In Nivelles we like to do things differently. The Aclote is the first beer blonche worldwide. Do mean that it combines the qualities of a blonde and a white.

Beer Presents

By News On French Beer

It’s official, and it is even scientifically proven: the beer belly is just a myth. Why, how? It is Charles Bamforth, Professor of food science and technology at the Davis University of California and Professor of brewing science. “The main source of calories in any alcoholic beverage is alcohol. There’s nothing magical in alcohol of a beer, it’s just alcohol,”he told the Popular Science website.

So where does this myth? Without any doubt the “beer drinkers absorb more calories”, says Dr. Aliyah Sohani, researcher at the Massachusetts General Hospital. A bottle of beer represents 33 cl of drink on average, against 15 cl for a glass of wine. “You drink a larger quantity than in a glass of wine or hard liquor, so you absorb more calories. One speaks of a difference that can reach hundreds of calories in one evening,”said Aliyah Sohani popular Science.

Stop is goinfrer with its foam

So whence this big belly? Charles Bamforth suggests that the habits of beer drinkers are not foreign. It is common that they accompany their foam of a sausage, chips, peanuts or a hamburger. There is no miracle, isn’t beers which is ‘push’ the belly but about what one eats while drinking beer which contributes.

There is no finally as for extreme drinkers that a protruding abdomen can be explained. This would be a pathology, ascites, i.e. an effusion fluid in the abdomen and more specifically in the peritoneal cavity. This presence of liquid, and not fat, is caused by a liver disease and people suffering from this disease tend to have a protruding belly. The moral of the story? If you have a big belly, he must run to the doctor either to throw the foot on the plate of cold meats or cheese.
