Nutritional
Yeast Information
|
| Red Star® nutritional yeast
is an excellent source of protein, dietary fiber, vitamins and minerals.
Lesaffre Yeast Corporation derives its primary grown nutritional yeast
from pure strains of Saccharomyces cerevisiae grown on mixtures of cane
and beet molasses. After the fermentation process is completed the yeast
is harvested, thoroughly washed, pasteruized, and dried on roller drum
dryers. The special growth medium and unique drying process are the
secrets to the exceptional performance and flavor of Red Star®
nutritional yeast. |
| Red Star®
nutritional yeast is grown specifically for its nutritive value. In
addition to protein, dietary fiber, vitamins and minerals, it contains
additional functional and beneficial components such as beta-1,3 glucan,
trehalose, mannan and glutathione. Studies have show that these
components have potential health benefits such as, improved immune
response, reduction of cholesterol, and anti-cancer properties. Red Star®
nutritional yeast is not made from by-products of breweries,
distilleries or paper mills. Red Star®
nutritional yeast is not a genetically
modified organism (GMO). Red Star®
nutritional yeast contains no added sugars or preservatives. Best when stored
in a cool, dry place. |
B-Complex
Vitamins
|
| The
B-complex vitamins are essential to the wellness of body, mind, and
spirit. Thiamin
(B1) deficiency can lead to hand and foot numbness as well as damage to
the central nervous system. Vegetarians, diabetics, and women taking
birth control pills are highly susceptible to Riboflavin (B2)
deficiency. Niacin (B3). Pyridoxine (B6) is needed for the production of antibodies and red blood
cells, and promotes a normal functioning nervous and musculoskeletal
system.
Cyanocobalamin (B12) helps prevent nerve damage and anemia, aids in cell
and blood formation, proper digestion, fertility and growth. This
vitamin is also helpful during pregnancy and lactation. Vegetarians and
immune compromised individuals are the most at risk of vitamin B12
deficiency. |
History of
Yeast
|
| Yeast belongs to
the same family as edible mushrooms and the beneficial organisms used
for medical and veterinary use. It may be considered man¹s oldest
industrial micro-organism. With the invention of the microscope, it
became possible to isolate yeast in pure culture form. The pioneering
scientific work of Louis Pasteur in the late 1860’s has resulted in
the ability today to commercially produce baker’s yeast, wine yeast,
and nutritional yeast. LesaffreYeast Corporation has been delivering
consistent high quality yeast products for over 100 years. For more than
50 of those years, the company has been manufacturing primary grown
nutritional yeast (Saccharomyces cerevisiae), grown specifically
for its nutritional value. The result has been a high quality product
containing protein composed of essential and non-essential amino acids,
vitamins, and minerals. |
