Beer, surprisingly, despite being an alcoholic drink, is beneficial for your body. Wine is good for your heart, but beer has many more added health benefits. The key to its consumption is moderate drinking habits and you will find below its benefits listed.
Brain Health
Dementia and Alzheimer’s are a few of those diseases that can be prevented from having a beer a day. Non-regular beer drinkers have a decline in mental stability by 20% compared to the ones who swore by beer. This is because the silicon in beer protects the brain from developing aluminum effects that degrade its health.
Healthier Kidneys
The risks of kidney stones are lowered by about 40% with beer consumption. Beer contains above 93% water that effectively flushes out the toxins from the body and helps to maintain kidney health.
Better Heart
Moderate consumption of beer is the key to maintaining good heart health. Heart risks are lowered by 20-40%. Beer enables the anti-clotting effect of blood that keeps the vessels clean and the blood flowing. Regular beer consumption also lowers fibrinogen deposition.
Stronger Bones
High silicon content in beer results in better bone health. Higher silicon results in increasing the strength of the bones while also increasing their mineral density. But overconsumption will lead to bone fractures and decay.
Low Cancer Risks
High antioxidants and flavonoids in dark beers help to prevent cancer, especially prostate cancer in men. Xanthohumol, a great antioxidant present in beer has helpful anti-cancer properties.
Low Diabetes Risks
The alcohol in beer also increases your insulin sensitivity preventing diabetes risks.
Protection Against Strokes
Ischemic strokes happen because of excessive blood clots. Not only this, blood clots can lead to several different life-threatening risks. This majorly happens when the arteries to the brain get blocked. Drinking beer regularly in moderation helps to release these blood clots and enable a steady flow of blood to the brain, preventing any major complications.
Source of Multivitamin
Alcoholic drink is a source of vitamins? Astonishing, yet true. Apart from being rich in vitamin B, it is also rich in vitamin B3. Beer also contains choline, pantothenic acid, flavonoids, and vitamin B6.
High Fiber
Beer is a good source of fibers, sugar, and starch too that stimulates good intestinal peristalsis.
