Top Benefits of beer and where to get the best in Orlando
It might come as a shocker to most of you, but did you know that one of the most popular alcoholic beverages is actually benefiting you? Beer!
While wine is good for your heart, beer has up to ten health benefits starting with bone breakage risk reduction to warding off mental decline. Take a look for yourself at some of the top benefits beer can do for your body (Know don’t forget, Beer also can have its negative downsides, so don’t overdo it). Also, make sure to check out the bottom of our blog to see some of the top breweries right here in Orlando!
Stronger Bones
Owing to its high silicon content, beer may be good for bone health. Silicon is found to improve bone strength and increase bone mineral density. Still, overconsumption of beer will weaken the bones while increasing the risk of bone fractures. So, when drinking it be mindful of these side effects and drink it in moderation.
Acts as a Multivitamin
It gets hard to believe that an alcoholic drink can be a source of vitamins! Still, it doesn’t get better than this. Apart from being rich in vitamin B (particularly homebrew), it is richest in Niacin which is also known as vitamin B3. Other than these, beer contains vitamins such as Choline, Flavonoids, Pantothenic Acid, other B vitamins, and vitamin B6.
Clears skin and helps hair growth
All the vitamins in beer are really good for acne reduction and increasing natural skin shine. Further, beer acts as a great hair growth stimulator. The contents of hops and malt in beer make hair more healthy and act as an exceptional ingredient for hair growth. When you rinse your hair with beer and wash it off after few minutes, it gives a shine to the hair. Some hairstylists claim it to help with damaged hair. The only problem is the strong smell beer has.
