What Is The Healthiest Beer?

Chattanooga, Tennessee—(Pulse)

Registered dietitian Chris Mohr says that alcohol, one of the main components of beer, is a toxic substance that can lead to a variety of health problems.

While alcohol is an ingrained part of social culture, excessive consumption can lead to high blood pressure, cancer, a weakened immune system, cognitive dysfunction, mental health problems, and alcohol dependency.

According to USA Today, the healthiest beer option is one that has the lowest ABV, or alcohol by volume, as it’s the overall alcohol content that matters regardless of the source. A standard drink of regular beer contains 5% alcohol, but many beers have a higher ABV.
