Body: <p>I have heard from many people that beer helps to improve muscles.  Generally one way to improve muscle is by exercise (maybe dance, gym, games).  As far as I know, beer (alcohol) is a diuretic, which makes kidney produce more urine, so drinking beer too much can lead to dehydration.  So the combination of beer and exercise (sweating) would lead to a worse condition. </p>
  
  <p>So my question's are:</p>
  
  <ul>
  <li>Does it really help to improve muscle?</li>
  <li>If it does, then how?  And when should it can be taken?  Before or after exercise?</li>
  </ul>

Comments.Text: In theory, the private beta is for filling the site up with a small number of expert-level questions. Then, when the public beta starts, experts who weren't involved at first see this great new place, and start to join up. The presence of experts then attracts interested non-experts. Since we're at the very beginning of the public beta, this could go either way. I'm not trying to make a decision for you, just provide some background so you and other community members can work it out. Perhaps bring it up on [the meta site](http://meta.beer.stackexchange.com/)?

Title: Does beer really help to improve muscles?

ThreadText: # Does beer really help to improve muscles?
  
  (Asked by: username_0 on 2014-01-29)
  
  I have heard from many people that beer helps to improve muscles. Generally one way to improve muscle is by exercise (maybe dance, gym, games). As far as I know, beer (alcohol) is a diuretic, which makes kidney produce more urine, so drinking beer too much can lead to dehydration. So the combination of beer and exercise (sweating) would lead to a worse condition.
  
  So my question's are:
  
  * Does it really help to improve muscle?
  * If it does, then how? And when should it can be taken? Before or after exercise?
