Resumo(s)
Beer production and consumption have increased, stimulated by the popularity of craft beer. The presence of bioactive compounds in beer is described in the literature, including antioxidants related to benefits to human health. This review discusses, in particular, the potential biological activities of craft beer. Results showed that craft beer could potentially have a beneficial effect on cardiovascular disease, diabetes, cancer, neurological disorders, menopause, osteoporosis and oxidative stress. Also, the addition of new ingredients and production techniques can lead to a beverage with potential health value-added. However, further investigation on the health potential of craft beer is needed.
