Is a continuous function of (integrable) Brownian motion always integrable?

Multi tool use
$begingroup$
Let $Z_{t}=e^{-W(t)}$ with ${W(t):tgeq0}$ a Brownian motion. Is $Z_{t}$ integrable, since it is a continuous function of Brownian motion? Furthermore, are all continuous functions of Brownian motion integrable, since Bownian motion itself is integrable?

Do you meant the integrability in $t$? Then yes, any continuous function is (locally) integrable.

Yes, for a fixed $t$. So, my question: is the expectation of a continuous function of Brownian motion always finite implying that this function is integrable?

"For a fixed $t$" means integrability in $omega$, not in $t$. See the response of Kavi Rama Murthy.

Continuous functions of integrable functions need not be intergable. In this case we can use the fact that if $X$ is normally distributed then $Ee^{cX}$ is integrable for any constant $c$. In fact $Ee^{cX}=e^{cmu} e^{sigma^{2}c^{2}/2}$ where $mu$ is the mean and $sigma^{2}$ the variance.

$e^{-W_t}$ is integrable: $Ee^{-W_t}=e^{frac{1}{2}t}$.
Other continuous functions of $W_t$ need not be integrable. For example, $e^{W_1^2}$.
