Water and Water

Ok now. You do realize that the below article about water and beer and wine is no longer true today. But it was very true before 1950 or so. You KNOW that pure clean water is the best thing for your body.

Before that time we weren’t able to test water for E. Coli, bacteria, and even worms. Even today a hospital in Minnesota tested most of their patients for worms and found that 6% of them did have worms.

I’m not kidding about beer and wine though either: in moderation they are much better for you to drink than the chemical wasteland of soda pop. More on that later.

Think about it; we as humans have been drinking beer and wine for thousands of years. They can’t be that bad for us!

What to drink?

BEER & WINE vs. WATER

As Ben Franklin said: In wine there is wisdom, in beer there is freedom, in water there is bacteria. (Actually I kinda doubt that Mr. Franklin knew what bacteria was 200 years ago.)

In a number of carefully controlled trials, scientists have demonstrated that if we drink 1 liter of water each day, at the end of the year we would have absorbed more than 1 kilo of Escherichia coli, (E. coli) - bacteria found in feces. In other words, we are consuming 1 kilo of poop.

However, we do NOT run that risk when drinking wine & beer (or tequila, rum, whiskey or other liquor) because alcohol has to go through a purification process of boiling, filtering and/or fermenting.

Remember: Water = Poop, Wine = Health

Therefore, it's better to drink wine and talk stupid, than to drink water and be full of shit.

There is no need to thank me for this valuable information: I'm doing it as a public service.
