Guinness vs. Beer: Which is Healthiest?
St. Patrick’s Day is just around the corner which, for many of us, may result in consuming more alcohol than usual. But before you wake up on Sunday with a head full of regrets, did you ever stop to consider the health benefits of your favourite poison?
This infographic from GoIreland highlights some of the major advantages that drinking Guinness and other types of beer can do for you. While we would never condone binge drinking, it’s interesting how a pint of the dark, or paler stuff can actually do good; like unclogging arteries, strengthen the bones and even be a great skin conditioner… when consumed in moderate quantities of course.
The Guinness poster ads of the 30’s once stated it ‘makes you strong’ – despite the lack of scientific evidence at the time, it looks like they weren’t joking.
Happy St. Patrick’s Day!
