'Beer Belly' Linked to Heart Damage in Me

CHICAGO, Dec. 1, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- A large new study using advanced imaging found that abdominal obesity, sometimes referred to as a "beer belly," is associated with more harmful changes in heart structure than overall body weight alone, especially in men. The findings, being presented this week at the annual meeting of the Radiological Society of North America (RSNA), also point to actions patients and doctors can take to identify potential risks and intervene earlier to protect the heart.

"Abdominal obesity, a high waist-to-hip ratio, is associated with more concerning cardiac remodeling patterns than high body mass index (BMI) alone," said study lead author Jennifer Erley, M.D., radiology resident at University Medical Center Hamburg-Eppendorf, Germany. "It appears to lead to a potentially pathological form of cardiac remodeling, concentric hypertrophy, where the heart muscle thickens but the overall size of the heart doesn't increase, leading to smaller cardiac volumes. In fact, the inner chambers become smaller, so the heart holds and pumps less blood. This pattern impairs the heart's ability to relax properly, which eventually can lead to heart failure." Taking into account BMI, a measure of general obesity calculated from a person's weight and height, and waist-to-hip ratio (WHR), a measure of abdominal obesity, the researchers studied cardiovascular MRI images of 2,244 adults aged 46 to 78 (43% female) without known cardiovascular disease. Abdominal obesity reflects an accumulation of visceral fat, which is stored deep around internal organs and strongly linked to harmful cardiovascular effects. All of the study participants are part of the ongoing Hamburg City Health Study, a long-term population study in Germany. According to BMI, 69% of males and 56% of females in the study were overweight or obese. Using WHR, 91% of the males and 64% of females met the World Health Organization (WHO) criteria for obesity. General obesity based on BMI was more often linked to enlarged heart chambers across all participants. Abdominal obesity was associated with thickening of the heart muscle and smaller heart chamber volumes. These changes were more prominent in men, particularly in the right ventricle, which pumps blood to the lungs. This may reflect early cardiac stress on the heart related to how abdominal fat affects breathing and lung pressure. Obesity also was linked to subtle heart tissue changes in men, detectable only with advanced cardiac MRI, potentially signaling early heart stress before symptoms or diagnosable disease. These associations persisted even after accounting for other cardiovascular risk factors, including arterial hypertension, smoking, diabetes and cholesterol. "The sex-specific differences suggest that male patients may be more vulnerable to the structural effects of obesity on the heart, a finding not widely reported in earlier studies," Dr. Erley said. "Rather than focusing on reducing overall weight, middle-aged adults should focus on preventing abdominal fat accumulation through regular exercise, a balanced diet and timely medical intervention, if necessary." The more extensive heart damage seen in men could be due to an earlier onset of more severe abdominal obesity, or the cardioprotective effect of estrogen in women, Dr. Erley said, though more research is needed. With a tape measure, anyone can calculate their WHR at home by dividing their waist circumference at its narrowest point by their hip circumference at its widest point. A ratio above 0.90 for men and 0.85 for women is an indicator of abdominal obesity and is associated with increased risk of cardiovascular disease, according to the WHO. The authors also encourage clinicians to be proactive in checking and flagging abdominal obesity early on to improve health outcomes. "From the perspective of a radiologist, when we see this cardiac remodeling pattern, we currently think of cardiomyopathy, hypertensive heart disease or some other form of disease, but we don't clinically draw the line to obesity in our reports," Dr. Erley said. "This study should alert radiologists and cardiologists to be more aware that this remodeling could be attributed independently to obesity." Co-authors are Jonas H.

SKIP THE MILK, RAISE A PINT FOR THE HOLIDAYS INSTEAD! GUINNESS AND LAST CRUMB DELIVER THE SEASON'S MOST ICONIC PAIRING

This season, Guinness is reimagining holiday traditions through flavor – pairing its iconic pour with handcrafted Last Crumb cookies for the Most Wonderful Pint of the Year.

NEW YORK, Nov. 18, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- 'Tis the season to be pairing Guinness and cookies! Today, the iconic brewer joins forces with cult-favorite bakery Last Crumb for a limited-edition cookie collection that's meant to be shared with the people who matter most, uniting beer lovers and cookie connoisseurs for their Most Wonderful Pint of the Year. The collection features six cookies – three baked with the signature flavor of Guinness and three Last Crumb classics crafted to pair perfectly with your pint. Every flavor was chosen to bring out the best in the iconic stout from rich toffee and nostalgic sticky pudding to playful milkshake, banana cream, peanut butter, and birthday cake. When enjoyed alongside a pint, they're the kind of pairing that makes grown-ups believe in magic all over again. Kicking things off with the cookies baked with the unforgettable flavor of Guinness: Pub Cookie: This Guinness Chocolate Chip creation combines the roasted flavor of Guinness Draught with buttery toffee and dark chocolate. Twist & Stout: One of the most beloved Irish pub traditions is adding fruit syrup — usually black currant — to a pint for a sweetened twist. This Guinness Raspberry Cocoa Milkshake cookie takes that same twist, blending the flavor of silky smooth stout with tart, juicy fruit to create pure magic. Not Your Nan's: This Guinness Sticky Toffee Pudding cookie takes notes of nostalgic toffee bliss and classic pudding and pairs it with the depth of Guinness Draught. Serve it warm, add vanilla ice cream, drizzle on the butterscotch and thank us later. Next up, Guinness is featuring three fan-favorite Last Crumb cookie flavors that pair perfectly with a pint: The Barrel Roll: A banana cream pie masterpiece that captures chaotic ingenuity through velvety layered flavors of banana, white chocolate, and cream — crafted to complement the roasted depth and creamy smoothness of Guinness. A pairing built on texture as much as taste. Peanut Butter Guinness Time: The roasted barley in Guinness gives off a gentle nuttiness that finds its match in this peanut butter cookie. This rich, holiday-ready combination layers chocolatey notes and roasted warmth into perfect harmony. Midnight Snack: Soft, buttery, and sweet, this birthday cake cookie leans nostalgic — until Guinness steps in. The stout's roasted bitterness cuts through the sugar, resets the palate, and keeps the moment going bite after bite. For this collaboration, we've brought classic Guinness advertising magic back to life on a special edition tin featuring some of the brand's most memorable characters. It's a tribute to the artistry that made Guinness more than just a beer, but a cultural icon – and a holiday collectible to hold onto long after the cookies (and tinsel) are gone. "We've always believed the best part of the holidays isn't what's on the table but who's around it," said Karissa Downer, Director, Guinness. "Partnering with Last Crumb lets us turn that idea into something everyone can share – a pint, a cookie and a holiday celebration that's full of flavor. Together, we've created a new kind of holiday ritual, one that's all about enjoying something special with your friends and family." The first Guinness x Last Crumb Holiday Cookie Drop lands soon — available now for pre-order at lastcrumb.com/products/last-crumb-x-guinness for $120, with nationwide shipping beginning November 24. Each order includes six handcrafted cookies, a collectible holiday tin, and two 16 oz Guinness glasses. To enjoy Guinness alongside the collection, visit guinness.com/wheretobuy to find retailers near you. And if you miss the pre-order window, don't worry – two more restocks are scheduled for December 2 and December 16. Turns out, good things still come to those who wait — but be sure to grab the collection while you can, because it won't be around for long.  Derek Jager, Last Crumb Founder said, "This is easily one of the top collabs we've ever worked on. Guinness has such a great flavor profile to use as a base for cookies, we immediately knew one flavor would not do the collaboration justice. We set out to create three iconic flavors, using different ingredients that pair exceptionally with Guinness. From dark chocolate, to raspberries, to dates and toffee, we wanted to create an unique experience with each cookie. Every bite can also be accentuated with a cold Guinness, and that is exactly how we recommend the cookies be enjoyed!" MORE WAYS TO RAISE A PINT THIS SEASON Throughout the holidays, Guinness is finding new ways for people to share The Most Wonderful Pint of the Year. The Guinness Holiday Pop-Up – Guinness is making it snow in Vegas this December with a magical holiday pop-up!

Ohio Breweries Set New State Record at Great American Beer Festival

DENVER – Ohio has once again proven itself as a beer destination and has the hardware to prove it. Eleven of Ohio's independent craft breweries brought home a combined 21 medals at the prestigious Great American Beer Festival competition. Ohio's best showing at the annual event was in 2023, when 12 breweries combined for 19 awards. Held annually, more than 1,550 breweries from across the country submitted 8,300 of their best beers in hopes of earning national recognition.

Fat Head's Brewery earned a Brewery of the Year award in the 15,001-100,000 barrel division, bringing home five medals — two gold, one silver and two bronze — adding to their impressive medal count from the Great American Beer Festival. Since 2009, the Middleburg Heights brewery has won a whopping 35 medals at the annual competition. Goggle Fogger hefeweizen won its third gold medal in the past six years, while Battle Axe strong porter followed up its 2025 World Beer Cup gold award with a gold medal at GABF as well.

Cincinnati's Third Eye Brewing also took home a Brewery of the Year award, earning the most medals among breweries in the 2,001-5000 barrel division. Making their best showing at the event, Third Eye earned  two gold medals and one silver medal, as well as two collaboration beer medals: a gold with Hamilton, Ohio's Municipal Brew Works and a bronze with Narrow Path Brewing of Loveland, Ohio. Higher Consciousness earned a gold medal in the Scotch Ale category after also winning in gold at the 2025 World Beer Cup, while Gourd Darn It! improved its 2023 silver showing with a 2025 gold in the Pumpkin Beer category.

Brink Brewing continued their medal streak at the Great American Beer Festival with gold medals for Moozie in the Sweet Stout or Cream Stout category and Lil Zoomie in the Coffee Stout or Porter category. Moozie continues to rack up awards, earning a total of four gold and two bronze medals at the annual competition, in addition to a World Beer Cup gold award earlier in 2025 and a bronze award in 2018. Lil Zoomie, a coffee infused cousin of Moozie, finished just ahead of Third Eye's coffee stout, Wired Euphoria, which earned silver in the category. Brink has won at least one medal in each year of Great American Beer Festival competition since the brewery’s founding in 2017.

Gemüt Biergarten in Columbus and Rhinegeist Brewery in Cincinnati each made repeat trips to the medal stand at the 2025 competition, with each brewery taking home both a silver and a bronze. In addition to the collaboration bronze shared with Third Eye, Narrow Path Brewing earned their own silver medal for Polar Bear in the Coffee Beer category. 

Streetside Brewery in Cincinnati earned their second consecutive gold medal at the competition, this time for Sofa King, narrowly besting Bone Head from Fat Head's in the Strong Red Ale category.

Forbidden Root's Columbus brewery earned its first ever medal in the competition, a gold for Festhalle Munich-style Helles, just edging out crosstown friends Gemüt Biergarten in the category.

Northwest Ohio was represented on the medal stand by Inside the Five Brewing, earning a silver for Prepare for Glory English Ale. This is the Toledo brewery's second medal at the competition after winning a silver in 2023.

JAFB Brewery in Wooster earned their sixth GABF award, with their Hefeweizen bringing home a bronze medal in the same category for which Fat Head's earned gold for Goggle Fogger.

Since 1987, 65 Ohio craft breweries have combined to win 230 medals – 81 gold – at the Great American Beer Festival.

"This is a banner day for Ohio craft beer," said Mary MacDonald, executive director of the Ohio Craft Brewers Association.
