Health Benefits of Nutritional Yeast
Nutritional yeast is a high-protein plant food. This dehydrated inactive yeast has become popular among vegans and vegetarians. It has a unique flavor that gives a nutritional boost to a variety of recipes. Nutritional yeast is rich in B vitamins, making it a wonderful food to consume for a healthy metabolism and optimal energy. It has a savory, cheesy flavor that goes well in soups, pasta, risotto, and roasted vegetables. You can also sprinkle it onto a vegan pizza or stir it into tofu and scrambled eggs.
Two tablespoons of nutritional yeast offers about 5 grams of protein while providing thiamin, riboflavin, niacin, and folate. It also contains a key carbohydrate called beta-glucan, which has been shown to help lower cholesterol. Plant based proteins provide an energy boost without excessive fat and calories, making them an excellent choice to incorporate into your meals. Try some for yourself! It’s available at your local grocery store in the health food section or in the baking aisle.
