Good for you alcoholics.
 
Now I'm going to drink my tea, water, and milk. C'ya.

Too bad beer tastes like shit.

Wasn't this already established a while ago? At least I remember it being mentioned. I don't like beer though, tastes awful. I prefer tea.

If this is true my bones gotta be adamantium by now!
 
 I'm fuckin Wolverine bitches!!

That would probably make sense.  I broke some bones when I was a kid, but not since I started drinking.
 
Yay beer!

Makes sense, you need some strong bones to survive a fun night...

It also destroys your liver. I'll just stick  to drinking milk for my healthy bone growth.

im gonna stick with vodka thank you very much

" It also destroys your liver. I'll just stick  to drinking milk for my healthy bone growth. "

It still doesn't help the fact that I hate the taste of beer and other alcoholic beverages.

Milk tea is pretty awesome.

Awesome. Time to go get tanked so i can get stronger bones before tomorrow!

Beer gives you stronger bones...

If only it was for cider, then it would taste great and be good for your bones aswell!

Now I can quit drinking milk.

Beer as an  alternative to milk? 
 
Yes please, milk is disgusting on it's own.

beer also makes girl's boobs bigger. girl's hormones  and something in the beer that make them get bigger.

I'll stick to milk.

As much as I hate PETA, go here:   http://www.milksucks.com/beersurvey.asp  And read about some of the reasons why Beer (in moderation) is better for you than cow's milk.  You can find many other sources detailing why modern science finds that Milk is not what we were all led to believe as children, but this page happened to suggest beer instead :)  Part of our  livers' function is  specifically made to metabolize alcohol (among other things), and will only be effected negatively by excessive quantities of the stuff.  I'm personally a big fan of beer and will continue to consume it in moderation, while also limiting my milk consumption. "

You probably won't see the effects on your bones from beer in your lifetime though, because you'll probably already be dead from cirrhosis of the liver.

i hope some research comes out that provides evidence for coke making your penis bigger.
 
cos i drink a whoooole lot of coke.

Why do i get the feeling that many people ITT have never gone out drinking...

" i hope some research comes out that provides evidence for coke making your penis bigger.  cos i drink a whoooole lot of coke. "

Beer still tastes like shit. I'll stick to my energy drinks... (Even though they're bad for you)

So that is why my bones are so strong, I love drinking beer and plus Milk is all I drink.

Health risks > health benefits.

Bones become thinner, or less dense as we grow old because it loses calcium and other minerals that make the bones porous, and increases the chance that it might break. Bone density can be measured using a special x-ray, CT scan, or ultrasound. If your bone density is lower than the normal, then you can take steps to increase your bone strength, and reduce your chances of having a fracture.

Beer is a rich source of dietary silicon which plays a major role in bone formation. Silicon is available only in fluids such as water and beer, but not from solid foods. In the study made, beer can contribute to bone mineral density. But the amount of silicon varies by the type of beer.

Some 100 commercial beers were tested by researchers, and they found that their silicon content ranged from 6.4 to 56.5 milligrams per liter. The study wasn’t only about the content of silicon on the beers, but also on the impact of raw materials, and the brewing process on the quantities of silicon that enter wort and beer. According to Charles Bamforth, a professor in the food science and technology department of the University of California, beers containing high levels of malted barley and hops are richest in silicon. Wheat contains less silicon than barley because it is the husk of the barley that is rich in this element. While most of the silicon remains in the husk during brewing, significant quantities of silicon nonetheless are extracted into wort, and much of this survives into beer. So, drinking beer does have its benefits, but it depends on what type of beer. Always remember that anything in excess is bad for your health so drink moderately.   http://quazen.com/recreation/food/for-stronger-bones-drink-beer/ "

I completely read this title as "Drinking Beer Gives You Stronger Boners".  I read through the whole post wondering what happened.

Seriously guys, there isn't any need to flame people for enjoying alcohol.
