One of these - and usually the best choice - is certified brewer's yeast, a complete food, left over from the process of creating alcohol. Brewer's yeast consists of the dried, pulverized cells of Saccharomyces cerevisiae, a type of fungus. High-quality brewer’s yeast powder or flakes contain as much as 60mcg of chromium per Tablespoon (15gm). When in doubt, enquire about the chromium content. As you tolerate it, gradually increase your dose to 1 to 2 tablespoons, watching how you feel as you do. If symptoms improve, you have a new power-packed food that may provide considerable health benefits. It is not related to Candida albicans fungus, which causes yeast infection.
Certain medications may interact with brewer's yeast and it is recommended that you discuss the use of brewer's yeast and your current medication(s) with your doctor or pharmacist.
