Natures Choice Brewers Yeast
Brewers' yeast is a single celled fungus called Saccharomyces cerevisiae, and is the byproduct of brewing beer from grains. The result is a strong bitter flavour, from an noninfectious yeast that has no leavening power, but that does have many health giving benefits.
Brewers yeast provides a unique cocktail of nutrients, and has earned the well deserved reputation of being a 'general tonic'. Brewers Yeast is rich in vitamins, such as the Vitamin B complex, 14 minerals, including potassium, magnesium, selenium, zinc and chromium, and all the essential amino acids. Brewers Yeast also contains considerable amounts of nucleic acid, which inspires cell formation, and is low in carbohydrates, fats, and sodium.
Some of the health benefits that have been noted are reduced stress, more restful sleep, more energy, and better metabolism.
Brewers Yeast stabilizes blood sugar levels by improving glucose tolerance, and lowers cholesterol by improving 'good' to 'bad' fat ratios in the blood. These benefits are thought to be largely due to the chromium content in Brewers Yeast.
Another claim is that it supports healthy probiotic levels in the gut, and therefore digestion.
Simply sprinkle a tablespoon of this tonic powder over your meals such as stews, cereals, or soups. Alternatively you can mix it into your fruit juice. What ever you do, do not cook with it, as heat will destroy the important B vitamins.
