Beer in Health and Disease Prevention
About this book
Beer in Health and Disease Prevention, Second Edition continues to be the single most comprehensive volume needed to understand beer and beer-related science. Presenting both the concerns and problems of beer consumption as well as the emerging evidence of benefit, the book offers a balanced view of today's findings and the potential of tomorrow's research. Users will find content on the benefits and concerns associated with consumption of beer and beer ingredients on cancers, cardiovascular disease, antioxidant benefits, and other health related concerns. This is an essential reference for researchers studying alcoholic beverages, beer brewing, nutrition, and public health. Dieticians and clinicians, as well as those working in the beer brewing industry, will also benefit from this invaluable resource. Just as wine in moderation has been proposed to promote health, research is showing that beer – and the ingredients in beer – can have similar impact on improving health, and in some instances preventing disease.
