Is beer a FOOD?

Hmmm....yep you are correct. This is one of the most controversial topic to discuss. Anyway i will give some positive as well as negative ideas to prove both sides where you can decide weather its really a food or not.

What is food:- Food is any substance that can be metabolized by an animal to give energy and build tissue.

So if beer a food, should supply a significant amount of carbohydrate, lipids or proteins that can be easily metabolized and convert to energy.

After fermentation beer only left trace amount of non-fermentable sugars which accounts very small in percentage. As the carbohydrates act as the biggest source of energy beer gives nothing at all.

Then beer is not a Food...???

But what about other nutrients it gives?

There are a bunch of nutrients in beer, including: folate, fibre, potassium, magnesium, vitamins B6 and B12 and there’s even some calcium in there.

hmmm....So whats your decision now? .....Still confused....

Then you must know this too,

Is beer good for you?
