Biertje?

In class I heard that it is important to use current topics in our blogs. Well, at the moment there is no topic more current than Carnaval is. And, dear readers, what type of beverage will be most popular during Carnaval? Exactly: Beer.

Off course, we all know that drinking too much beer can be devastating for your health, but I was wondering whether there are also positive side-effects. And guess what: there were! I’ll give you a few good excuses to drink beer during this Carnaval! Cheers!

Did you know that:

… Beer protects you against heart attacks? If you drink 500 Cl beer a day, your chances to get a heart attack will decline with up to 60%.

… Beer also protects you against a stroke because it prevents you for blood clots.

…Beer helps you to sleep better. Only one glass is needed to bring you in a more relaxing state.

…Beer protects you against stress. Scholars of the University of Montreal found out that a few glasses beer per day caused a decline in stress hormones. People who were completely sober felt more stress at work than people who were not.

…Beer takes care of a clear skin. Some vitamins in Beer support the building of pigment in your skin. This will make sure that your skin looks pure en clean.

…Beer is good for your hair because the ingredients will give it more volume. Important to know is that you have to use it as a hair rinse instead of drinking it. As you can see below, a lot of shampoo manufacturers have used this wisdom in order to improve their products.
