Forgot aspirin, replaced with Guinness on this trip.

I managed to not pack my aspirin bottle for this week. So rather than walk one block to Walgreens I am using the Guinness replacement. Don't do this or listen to me, I have no medical training. And since I'm on the 325 one rather than low-dose I assume I need 2-3 pints a day.

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.

  1. And I quote a spokesman for Brewing Research International:
    "We already know that most of the clotting effects are due to the alcohol itself, rather than any other ingredients.

    So we "know" the effects are due to the alcohol, yet there's a difference between stout and lager? Another established medical "fact" debunked.

    Also, I think Guinness actually has a slightly lower alcohol content than lagers.
