In the 1600s, monks would fast by only drinking beer during their 40-day fast for Lent. The beer had an “unusually strong” concoction, full of carbohydrates and nutrients. In 2011, a journalist attempted to recreate the fast by concocting the exact same beer. He ended up losing 25 lbs by only drinking beer.
