Olá Monges,

Agora os monges que não vão aos encontros sociais tem
uma desculpa a menos:

"Those of us who like a few pints already know that
beer fights cancer
(http://www.theregister.co.uk/2005/01/20/beer_fights_cancer/)
and is an absolute life-saver
(http://www.theregister.co.uk/2005/01/31/avalanche_escape/)
in an avalanche emergency situation, but what about
the apparently proven effect of ale on the old
waistline, eh?

After all, anyone who has ever been on a package
holiday to the Spanish costas can attest to the
terrifying expansion of the British male's belly in
response to a few hundred gallons of San Miguel...

Or maybe not. A new campaign by the British Beer and
Pub Association (BBPA), as reported on the BBC
(http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/magazine/4329323.stm),
highlights the most satisfying fact that beer in
reality has less calories than wine, milk or orange
juice - 41, 77, 64 and 42 per cent per 100ml,
respectively.

What actually causes the beer belly is the
overwhelming desire to partake of an enormous kebab or
plate of curry after a particularly robust session,
the BBPA says. This is true, although the BBPA is not
taking in account something else all beer-drinkers
know: that doner kebabs combat male pattern baldness
and curry increases attractiveness to the opposite
sex.

Which is why people who prefer wine are invariably
bald and single - despite having a waistline like
Calista Flockhart.
