“I can’t have a Guinness because I am on a diet.” “How can you drink that? It’s so filling!” “I just ate, there is no way I can drink one of those right now.” Have you ever heard anyone say such blasphemy? Perhaps you have even said it yourself. Well, let me shed some of knowledge upon you.
To begin, I absolutely love Guinness. Let’s put it this way, I would bathe in it if I had the choice. It has everything you are looking for in a dark stout. It has a creamy roasted taste, a deep blended scent similar to rich mahogany and an aura of a Greek God. I like Guinness from the tap, bottle, can or even in cooked in my food.
Now that I have shared my obsession with Guinness, let’s look at some reasons why Guinness is an essential part of a healthy lifestyle. It has been proven that 1-3 beers per day is good for your mind, body and heart. I’m not going to get into the specifics of this, but if you would like to see it then check out this site
Guinness draught has 125 calories and around 10 grams of carbs. This is actually fairly competitive health wise as bud light. Bud light has around 100 calories and a little over 6.5 carbs. So doing the math leaves us with Guinness adding on 25 more calories and an extra 3.5 carbs. You can burn that off by walking to the bathroom and taking a leak. Rather than drinking a watered down “light” beer, PLEASE do yourself a favor and pound a Guinness.
Peace Out and Stay Classy
