Beer for breakfast?

For those of you who had ten too many beers yesterday while watching the super bowl, and happen to be nursing a hangover, don't feel so bad. Researchers at UC Davis released some information from their study on the benefits beer has in bone health. Out of 100 commercial beers, the study finds that a liter of beer contains about 30 grams of dietary silicon, a key player in bone health.

Although most physicians will still tell you that more than two drinks a day is just no bueno, I feel like this is another reason to add to the list of why beer is so great.

I can dig it.
