Lyophilized Beer: A Banquet of Bioactive Compounds for Human Health Jairam Vanamala, Ph.D. Assistant Professor Dept. of Food Science and Human Nutrition Colorado State University
Ancient Wisdom – Beer & Health Mouthwash Treatment of wounds Enema Sanitation
What is in the Beer Ethanol Bioactive compounds –Malt – derived –Hop - derived
Beer - Protection Against Mortality oz. or 0.3 L/day - reduces mortality for all causes of death Moderate beer consumption - Beneficial European Journal of Cancer 41(13), 2005
Beer – Bioactive Compounds Malt-derived compounds –Benzoic acid derivatives –Cinnamic acid derivatives –Catechins –Proanthocyanidins –Flavones
Biological Activities Anti-oxidant Anti-microbial Anti-viral Anti-proliferative Anti-platelet Anti-hyperlipidemic Anti-hypersensitive Anti-allergenic Anti-ulcerogenic Anti-neoplastic Anti-inflammatory Anti-atherogenic Anti-hepatotoxic Pro-apoptotic Vasodilator
Beer – Bioactive Compounds Hop-derived compounds –Alpha acids –Essential oils –Prenylflavonoids Xanthohumol Isoxanthohumol 8-prenylnarigenin
(I) Xanthohumol and (II) Isoxanthohumol Xanthohumol and Isoxanthohumol
Xanthohumol Anti- inflammatory activity Anticancer activity Antioxidant activity Anti-obesity activity Anti- microbial activity Estrogenic activity
Is There a Synergy Xanthohumol + Hop- and malt-derived bioactive compounds
How We Test it Colon cancer cells: HCT –Proliferation –Apoptosis
Why Colon Cancer World: 1,000,000 US: 1,50,000 80% Advanced 2 yr survival 80% Diet Related
