i hope so as i drink a lot of it but is it really good for you ?
I also like Marmite ( Yeast extract ) and HP sauce ( Brown sauce ). Are they connected in any way ?

Like everything else Guinness is good for you in moderation. I've never tasted Marmite but I love Bovril and adore HP Brown sauce in a bacon sandwich- SWEET!!!

Yes in moderation its very good for you as it contains a lot of iron.
Even now when people have a severe lack of iron in their diet they are told to drink some Guinness by doctors
It still is bad for you if you drink a lot of it as it contains about 300 calories per pint and still pickles your liver

yep all those things are very good for you. They used to advertise guinness as being good for you. and many people laugh at this now. However it is full of iron which is very good for you, esp. if your a vegetarian and don't get iron from meat.
And anyway I always feel better after a guinness, lol.

Guinness contains a lot of iron, so if you have a deficiency then it can be good for you. But with alcohol I think the the key word is moderation........boring but true.

A pint of the black stuff a day may work as well as an aspirin to prevent heart clots that raise the risk of heart attacks

They say you can crap through the eye of a needle from 30 yards after you have had 4 pints of it so it must be a good laxative.

Drinking a lot of any alcoholic beverage is bad for your health. VERY dehydrating to the body, bad for the liver and bad for your brain cells.

i heard that if you drink 32 pints of Guinness and eat three oranges a day there is enough nutrients to keep you alive.... may have nasty side effects like bad wind, dead liver and black poo!

Yes, One a day is good for you. My grandmother drank one a day, she lived to be 104 years old.
