Health benefits of brewers yeast

Brewers yeast is made from Saccharomyces cerevisiae and in the drying process, becomes deactivated.  It is best known for its high levels of chromium, an important mineral needed for insulin to work properly and thus helps to manage proper blood sugar levels.  Brewers yeast also contains good levels of selenium, a potent anti-oxidant needed to protect cells from damage and is also important in thyroid hormone production.  This tasty savoury powder also has a range of B-vitamins, known for their role in energy production.

In the kitchen

Brewers yeast has a sublty salty, savoury flavour that can be used as a nutritional additive to many of your favourite recipes.  You can add it to soups and casseroles, sprinkle over mashed potato or mix into dips, sauces and spreads.  The savoury taste of Brewers yeast can easily be disguised by other flavours when cooking so try adding it to your cakes, biscuits and muffins to give them a nutrition boost.
