Overview

Beer has been around since the tail end of the Stone Age, and it's more popular than ever in the 21st Century as the craft brewing industry explodes across America and beyond. Unfortunately, that creates a problem that beer-lovers tend to wear around their middle. But it doesn't have to be that way. In The Beer Diet: How to Drink Beer and Not Gain Weight, natural health journalist and avid homebrewer Gary Greenberg explains how small adjustments in your life can make a huge difference in your waistline, and your overall health. The Beer Diet not only offers invaluable health tips but also pays homage to the world's most popular beverage and even shows you how to brew your own. Witty, fun and informative, this book is must reading for anyone who enjoys tipping back a few - especially if it's occasionally a few too many!
