Guinness could really be good for you
A pint of the black stuff a day may work as well as a low dose aspirin to prevent heart clots that raise the risk of heart attacks.Drinking lager does not yield the same benefits, experts from University of Wisconsin told a conference in the US.
Or would you rather trust the FDA?
FDA Reverses Its Position on Daily Aspirin
On its website, the FDA now says:
“FDA has concluded that the data do not support the use of aspirin as a preventive medication by people who have not had a heart attack, stroke or cardiovascular problems, a use that is called ‘primary prevention.’ In such people, the benefit has not been established but risks — such as dangerous bleeding into the brain or stomach — are still present.”- See more at: http://healthimpactnews.com/2014/fda-reverses-its-position-on-daily-aspirin/#sthash.mxTed48d.dpuf

If the universe is just, a couple of Miller longnecks every day will be of some benefit, too.
