A new analysis of 100 commercial beers shows that the beverage is a significant source of dietary silicon, a key ingredient for bone health.
The silicon content of the beers ranged from 6.4 mg/L to 56.5 mg/L, with an average of 30 mg/L. Two beers are the equivalent of just under a half liter, so a person could get 30 mg of the nutrient from two beers.
