Is beer fattening?!


Question: like the good stuff like Corna


Answers: like the good stuff like Corna

yeah

Yes. Why do you think they call it a beer belly?

Yes, it is full of calories, but it is so worth it. They do have light beer. You won't catch me drinking the light stuff.

Yes. It doesnt have actual fat, but high carbohydrates and high calories.
You can get a beer called Pure Blonde which is low carb.

yes

Well if it has calories then maybe. But it depends so probably not

Yes. It's very high in calories, like any alcohol.

I wouldnt tase beer in my life its gross,

Yes, just like anything else with calories.

why yes it is the yeast in it make a lot of things swell

Beer has calories, so of course you have the potential to gain weight from its consumption. The same is true of fruits and vegetables.

A beer belly on the other hand is completly different. The cause and effect is not yet established on this one. People who drink enough beer to cause significant weight gain also tend to eat a lot to begin with. Perhaps its not the 6 pack of beer you have to wash down the 72oz steak, but its the 72 oz steak thats making you fat? That sort of thing.

Oh, and Corona is not good beer. I wouldn't touch it, even at a beach party in Mexico.

I honestly do not know. I have heard it has a lot of calories. I don't drink beer so not really sure. Sorry hun I don't have a better answer. Have a good night. xx

Any alcohol can be fattening if overconsumed, especially if you don't excercise. A given beer might have, let's say, 125 calories in it, but think about this: a shot of vodka might have only 95 calories. Bt then you add a mixer (juice, tonic, soda, etc.) Now you're way over the amount of calories in beer.

And light beer can be even worse (besides the fact that it tastes like crap). It might have less calories, but it also has less alcohol by volume. This typically means you will drink more of it to become intoxicated than you would a regular beer, thus defeating the purpose of drinking a light beer in the first place.

Anyone who drinks often (beer or otherwise) and doesn't excercise at all is gonna wind up with at least a bit of a gut. I am a woman who consumes beer on a regular basis...I keep active, & I am quite tiny (granted I get a little mini-gut in the winter when I tend to be lazy).

And Corona is really not good...ever try it without the lime? Taste like skunky, fizzy water.

YES , the yeast makes its fattening....... keep drinking and watch the stomach rise..
