A standard 12-ounce serving of the smooth dark beer has almost same alcohol content as many light beers, “but (is) very satisfying,” Fernstrom says. “And fermented, which supports gut health.”
The food energy in both Miller's MGD 64 and Budweiser's Select 55 have been reduced simply by lowering the fermentables content. MGD 64 has only 2.8% alcohol content and some Select 55 states "alcohol content not more than 3.2% by weight / 4% by volume", possibly to allow its sale in areas where that is the limit. The actual alcohol content of ...
He boiled the needles of a tree the St. Lawrence Iroquoians called the Aneda (probably Thuja occidentalis, commonly known as "eastern white cedar" and "arborvitae) to make a tea that was later shown to contain 50 mg of vitamin C per 100 grams. [3] [4] Such treatments were not available aboard ship, where the disease was most common.
