Non-alcoholic beer is not just allows a person to enjoy the taste of a drink, but also helps him stay healthy. Thus, Japanese researchers found that frequent consumption of the drink lowers the risk of cancer.
As shown by studies conducted at the University of Okayama, mice treated with water instead of alcohol-free beer were much more resistant to cancer-causing substances than animals receiving water. Thus, the injection of them even substances with high carcinogenic activity, causing the formation of tumors with a probability of about 95%, at worst, cause they have a reversible tissue damage of the liver, lungs and kidneys. A less active carcinogen injection resulted in only minor changes to tissues - on average they were expressed at 85% less than usual at these same doses of drugs.
Now scientists are developing a program of additional research, which will search for "anti-" non-alcoholic beer components. When these components are found, researchers will try to separate them in pure form for subsequent use in pharmacology.
It should be noted that, according to experts, the conclusion about the benefits of non-alcoholic beer should not be "transferred" to the usual. "Despite the fact that non-alcoholic beer in their composition is quite close to normal, we do not in any way we can say that the usual beer as good, - said in an interview with" BBC "Dr. Sakae Arimoto-Kabayashi, one of the authors of this study. - On the contrary, the available data, active consumption of beer may cause serious harm to health. Therefore, we strongly recommend that you replace the beer and other alcoholic beverages from non-alcoholic counterparts.
"Recall that the discussion of the possible benefits of alcohol, especially rather weak, continuing for several decades. It is known that, for example, beer or red wine in moderate consumption reduces the risk of cardio-vascular system. But the data on how they affect cancer risk to date in the scientific literature was not.
