Since [[Low alcohol beer|non-alcoholic beers]] have significantly lower calorie content than normal beers, they are becoming more attractive to a health-conscious consumer.<ref>Krebs G, Müller M, Becker T, Gastl M.

Although ethanol is recognised as a major contributor to cancer diseases, moderate consumption of red wine is known to have some health benefits. The decrease in coronary heart disease observed among wine drinkers despite a diet very rich in saturated fat is known as the “French paradox”.(234) Wine polyphenols and alcohol most probably contribute to this protective effect.(235,236) Beer contains much less polyphenols than wine, although one of its raw materials, hop, is much richer than grapes. The two beverages also show very different polyphenol distributions (e.g., no anthocyanidins in beer but more prenylchalcones).<ref name=calcol>Callemien D, Collin S.
