Bier Lovers Corner:  Bier and your health

Other Health Effects of Moderate Beer Consumption

How much alcohol is present in beer?
There is a considerable amount of debate among scientists on the questions of how much beer per day is healthy, and at which consumption level beer drinking become excessive and a problem. Their objective is to define the line between healthy use and unhealthy abuse of alcohol, in beer or otherwise, and to arrive at physiological thresholds which constitute meaningful recommendations to nutritionists and end consumers.

A beverage’s alcohol content is usually given in alcohol by volume (abv). This value differs from the value for alcohol by weight (abw) which is also frequently disclosed on beer labels. Because alcohol is lighter than water, the abv-value is always larger than the abw-value. One milliliter of alcohol weighs 0.793 grams. Therefore, we can convert an abv-value into an abw-value by multiplying it by 0.793 or dividing it by 1.261. Example: A typical Bavarian Helles might have an alcohol content of 4.8% abv. This translates into 4.8 x 0.793 = 3.8% abw. The division 4.8/1.261 yields the same result. In other words, one liter of that same 4.8% Bavarian Helles contains 48 milliliters or about 38 grams of alcohol.

Consumer Recommendations from the US and the UK
While scientists study alcohol issues mostly from the perspective of physiology, governments around the world, when making recommendations to their alcohol-consuming public, also tend to consider issues relating to social customs, religion, and culture.

In the most recent (fourth) edition of "Dietary Guidelines for Americans," issued jointly by the U.S. Department of Agriculture and the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services in December 1995, Americans are being admonished: "If you drink alcoholic beverages, do so in moderation." The document defines “moderate" as no more than 1 drink per day for women and 2 drinks per day for men, and a “drink” of beer, in turn, is defined as one 12-ounce bottle (approximately 355 milliliters). The American government, in other words, recommends that women drink 0.355 liters of standard (4.8% abv) beer, and men drink 0.71 liters.

That same month, the U.K. Department of Health published its official alcohol guidelines for British citizens, which are more generous than the American guidelines, especially for women. The British document specifies the amount of alcohol that protects women against heart attack as 24 grams per day. For men, it specifies that amount as 32 grams per day. Converted for an English Bitter of 4.8% abv, British women, therefore, can drink about 0.62 liters of beer per day, and men, 0.83 liters per day.

Following these American and British government guidelines, men should be able to consume between roughly 70 and 80 U.S. gallons (approximately 260 - 300 liters) of 4.8% abv beer per year without any negative health effects. The equivalent figures for women are roughly 35 - 60 U.S. gallons (130 - 225 liters). These figures compare well to the statistical average per capita of beer consumption in the United States, which is at slightly above 20 U.S. gallons (75 liters). In Germany, by comparison, these figures are at slightly above 30 U.S. gallons (120 liters).

What does it mean?
From this data it follows that universal excessive beer drinking is not the real problem. Rather, it is the uneven distribution of alcohol consumption including beer consumption  in society. There is a minority in society which clearly drinks too much. In this context, alcohol consumption during pregnancy, in conjunction with medications, before driving a motor vehicle, or while on the job can be labeled “abuse,” even if it remains below an otherwise defensible physiological threshold.

The overwhelming majority of beer drinkers, however, enjoy their beverage of choice responsibly. Yet the target of many neo-prohibitionist policy makers nowadays is to curb alcohol misuse through measures that affect everybody, including the responsible drinker. Such measures, which would indiscriminately and drastically reduce the average consumption of alcohol by all, usually involve increases in alcohol taxes and more involved licensing regulations with the often unstated agenda of ultimately eliminating alcohol consumption all together. Considering, however, that the majority of the population consumes alcohol in moderation and within medically recommended limits, the efficacy of alcohol policies targeted at the general public must be questioned, if, indeed, their stated objective is the elimination of alcohol abuse.

Drink in moderation — but regularly!
If one wants to summarize all the international studies about the effects of alcohol consumption on the body and to turn their findings into a recommendation for consumers for the proper amount of beer to drink for optimum health, the following guidelines for “moderate beer consumption” emerge:

Men should not drink more than 40 grams (about 1.7 U.S. fluid ounces) of alcohol per day. This is the rough equivalent of one liter or two pints of beer. Women, on the other hand, should not consume more than half that quantity. Based on studies by Professor Keil (quoted above) this rate of consumption ensures the statistically lowest mortality rate for all individuals.
