Beer and hormones: how beer affects the hormonal background of men and women – the opinion of an endocrinologist

The vodka equivalent of beer

Those specialists who study the issues of alcoholism do not separate alcoholic beverages according to the level of degrees and the degree of their influence on the body. All of them, without exception, are harmful to health. Although beer drink manufacturers try to advertise their products by emphasizing the fact that these are low-alcohol drinks that are not so harmful and even “healthy”, this is nothing more than a marketing ploy.

By the way, far from all beers that are sold in stores today are low-alcohol. For some, the percentage of alcohol reaches 14%, while in Soviet times these were varieties from 1.5 to 6%.

According to Rospotrebnadzor, a bottle of light beer is the equivalent of 50-60 grams of vodka, and if you drink 4 of them, it will be almost 250 grams. Consuming this amount of alcohol is by no means safe, including in terms of the effect on metabolism.
