Study: Beer Could Be Good For What 'Ales' You

CORVALLIS, Ore. -- Now you may have an excuse for reaching for a beer -- as a health food.

Scientists at Oregon State University recently reported that the hops used to brew beer contain a compound that neutralizes free radicals -- the harmful molecules in the blood that can contribute to cancer and other diseases. The compound is exclusive only to hops and is not found anywhere else, the researchers said, adding that the compound is more effective at neutralizing free radicals than similar compounds found in red wine and green tea.

According to the researchers, craft beers such as stouts, porters and other "hoppy" beers have much higher levels of the exclusive free radical-fighting compound than domestic lager and pilsner beers. But don't reach for a six-pack hoping for a cure to all that "ales" you: The researchers said that more study is needed.

I've actually believed that beer reduced a persons cancer risk for many years. Two of my good friends gave up beer about 12 years ago and both got cancer and died within a few years. My dad gave up beer and was gone in less than 2 years. While I was still drinking about 10 to 12 cans a day I told another friend I was doing it to keep those little cancer cells drunk so they didn't know what they were doing. Looks like I'd better go back to drinking the stuff cause I gave it up 18 months ago..........http://bestsmileys.com/dead/2.gif

It also is supposed to reduce the aging process in women. Doctors have been recomending beer for years but only to one or two a day. Anything in excess can be harmful. In my case I just get wasted about once a week then I don't have to drink one everyday. http://bestsmileys.com/lol/2.gif
