So I know there are a lot of different compounds in fruit that are good for you like all the vitamins and minerals plus all the various phytochemicals. What I am curious about is if anyone knows of any research that has been done as to how much of these various compounds makes it through fermentation and into wine or beer or cider for that matter.
 
Nutritional Values:
Alcohol is 7 calories. Protien and Carbs are 5 (each), Fat is 9. So i guess it gets its own catagory.
Alcohol can preserve food. heh more ready food has a significantly greater nutritional value than less ready food.

I think UC Davis has a fermentation program, it might be a good place to further your investigation. Doubtless, they've studied and documented all kinds of solids, residual, and molecular characteristics of all sorts and stages of fermentation. How one would access that information is a little bit of a mystery...
