Brewer´s yeast Brewer´s yeast is the by-product resulting from the fermentation of beer by the bacterium Saccharomyces cerevisae. To obtain debittered yeast, the yeast resulting from brewing is purified, removing waxes and other non-nutritive products. Brewer´s yeast is used for its high nutritional value; it is rich in proteins (50%), carbohydrates (35%), minerals (10%) and B-complex vitamins. First, the proteins it contains are of high biological value. It provides both essential and non-essential amino acids. For example, the aspartic acid content helps protect the liver from possible poisoning, particularly by ammonium derivatives. Second, the carbohydrates it contains are compounds, that is, polysaccharides, some of them fibers (cellulose) and other slowly absorbed carbohydrates, which means continuous energy without increasing the glycemic index. Third, in minerals the content of potassium and phosphorus is important, and to a lesser extent, magnesium, selenium, calcium and manganese. Finally, brewer´s yeast contains significant amounts of B complex vitamins, particularly B1 (thiamine). B complex vitamins are essential for the enzymatic reactions of proteins, carbohydrates and lipids. The only downside to yeast is its bitter taste, however by debittering the yeast the consumer has all the nutrients without the unpleasant taste. How to use: Take 4-5 tablets a day, between meals.
