Brewers Yeast is a yeast which is used in the brewing of top-fermenting beer and is also eaten as a source of vitamin B.
Brewer's yeast is made from a one-celled fungus called Saccharomyces cerevisiae and is used to make beer. It also can be grown to make nutritional supplements.
Brewer's yeast is a rich source of minerals -- particularly chromium, an essential trace mineral that helps the body maintain normal blood sugar levels; selenium; protein; and the B-complex vitamins.
It tastes slightly bitter and should not be confused with baker's yeast, nutritional yeast, or torula yeast. All those types of yeast are low in chromium.
Brewer's yeast has been used for years as a nutritional supplement.
