March 1/Oslo, Norway/PRNewswire -- Nutritionists have revealed a number of surprising facts about some of the most common beverages. According to a recent report very few people know what exactly is contained in what they drink. The truth is the drinking culture is not going away anytime soon, and although people have different preferences when it comes to beverages, the fact is the world loves to drink.
One of the most popular drinks today is actually beer. According to many nutritional experts, beer is not as unhealthy as many people think. The drink which is arguably the most popular beverage in the U.S. and Europe was historically used in the place of water. At the time, historians note that modern water treatment techniques had not been invented, and so a lot of people saw beer as the safest and readily available beverage. According to doctors, regulated consumption of beer is good for the kidneys. In addition to this, beer is fat free, but that does not mean it does not have some calories just like many carbonated drinks.
