You’ve probably noticed six-packs labeled “non-alcoholic” at stores for the past few decades. But these watered-down versions of traditional beer were usually tasteless and were mainly marketed toward people focused on sobriety. Now the non-alcoholic beer movement has picked up.
As the taste has drastically improved, one question remains - is non-alcoholic beer healthier and better for you?
We explain.

Does non-alcoholic beer have alcohol?
In short, it depends. The U.S. Food and Drug Administration allows non-alcoholic beer to legally contain up to 0.5% alcohol. By comparison, a typical light beer contains 3.2% alcohol.
Non-alcoholic beer isn’t necessarily good for you because it still has calories and carbohydrates - but it is fewer than regular beer.
Alcohol is a toxin, so any way to limit the amount of alcohol in your body is a healthier choice. Many people have turned to non-alcoholic beer to cut back on their alcohol intake for dietary reasons or to better their mental health.
Also- making the switch from beer to non-alcoholic beer may help improve any alcohol-related sleep issues and drinking non-alcoholic beer may indirectly have some ties to improvements in your diet.
For expecting moms, you should refrain from drinking non-alcoholic beer while you’re pregnant. That goes for any quantity of alcohol, as even small amounts can lead to pregnancy complications and other developmental issues.
But you can drink mocktails or alcohol-free beer that has 0.0 percent alcohol clearly labeled on the packaging.
