After previous post about health benefits of wine, I was wondering which is better, beer or wine? Here are what the facts that I found…
Both are alcohol based drink which if taken moderately can help ease your heart and increase HDL cholesterol.
Red wine comes with resveratrol which help lower LDL cholesterol. Beer in other hand comes with much more nutrition than wine and also it has vitamin B6 and it is also cheaper than wine.
So in term of benefits, beer is better than wine. Then why people who drink wine is generally more healthier than those who drink beer?
Recent research show that people who drink wine is healthier than those who drink beer not because of the wine itself but from other factor. Those who drink wine usually has healthier lifestyle, they buy and cook their own food. In a simpler ways, imagine what food that is good to eat with wine and then imagine what food that is good to eat with beer.
Beer usually comes with pizza, or big burger, or anything that is deep fried. Wine in other hand usually with something that comes from a cooking channel with 12 ingredient and healthy olive oil and so on. These foods are the one that makes all the difference.
