Baijiu, one of the six major distilled spirits in the world and the national liquor of China, boasts a history spanning over 2000 years. Since ancient times, alcoholic beverages have held considerable cultural and medicinal value in China. Research on Baijiu has increasingly focused on its health effects, with its chemical composition central to its functionality. Alterations in endogenous substances following Baijiu consumption may lead to various phenotypic changes. This paper reviews the chemical composition of Chinese Baijiu, its health benefits when consumed in moderation, the detrimental effects of excessive consumption, the changes in endogenous substances post-consumption, and the influence of Baijiu composition on health. This paper aims to guide healthy Baijiu consumption and outline future research directions while offering a systematic reference for producers to improve Baijiu quality.

Fatty acids are catabolized in a process called beta-oxidation, which takes place in the matrix of the mitochondria and converts their fatty acid chains into two-carbon units of acetyl groups. The acetyl...
Factors Affecting Drug Biotransformation: Biological
Species differences: Variations in enzyme systems across species can cause disparities in drug metabolism. For instance, humans may metabolize certain drugs faster than rodents, altering therapeutic effects.
Strain differences: Genetic variations within a species can result in differing enzyme activity, impacting drug response and toxicity. For example, some mouse strains may...
