LONDON (Reuters) – Wine drinkers have healthier diets than people who prefer beer, according to research reported by Danish scientists on Friday.
They tend to buy more fruits, vegetables, olives, low fat cheese and cooking oil than beer drinkers who are more likely to consume ready meals, soft drinks, sugar, sausages, lamb and butter or margarine.
“This study indicates that people who buy wine purchase a greater number of healthy food items than those who buy beer,” said Professor Morten Gronbaek of the National Institute of Public Health in Copenhagen. He and his team looked at what Danish consumers who drink beer, wine, both, or only non-alcoholic beverages buy in supermarkets. They analyzed 3.5 million transactions in their study, which is reported in the British Medical Journal.
Although the research was confined to Danish consumers, Gronbaek said studies in the United States and France produced similar results.
Gronbaek said wine drinkers tend to be educated, healthy and lean or they are middle-aged women who drink moderately while beer drinkers are less educated, healthy young men who have a higher alcohol intake.

9:40pm in the HartsfieldJacksonMartinLutherKingLudacrisHolyfield airport. Just flew in from Naples (and boy are my arms tired!) Naples FL that is. Had to go down to the Ritz Carlton for the weekend to work on a client project. Cold (’bout 55) and windy, but sunny. Had planned to work by the pool but it was too cold. Wait.I think I hear lots of whining from the readers. Life’s a bitch. So, if you are sharp you are wondering why Unk T is in the ATL airport on my lap instead of driving home. Logical question. I am on my way to STL for a meeting tomorrow morning and was routed thru ATL with a 2 hour layover. Life’s a bitch. Continue reading “Tommy Thots”
