Well we have
known this all along, but now Dr. Ken Walker a.k.a.
syndicated columnist, W.Gifford Jones has given his
stamp of approval.
"Beer has
no caffeine, no cholesterol, no fat," says Dr. Ken
Walker. "In moderation, it is very sound medication."
He even goes on to say it can be credited with saving
lives.
Similar arguments
have been made about the medicinal
qualities of red wine. A couple of beers a night
is good, apparently. Three or four is OK. But any
more is trouble. The real problem, according to Walker,
is the habits that go along with beer. Beer bellies
aren't just the result of drinking too many suds.
It's the nachos dripping with cheese, chips, and fried
chicken wings that are often consumed with beer.
In the Middle
Ages, beer was safer to consume than water. And until
recently some countries gave pregnant women a half-pint
of Stout a day because it was considered nutritious.
