Bernama) -- Korea's traditional makgeolli rice wine has been found to have potent anti-cancer properties that are 10-25 times greater than beer and grape wine, Yonhap news agency reported quoting a state-run laboratory as saying Thursday. The Korea Food Research Institute (KFRI) said it detected 150-500 parts per billion (ppb) of farnesol in samples of makgeolli sold on the market, much higher than the 15-20 ppb of the natural organic compound found in laboratory tests conducted on beer and wine.
