The British Medical Journal has reported a study into the effect of beer drinking amongst middle aged men in the Czech Republic. This found that beer had a protective effect against heart attacks among the 900 men who drank only beer. Those who drank five to nine litres per week were less than half as likely to have a heart attack than men who drank no beer at all.
