Unlocking the Potential of Brewers’ Spent Grain: A Sustainable Model to Use Beer for Better Outcome in Chronic Kidney Disease
The rising global incidence of chronic inflammatory diseases calls for innovative and sustainable medical solutions. Brewers’ spent grain (BSG), a byproduct of beer production, presents a unique opportunity in this regard. This review explores the multifaceted health benefits of BSG, with a focus on managing chronic kidney disease (CKD). BSG is identified as a potent prebiotic with potential as a therapeutic agent in CKD. We emphasize the role of gut dysbiosis in CKD and discuss how BSG could help mitigate metabolic derangements resulting from dysbiosis and CKD.
