Dietitian's Tips for Consuming Brewer's Yeast

  • Metabolic Effect: Thanks to its high B vitamin content, brewer's yeast contributes to energy metabolism and helps the nervous system work regularly. At the same time, thanks to its fiber content, it supports digestion and provides a feeling of fullness.
  • Consumption Recommendation: It is usually used as a supplement and can be added to foods or drinks. It can be consumed by sprinkling it on yogurt, smoothies or salads. It is enough to consume 1-2 teaspoons per day.
  • Things to Consider: Excessive consumption may cause gas and bloating in some people. Those with gout or high uric acid levels should not consume it without consulting a doctor. One teaspoon of brewer's yeast has a nutritional value equivalent to about one slice of whole wheat bread.
  • Exercise Equivalent: To burn the calories you get from one teaspoon of brewer's yeast, it will be enough to walk at a light pace for about 5 minutes. This can be easily integrated into your daily activity routine.
