Yes it’s true! Not only does beer help the rhythm-challenged boogie like a fool, it’s also been shown to rehydrate an athlete after a hard workout. Scientists at Granada University in Spain tested several individuals who ran on treadmills to the point of exhaustion. After, they tested to see whether beer or water was more effective for rehydrating the human body. Beer won. They believe that the sugars, salts, and bubbles in beer help the human body absorb fluids more quickly than water. We at Wend, of course, have known this for many, many years but are happy to finally have ’scientists’ backing up our intuition. So, drink people, stay hydrated out there.
