guinness is good...for your heart!
it's official. sort of. a wisconsin university study has shown that guinness can help reduce clotting activity in your arteries, similar to a daily aspirin. 24 ounces of the black gold taken at mealtime will yield best results.
The health benefits of drinking alcohol in moderation (better health and greater longevity) commonly associated with wine appear to apply also to whisky. Most researchers now believe that the beneficial substance is the alcohol itself—although it has not been ruled out that other components in the beverages are also responsible for the beneficial effects.[10] However, excessive consumption of any form of alcohol can negatively impact almost all of the body's essential systems, particularly the liver. [1] Furthermore the frequent consumption of strong spirits, such as whisky, significantly increases a person's chance of contracting head and neck cancers[11]
Well there ya go. Drink a moderate amount (uh does every wednesday and an occasional err sometimes frequent Friday and Saturday qualify as moderate?)and you will live long time.

How is that research on the benefits of 7 & 7's or jack and cokes coming along?
You tell us Kasey.
Two beers a day at dinner time. Sheesh, you sure this research wasn't sponsored by Guinness' marketing division?
it's only a pint & 1/2. that's not too bad.
of course, the next study will say that whatever heart benefit is contradicted by the effects on your liver.

I don't know about that. Usually I see the benefits being attributed to the antioxidants.
