Several studies indicate that drinking beer can increase lifespan, reduce pain, and decrease the risk of heart diseases while helping to enhance the diversity of gut bacteria. Researchers reached this conclusion after studying 19 men who consumed 325 ml of beer daily for four weeks, randomly divided into two groups: one group consumed alcoholic beer, while the other group consumed non-alcoholic beer. Researchers discovered that there were no changes in the participants' weight, body mass index, heart health indicators, or metabolic markers during the trial. However, by the end of the study, they found an increase in the diversity of bacteria in the gut microbiome, as well as an elevated level of alkaline phosphatase in the stool of both groups, indicating improved gut health.
It is important to note that the digestive system contains trillions of microorganisms that directly affect human health and even personal traits. Numerous studies have shown that individuals with a high diversity of gut bacteria have a lower likelihood of developing chronic diseases, such as heart disease and diabetes. Beer is known to contain compounds like polyphenols and microorganisms that form during fermentation, which can influence the diversity of the human gut microbiome.
However, when it comes to daily beer consumption, it will certainly harm the body, according to a health report published by the "Times of India."
