Popis: Whole grains are rich in nutrients and antioxidants and can be fermented to increase their biological functions. This study used two fermentation steps to ferment eight whole grains. The bio-functional compounds, ACE inhibition, and antioxidant capacity were measured during the second fermentation step. The results indicate that the total phenols content increased by 2605%, total flavonoid content increased by 1707%, ABTS radical scavenging capacity increased by 239%, DPPH radical scavenging capacity increased by 325%, GABA increased by 4810%, glucuronic acid increased by 4278%, ACE inhibition increased by 69.28%, and total amino acids increased by 2197.72% after 13 weeks of fermentation. These results showed that a fermentation beverage with eight whole grains could be considered a drink with health benefits.
