Beer for the Bones

The latest research, from King's College and St. Thomas Hospital in London, England, determined that beer contains high levels of silicon which comes from the soil. They say that half a pint of beer, which would be a fairly large glass, will give the imbiber 20% of daily requirements. It seems to be absorbed better from the liquid source than from a food source such as string beans, cereals, and breads. By extrapolation, it would take a large pitcher to fulfill the daily needs...a bit of a stretch and not to be recommended. These findings are currently being presented to a prestigious scientific conference in Brussels to point out that 2,700 men and women have benefited from the silicon in beer.

The country famed for its vodka-swilling is turning quite dramatically to pale ales, stouts and their cousins. Consumption of beer per capita has nearly tripled in the last six years, and marketing firms predict beer sales will outpace vodka sales this year for the first time in Russia.

In a country that believes its founding father chose the Orthodox religion because it was more permissive toward alcohol, the eclipse of vodka still remains hard to imagine.

"The Russian soul is a mystery," said Alexander Boyarkov, 52, who has owned Russian Style bar since the end of communism in 1991. "That's how we drink. If you've got a problem, you drink. If you're happy, you drink. If you go on a picnic, you drink. That's how we have fun. But now in a Western market economy, we don't have as much time. Everybody's too busy and you can't drink as much."
