Answers:
Noone has ever gotten a "beer belly" off of one or two beers a night. It takes WAAAY more than that.
yes if you drink a lot of it, beer has a lot of carbs which will turn into fat when you are eating carbs and drinking lots of them too
why not drink water beer has alot of acohol in it and ui don't think that is good if you are going on a diet. you can have a beer every now and then but not like every night. Drink a lite hot cocoa.
Beer only causes a beer belly because your not burning the energy the beer gives you. Damn, go run around and so the public drunkness is a healthy thing. I would say the soda is much worse though, all that nasty sugar and acids. An all beer diet is much better then an all soda diet. If you drink bud light(which I can't, yuck whats the point) then its even more healthy for you. All in all though you can eat mcdonalds for a month and be in perfect health if you actually exercise(for that one you would need much more then just regular exercise).
Say goodbye to alchol in general. Try dancing when you feel the urge to drink.
yes
yes if you are not a frequent exerciser. The beer will definetely give you a large belly. After each beer have a glass of water right behind it
it sure does. What most people don't realize is that the label of the beer shows the calories from the carbohydrates in the beer. In addition to those calories are extra calories from the alcohol. Alcohol is readily turned into simple sugar when it is consumed. All of these calories are stored as fat when they are not immediately used. One beer a day won't cause you to have a beer belly if you are having a normally healthy diet in addition. It all comes down to using the same amount of calories you eat so you don't add fat.
beer only causes a beer belly if you drink to excess. the reason people have beer bellys is because when you first start drinking it only takes one or two to get a buzz but as time passes it gets to whrere it takes more and more to get a buzz, the first thing you know it takes a half case to get you the same buzz as you were getting off two or three beers and the first thing you know you have strectched your belly to where it looks like you have swallowed a watermelon.
yes too much calories.
Both the soda and the beer are bad. They both have so many artificial things in them that is bad for your body even if you're not fat.
the main cause of a beer belly is a swollen abdomen from an enlarged liver not the calories, so u should be ok at one or two a day
If you only drink a couple beers, should not be a problem. Stay away from the high carb. sweet snacks. Also if you are used to drinking beer, may not be a good idea to switch to liquor. Moderation is the key.
Overconsumption of anything coupled with inactivity causes weight gain
Yes I definitely have a beer belly from beer cause I don't eat that much so it has to be the beer
Alcohol in general has a lot of sugar, which is a carb and carbs are what turn into fat. The common misperception is that fat turns into fat, but it is excess carb calories which are not burned that turn into fat. Alcohol is a huge contributor to weight gain, because of the calories, and the carbs. To truly lose weight, stop drinking altogether. I lost over 10 pounds buy just stopping drinking alcohol. If you would like to continue, you will need to exercise to burn off the extra calories from the alcohol you consume. I would say the the beer would be worse, but it depends on which product has more sugar and carbs. P.S. Snacking is fine and should be done, just with the correct foods! I have 3 snacks a day, and I usually eat things like almonds, cheese, veggies...and it helps keep your metabolism steady, rather than peaking and then dropping. If you snack on healthy things, you are less likely to get the cravings for junk food. Good luck!
Yes it can if u are planning to drink very single day even though moderated.- Beer packs up carbs..and if u do not hit a gym...or some other form of active exercise.....then it will go straight to your tummy...and everywhere....a beer every now and then is nothing to be hillarious about ...but every single day....too much...why not try to chill on other ...tropical and fruity drinks...to quench that thirst????...I will give u a fat burning ....shake...
