Tequila is the healthiest "mainstream" liquor (or at least 100% blue agave tequila is).

>healthiest of alcoholic bevs?
Any of the main, 40% liquors (rum,tequila,whiskey,vodka) that don't have anything added to it after distilling are the same in terms of "health"
If you get into nitty gritty little differences that absolutely make no difference but will get wine moms to click your clickbait article, tequila (real tequila) is the healthiest, as it has trace compounds of some shit another that's protective
Now, if you move outside liquor- red wine appears to have some healthy properties, so order of "healthiest" is probably
-red wine
-tequila
everything else
*in general*, the rum making process is okay with added sugars (its considered fine), so some rums have added sugars to them, so if we're making sweeping generalizations rum might technically be a little below the grouping of vodka/whiskey/whatever, but there are a shit-ton of rums that don't have added sugar

It's certainly the cheapest. I can get a 1.75L bottle for $15 and get drunk off my ass. I don't recommend that you drink the whole bottle, it'll kill you unless you're a high tolerance alcoholic and drink it over the course of an entire day.

Even the "healthiest of alcoholic beverages" is still extremely unhealthy. Not to mention, alcohol is 7 Calories per gram, and that's not even counting the extra calories form the sugar in those drinks.

For reference:
Carbs = 4 Calories/gram
Protein = 4 Calories/gram
Alcohol = 7 Calories/gram
Fat = 9 Calories/gram

strangely enough, its not. unaged tequila is.

“Quality tequila (made from 100-percent agave) comes in at my top pick for the healthiest hard liquor,” Friedman says. “Unlike most other hard liquors, tequila doesn’t spike your blood sugar, which means even people with type 2 diabetes can drink it — in fact, it may even lower glucose levels and increase insulin production.” Tequila is also relatively low in calories. “One shot of tequila contains only 63 calories, compared to the 96 calories in a shot of vodka,” Friedman says.

Tequila is also one of the more gut-friendly hard liquors, according to Friedman, since it contains dietary fiber and probiotics (although both studies and experts emphasize that tequila is absolutely not a good source of probiotics). “Tequila also contains fructans, which have potent immune-boosting properties,” Friedman explains, adding that fructans have been developed into drug-carriers that help treat various colon diseases. Friedman also mentions that tequila is gluten-free, since it contains no wheat or barley.

The most surprising part? “One of the best attributes of tequila is its ability to minimize hangovers,” Friedman insists. “The primary cause of hangovers are called congeners, which are byproduct of fermentation and aging, making them more prevalent in barrel-aged spirits (such as brandy, whisky or wine). Tequila made from 100-percent blue agave, however, has fewer congeners than brown hard liquors.”

It makes zero sense for tequila to be healthier than vodka.

All hard liquor is just ethanol and water with very small amount of cogeners. Vodka has NONE, it's literally just ethanol and water.

[Anonymous No.14243683]

>>14242853
the only real stance in this article is the fact that vodka has more caloric content and less probiotics and fiber and shit compared to tequila. vodka is not 'worse' by any real margin.

[Anonymous No.14243697]

>>14239040
It depends on your definition of healthy. It's healthy in the sense of delivering the fewest calories per standard drink, but it also delivers no other nutrients. Red wine is possibly the alcoholic beverage with the highest quantity of antioxidants. Maybe that makes it the healthiest? "Healthy" really is a rather vague term. The only certainty is that alcohols themselves are unhealthy chemicals to ingest (but quite a healthy form of surface disinfectant.)

Not really anon, its too easy to drink too much because it's so concentrated and most people drink with either a chaser or mixed.

I'd say red wine is a drink i'd never abuse so its probably the healthiest

The thing in wine that has health benefits is a red pigment found in the skin of grapes, so red wine, which is made with grape skins is better than white wine

Jesus drank wine, and alcohol is objectively good for you in limited amounts. (they used it as an antiseptic, to treat colds and flu, and it also helps deter ulcers, and the romans soaked bandages in wine before applying them)

Stouts and heavy trappist ales feel the healthiest to me, vodka always makes me feel bad both the buzz and the after-effects mentally after a binge.

Maybe not healthy, but the cheapest in dollars and the cheapest calorically. Beyond that, because it's so damn cheap you can easily get blasted and ruin your body, which is much more unhealthy than something like beer which will just make you fat and piss a lot.

[Anonymous No.14248183]

>>14243935
Yes, it is. It has more anti-oxidants by a huge margin, but not as healthy as actual grapes.

[Anonymous No.14248193]

>>14239040
Depends how you define healthier.
Not too much bad stuff (besides alcohol)? Then probably blanc tequila.
Lots of goods regardless of bads? Probably red wine or some whiskies. I can't recall which, but some whiskies actually have compounds in them that makes them relatively healthy.
