The Top Reasons Why Drinking Beer Might Just Be Good For You in Australia



When people hear you talking about beer, they always go to the place where people think that beer is bad for you and it will result in weight gain. We have all heard about men having a beer belly but it is important to understand that like everything in life, if it is enjoyed in moderation then it can offer up many benefits. It is the perfect solution for those of us who work very hard at our jobs and we just want something that will allow us to relax and to reduce our stress and anxiety levels at the end of the week.

There is nothing better than getting a cold beer from the fridge, putting it in your stubby holder and sipping it back. You may not be aware of the fact but you can include beer as part of your healthy diet and it can offer up many health benefits as well. If you find this to be somewhat unbelievable then please continue to read so that you can learn more.

1. It has protein & vitamins - Many people talk about having a ‘liquid lunch’ and this is what they are referring to. Clearly, you need to be aware of the number of calories that are in each bottle or pint of beer but it still contains many essential nutrients and important vitamins. It is also an antioxidant and it may contribute to better gut bacteria when you enjoy it a few times a week.

2. It helps to lower your risk of diabetes - As Australians get fatter due to the fast food diets that they now enjoy, it has never been more important to help protect yourself from things like diabetes. There have been quite a few studies carried out that say if you drink alcohol 2 to 3 times a week then you have a lower incidence of getting diabetes than those who don’t drink at all.

3. It’s good for your heart - When people want to enjoy a beverage, they usually reach for a glass of red wine but beer offers the same health benefits as well. Once again, there have been many studies carried out that say that people who drink moderately have a much lower risk of experiencing cardiovascular diseases. For the male of the species, drinking beer in moderation protects you from heart disease.

4. It helps with inflammation - Inflammation in our bodies is the leading cause of many of us getting sick and so anything that you can do to reduce this kind of inflammation needs to be embraced. Beer has anti-inflammatory properties and so enjoying a glass or three each week helps to keep you in good shape.

The other great news is that if you drink a moderate amount of beer then in all likelihood, you’re going to live longer than those who don’t. Obviously, you can’t go on a binge consuming copious amounts of beer because this will have negative effects on your overall health.
