For all of you who enjoy beer it may delight you to know that it appears to be good for your bones. Beer contains silicon which, some researchers claim, helps strengthen bones. But skeptics say that a link has not been clearly established between beer drinking and improved bone density.
But another study at Tufts University claimed that people who drink one to two glasses of beer a day tend to have stronger bones that those who do not.
So as someone who has osteoporosis, do I suddenly acquire a taste for beer?
I think not. Instead I will continue to pop my bisphosphonate on Sunday mornings.
Images of my not having to endure the half hour wait after I take my pill before I can eat on Sunday mornings were replaced by those of my falling down after having a couple of beers.
Tho I guess I wouldn’t feel the pain of my broken hip.
