We know it's football season and that nothing goes better with your chicken wings than a beer, but most beers aren't worth the calories. A 12 ounce serving of Budweiser contains 143 calories. Beer amounts to little more than liquid carbs—and a growing gut.
Drink This Instead: If you're going to drink beer,
choose Guinness. Despite its heavy, hearty dark appearance, this stout has 20 fewer calories per 12-ounce serving than a Bud. But there's more. A University of Wisconsin study last fall found that moderate consumption of Guinness worked like aspirin to prevent blood clots that increase the risk of heart attacks. That's because the antioxidants it contains are better than vitamins C and E at keeping bad LDL cholesterol from clogging arteries.
