Product Notes:
Unlike some types of nutritional yeast which are created from the by-products of breweries, distilleries, or paper mills and are either solvent-extracted, synthetically preserved or irradiated, Engevita Yeast is grown on sugar beet molasses, and all its vitamins and minerals occur naturally (rather than being fortified with synthetic B-Vitamins, as many brands are).
Saccharomyces cerevisiae is a fungus, a tiny plant-like microorganism which grows on the skins of grapes and other fruits and feeds on sugar, which people have learned to cultivate for a variety of purposes, including to make bread (Baker's Yeast) and to ferment beer or wine (Brewer's Yeast).
Engevita™ Nutritional Yeast Powder is made from that, too, but differs in several respects: its enzymes are deactivated (it has no leavening power -- it cannot make dough rise); it's gluten-free (since it has not come in contact with barley, as brewer's yeast often is); and it's specifically been created to serve both as a condiment (with a great nutty cheesy flavor) and as a source of nutrition, by being grown with a diet of nutrient rich food (beet molasses) to boost its vitamin and mineral content.
