Beer Lovers Rejoice, Now It Can Boost Your Immunity!

on

We all know the joy of cracking a cold one at the end of the day. However, we don’t really enjoy the beer belly that comes along with it! Lucky for us, there may be an additional benefit to drinking beer that could cancel out all of our beer belly worries.

According to Smart Cooky experts at the National University of Singapore (NUS) have created a probiotic sour beer can also boost immunity. It is believed to be created with a probiotic strain of Lactobacillus paracasei L26. This probiotic strain is known to have been first isolated from human intestines with an ability to neutralise toxins and viruses. It is also known to regulate the immune system.

Researchers took about nine months to come up with an ideal recipe that achieves the optimal count of live probiotics in the beer. By propagating the probiotic and yeast in pure cultures, and modifying conventional brewing and fermentation processes, researchers managed to increase and maintain the live counts of the strain of probiotic.

While that may sound like a lot of mumbo jumbo, the crux of the matter is that, potentially, drinking beer could be good for you.
