Introduction

Since human being’s ancestors began bipedal locomotion, they understood which foods are safe, poisonous, or toxic, and which foods are important to keep their health, and obtained their knowledges of conservation methods of foods, to make processed foods, like cheese, butter, as well as beverages, such as red and white wine, and beer, and succeeded in the production of essential oils including many kinds of monoterpenoids which have been used not only in food preservation but also as some drugs and food additives and in aromatherapy. Now we have many kinds of different foods and processed foods, sports and alcoholic, and non-alcoholic
