Drinking beer for better health.

I read today that drinking beer improves the strength of our bones, and reduces a man’s chance of prostate cancer. I’m interested in having strong bones and not getting cancer, so I figured this was something I needed to look into.
The research is showing that one of the compounds in beer blocks the estrogen in the male body by binding to its receptor.
Now I always knew I had estrogen in my body, and I knew that because Arnold Schwarzenegger made us all aware of that problem when he started calling a few male members of the species “girly men.” But before this, I never thought I could do much about it.
Now I learn that all those guys sitting in the bar each night are really doing it for their health. You can tell that their bones are getting stronger, because if I carried the weight that most of them are carrying, my knees would buckle.
Next time you see one of these guys on the beach wearing a speedo, you need to think differently about them. They are just taking care of their health.
But now I’m conflicted. You see I never really liked beer. I was told when I was young that it was an acquired taste, and that meant that you had to drink a lot of it to like it, but I never liked it well enough to drink a lot of it.
Now I am ready to try again. But the only beer I have in the house are a few bottles in the garage refrigerator that I bought for a holiday party during Bush’s first term.
I opened one to taste it.
I think I am going to wait until tomorrow to improve my health.
