The Health Benefits of Beer Photo by Brad on Unsplash Beer May Help You Live Longer Bob Slavonic, 102 years old, says drinking Coors Light regularly has helped him to live a long, healthy life. Photo from FoxNews.com . A doctor walks into his consultation room and sits down at his computer. He reviews the information he has received from this current client's annual physical. He turns to the patient and, in a matter-of-fact way, delivers the results of the physical:      "Technically, your cholesterol is high. But, your HDLs far outweigh your LDLs.
