I believe it acts as a catalyst for many things; New research has revealed that most of the toxin formaldehyde in our bodies does not come from our environment – it is a by-product of essential reactions inside our own cells. ... This cycle uses a vitamin - folate - to create DNA and essential amino acids, which cells need to function and multiply.

JDDavao II Posted January 30, 2019 Posted January 30, 2019 This is from a few years back but it seems to jibe with other things I found while searching. Is there formaldehyde in beer? - Stackexchange Really, though, there's "chemicals" in everything because everything is chemicals! You probably get a higher dosage of "kill yas" from a good snootful of diesel exhaust coughed out by a bus than from formaldehyde in beer. HOWEVER! I totally agree on certain alcohols affecting different people in different ways. Some get a headache from red wine. Some don't. Some seem to get more drunk on champagne than on the equivalent amount of white wine without the bubbles. I had a terrible, gaseous reaction last week to my own home brew. I found that it's the unfermented sugars which WILL ferment in my rather attractive intestines and make me blow like Moby Dick surfacing. It seems that some home brewers are affected by them and some aren't. Weird. I don't doubt drinkers get headaches for whatever reason but I don't think it's from formaldehyde. Hell, if it is, then I'm gonna be a well-preserved corpse! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
