NUTRITIONAL YEAST PWD 10 OZ - 1

First, it's important to understand that NOW® nutritional yeast powder is not the same as the yeast you might use in bread or beer. It's made from a specially selected strain of Saccharomyces cerevisiae that is grown on purified cane and beet molasses. This primary-grown yeast is not a by-product of the brewing process, which means it's free from Candida albicans yeast that can cause health problems.

NOW® nutritional yeast powder is an excellent source of B-complex vitamins, particularly vitamin B12, which is difficult to obtain from plant-based foods. This vitamin is essential for nerve function and the production of red blood cells, and a deficiency can lead to anemia, fatigue, and neurological problems. The other B-complex vitamins found in nutritional yeast powder, including thiamine, riboflavin, and niacin, play important roles in energy metabolism, immune function, and overall health.

Nutritional yeast powder is also a good source of protein and essential amino acids. It contains all nine of the essential amino acids that the body cannot produce on its own, making it an excellent choice for vegetarians or vegans who may have trouble getting enough protein from their diets. Protein is important for building and repairing tissues, maintaining muscle mass, and supporting healthy immune function.

If you're looking for a simple and delicious way to add essential nutrients to your diet, NOW® nutritional yeast powder is definitely worth trying. It's a high-quality product that is made from a specially selected strain of yeast, and it contains a variety of essential vitamins, protein, and amino acids. Plus, it's easy to incorporate into your meals and can add a pleasant flavor to many dishes. Give it a try and see how it can improve your nutrition and overall health!
