BEER HELPS YOU ‘BONE' UP: STUDY

October 21, 2002 -- This Bud's for you - and your bones.

That's the word from scientists who say a glass of beer a day helps young women and men maintain strong and healthy bones.

They found an individual's intake of silicon, a mineral absorbed from the soil by plants and most especially by cereals such a wheat and barley, is directly linked to bone strength. And beer is one of the richest sources of silicon.Bill Hoffmann
