N/a Beer for Juicing Abdominal Pain

Non-alcoholic beer remedy
Years ago I began to drink large amounts of fruit or vegetable juices like grape or V-8 or tomato juice, but the acid content eventually began to irritate my bowels. At one point my body could no longer tolerate those juices getting severe intestinal pains if I took any amount.
Then I began drinking juices together with non-alcoholic beer and found that, amazingly, I could drink unlimited amounts of juices that way without any problem whatsoever. I don't know what it is about beer that mitigates the effects of the acid in juices but I have been mixing the two and drinking them for many years now with no ill effects whatsoever. In fact, I find the taste of the combination to be superior to the taste of either one alone. The best way to do it is to mix the juice together (maybe about 25% to 50% beer) but they can be taken separately too.

I have read several studies that show that alcohol opens your cells up to better absorb whatever you are consuming. That is why smokers that drink are more prone to throat cancer that non drinking smokers. But I would assume that juicing with alcohol could be beneficial if you do not have alcoholic tendencies. My husband will sometimes do a tequila shot in the evening when we juice. I would not recommend it, but it does make you wonder if he is getting more benefit...

Except that Alcohol is one of the most potent carcinogens known to man, and that one serve of alcohol a day, dramatically increases your risk of numerous cancers and diseases.

How would you describe the flavor? Can a nice mild Vidalia be used or are the massive hot yellow onions better?

Onion is from the same family as garlic, chicory, leeks, and can help with many things.
