there are a lot of people who are against drinking and discourage people from drinking... but beer is the healthiest drink available on the planet... im not saying this because i drink but because it is proved by various researches and these are the main points to be noted and learnt for drinkers as well as non drinkers-
1. beer increases brain cells which can be used for learning
2. beer helps fighting cancer
3. beer helps to make bones stronger
4. protects against harmful sunrays by acting as a sun protection
5. good for ur hair and skin
6. beer has more energy than a glass of milk
7. it is not fattening... what makes it fattening is the food u eat along with it as beer makes u hungry and not fat... a glass of milk is considered more fattening than a pint of beer...

so think about all of these points... all these have been proved by various researches and experiments...
and its not an apple a day that keeps the doctor away but a pint of beer a day that keeps the doctor away!!!!
