Patti B Posted January 16, 2008 Share Posted January 16, 2008 On our morning news show today, they did a health segment about a new study from Germany that showed that drinking beer can actually slow down cancer. Apparently, there is something in hops that produces an enzyme which aids in inhibiting the growth of cancer cells. Additionally,hops is high in anti-oxidants. Interesting!!! So.... I never liked beer much. I prefer a white zinfindel or a kahlua and cream, but I have a date with a six-pack of brewskis today!! Bottoms up!!

Donna G Posted January 16, 2008 Share Posted January 16, 2008 60 BEERS is much too much-Especially for a women !!!!!!!!!!!! We absorb twice as much as men and get twice as drunk. Several young women around here lately have "binged" and have been found dead from alcohol poisoning. DonnaG Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Muriel Posted January 16, 2008 Share Posted January 16, 2008 Well, maybe if the study had been conducted in Italy, they would be recommending wine???????????? I hope Kasey and Fred see this. They should probably stock up on beer for the Pub. I suppose that should be German beer. I like Beck's, please. Muriel Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JB Posted January 16, 2008 Share Posted January 16, 2008 Well if that's the case (no pun intended) I should be good to go. But then again, thinking about our college days, Col could almost keep up with me, so I'm not certain I believe it. It is an interesting idea, and an excuse to drink.
