Beer lovers have the luck to eat. The University of Singapore developed the world's first probiotic beer.
Zhong Yuan doesn't forget his health at the expense of Hou Changming. You know: Red quinoa, chicken drops and canned corn. Sci-tech periodicals: The reason why eating dietary fiber can make people healthier lies in intestinal microbes ... Smart health care can reverse hyperglycemia and defeat the century killer. Diabetic malnutrition complicated with sarcopenia, patients with heart and kidney sugar fall into a vicious circle. The temperature has hit record highs, and cold beer is one of many people's favorite enjoyment in summer. These beer lovers have a good time! The research team of the National University of Singapore (NUS) recently announced the launch of a novel probiotic beer, which may make beer lovers fondle admiringly. This special beer contains a kind of lactobacillus paracasei, which originally exists in human intestines and has the functions of improving intestinal health and regulating immunity.

There are many dairy products and drinks containing probiotics on the market today. The benefits of probiotics are well known, but there is no probiotic beer. Chan Mei Zei, a researcher in the food science program of the National University of Singapore, is a fan who often takes probiotics. She pointed out: "Although probiotics usually exist in fermented foods, there is no probiotic beer on the market, because hops acids in beer inhibit the growth of probiotics, which inspires us to cultivate enough probiotics in beer. It is quite challenging to try to develop beer containing probiotics by manipulating this acid. 」

At present, the suggestion of the International Association of Probiotics and Beneficiaries is that in order to achieve the best health benefits, each food should contain at least 654.38 billion probiotics. It took the research team of the National University of Singapore nine months to find an ideal method to achieve the optimal amount of live probiotics in beer. In addition to modifying the traditional brewing and fermentation methods, they chose to use lactic acid bacteria as probiotics and use the sugar in malt to produce sour lactic acid, thus producing sour and astringent beer.

The professor in charge of guiding Chan Mei Zei said: The demand for adding probiotics to food and drinks is increasing gradually, and the consumption of brewing beer is also quite large in recent years. The invention of this probiotic beer caters to these two trends. In the future, it is believed that probiotic beer friendly to intestines will be widely accepted by the public, enjoy beer and stay healthy. At present, researchers have obtained patents, beware of others copying its formula and try to put it on the market commercially.

Modern people's diet is mostly processed food. Probiotics can eliminate toxins from the whole stomach, which is a well-known effect. It can promote intestinal flora balance, improve intestinal health, help digestion, improve diarrhea, prevent intestinal diseases, improve respiratory tract and skin allergy, reduce blood pressure and serum cholesterol concentration, and even relieve symptoms of depression and anxiety. Different strains have different functions! Therefore, modern people with unbalanced diet, people who often stay up late, people with allergies and poor immune function should replenish good bacteria in time, inhibit bad bacteria, create a healthy intestinal environment as soon as possible and prevent diseases.

However, Zhan Yilin, an assistant professor in the Department of Life Sciences of Taiwan Province Culture University, said that some probiotic products on the market promote a large number of bacteria, but they are not necessarily helpful to the body. Because the human intestine can only colonize a certain number of beneficial bacteria, too many beneficial bacteria will affect the role of probiotics, allowing strains to compete for living space and not play their due role. She said: The most suitable number of bacteria is between 2 billion and 654.38+0 billion. If it exceeds the product of 65.438+0 billion strains, the colonization rate of the strains is doubtful.
