, which are also good for keeping bones healthy and strong.

Scientists asked more than 1,000 women in their 40s about their drinking habits. They then scanned the women’s hands, and found the women who drank beer had denser hands.

“Silicon plays a major role in bone formation,” the researchers said. “Beer has been claimed to be one of the most important sources of silicon in the Western diet."

Too bad beer's so bitter, or maybe I'd drink it

That's what we've been saying for years, beer is good for you.

As far as being too bitter, you need to sample more to find one to your taste. Try the micro brews for distinct flavor and differences in taste.

For me, we have a great local brewery that has a large selection of beers & ales. They are called Sierra Nevada Brewing Company.
