I'll Drink to That

Most of us who care about such matters are probably quite familiar with the idea that moderate alcohol consumption can be a healthy and life-extending activity.  But I still couldn't help my giddiness when I came across an article on the Yahoo! featured news feed that describes the health benefits associated specifically with beer.  Some of the 10 health benefits the author describes are common to all alcoholic beverages, but are greater for beer than for other alcoholic drinks like wine and spirits.  And some of the benefits truly are specific to beer alone.

So the next time you raise a pint to your lips, take comfort in the fact that you're drinking that pale ale for recreational AND medicinal purposes!
