Wtf? Beer

🍺 BEER 🍺

Does beer make you feminine? Does Dylan Mulvaney make a valid point???

This topic will be a sore spot for many people. However, the “beer belly” has a scientific backing behind it. You develop a lot of visceral fat (the bad fat around your organs) in addition to the liver damage that chronic alcohol intake causes.

The molecule found in hops, 8-Prenylnaringenin (8-PN), is a remarkably potent estrogenic. Its strength is such that it’s being studied for potential use in estrogen therapy. This fact should make you pause and reconsider your beer consumption.

I always ask patients, “How badly do you want it?” Knowing this information, if you are not where you want to be with your body, is it worth keeping something that could be antagonistic to your goals in exchange for temporary pleasure? That is a question that you must ask deep down for yourself.
