A recent study has found that it's better to drink beer than milk.
| quote: |
The dairy industry spends more than $300 million every year to convince people to drink gallons of the white stuff, but PETA's sentiments are with savvy health officials who warn that dairy products have four major drawbacks. Milk and cheese: 1) are loaded with fat and cholesterol; 2) are frequently contaminated with pesticides and drugs; 3) are linked to diabetes, heart disease, and certain cancers; and 4) may even cause osteoporosis, the very disease that the dairy industry loves to use as a selling point in its ads, because the excess protein in dairy products leaches calcium from the bones. (The Harvard Nurses’ Study shows almost twice as many bone breaks among women who drink three glasses of milk a day as compared to women who drink little to no milk.)

Here's why beer is better
A nutritional comparison of beer and milk reveals that:
* Beer has zero fat; milk is loaded with fat.
* Beer has zero cholesterol; milk contains 20 mg of cholesterol in every 8-oz. serving[/b].
* Beer doesn't contain hormones or antibiotics, while milk contains an ever-increasing variety of the pesticides and antibiotics fed to cows, including rBGH, the notorious growth hormone that can give guys breasts.
* Beer has half a gram of fiber in every cup; milk has no fiber whatsoever.
* Beer has only 12 mg of sodium per cup. Milk is sky-high in the stuff.
* Beer has 3 grams of complex carbohydrates in a 12-oz. glass; milk has no complex carbohydrates.
The high animal protein content of milk actually leaches calcium from the bones. In the U.S., Norway, and Sweden—where people consume the most dairy products—women have the highest rates of osteoporosis in the world. Regions of the world where dairy products are not part of the culture, such as China and Japan, are virtually osteoporosis-free.
Many studies have shown a strong correlation between animal product consumption (including dairy products) and breast cancer. |

uhhh, cause those facts aren't so "obvious" to the general public. most people think that milk should be consumed daily because it's 'oh-so-good' for you when it actually isn't |

Yah the words used in such reports are not known to everyone, and noone knows the measurement and stuff too. Like "3 grams of complex carbohydrates" and 'rBGH' and stuff, they make them look sophisticated.
But in general its very obvious that beer is good for your health.
Like OMG smoking causes Lung Cancer! |

i never heard of beer actually being good for your health; but I do know that it doesn't have a negative effect on it, as some people would like to believe.

along with liver disease, depression, decreased coordination, nausea, vomiting (vomiting while unconscious can kill), reduced impulse control
emotional volatility (anger, violence, sadness, etc),
frequent urination (more with beer or wine), diuretic effect,
dizziness and confusion,
blackouts and memory loss at high doses,
coma and death at extreme doses,
brain and liver damage (cirrhosis) with heavy use,
lowered inhibitions and increased confusion can lead to unwanted and negative sexual encounters (date rape),
hangover, lasting 12-36 hours, from mild to severe after heavy use
fetus damage in pregnant women at high dose or frequency etc etc etc |
