Item description from seller

Oversized hardcover, xiii + 184 pages, NOT ex-library. Good clean condition with unmarked text, free of inscriptions and stamps, firmly bound. Shelfworn boards. Issued without a dust jacket. -- This book provides a comprehensive analysis of beer in relation to human health and nutrition, combining brewing science with biomedical research. It examines the composition of beer, including carbohydrates, proteins, vitamins, minerals, antioxidants, and trace compounds, and explains how these interact with the human body. Particular attention is given to alcohol metabolism, cardiovascular health, bone density, kidney function, and the potential protective effects of polyphenols. The study reviews both the benefits and the risks associated with moderate consumption, offering balanced discussion of obesity, liver disease, cancer, and other medical concerns. It also situates beer within broader dietary and cultural contexts, comparing its nutritional profile to that of other beverages and fermentations. By integrating brewing technology with health sciences, the book offers insights for food scientists, nutritionists, brewers, and health professionals seeking an informed understanding of beer as part of diet and lifestyle.…
