Since 1947 Primary Delicious Premium Natural Unflavored Unsweetened Unfortified Debittered Nothing Added Naturally Delicious Suitable for Vegetarians A completely natural primary Brewers Yeast (Saccharomyces cerevisiae): with a source of all amino acids, B-complex vitamins, minerals and naturally occurring nucleic acids. Source: Most Brewers Yeasts are derived from the fermentation of beer. Such fermentation involves using grain (rice, wheat, etc.), malt, active yeast and the dried flowers of hops. The addition of hops to the fermentation gives a characteristic flavor to beer but imparts a bitter taste to the dried Brewers Yeast obtained as a byproduct. Although efforts are made to debitter the yeast prior to final drying operations, most Brewers Yeasts are, nevertheless, left with a bitter odor. Solgars Brewers Yeast is produced from beet molasses under carefully controlled conditions. After fermentation, the yeast is collected and dried, using special techniques to preserve its protein, vitamin and mineral content.
