Inactive nutritional yeast protein

Description

Nutritional Yeast Protein is a great superfood to enrich the nutritional value of any preparation.

Properties and benefits of Inactive nutritional yeast protein

Contains the 9 essential amino acids. It also features all the BCAAs and glutamine.

Using the PDCAAS (Protein Digestibility Corrected Amino Acid Score) method recommended by the FAO/WHO Committee in 1993, by now, the most widely used method worldwide to determine the quality of a protein. What PDCAAS evaluates is the nutritional quality of specific protein sources, based on the calculation of the aminogram corrected by their ileal digestibility (in the ileum, final part of the small intestine).

Thus, the PDCAAS of nutritional yeast protein is 1 (maximum value) equivalent to egg white or whey.

Nutritional Yeast Protein is extracted from nutritional yeast that is carefully grown from a strain of the primary yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae in purified beet molasses. Later it is inactivated and dried in a roller drum that turns it into homogeneous flakes. Being inactive, this yeast would not proliferate the development of yeast in the intestinal tract.

It is a food with extraordinary nutritional properties. It is ideal to enrich the diet of healthy and convalescent people, children, athletes, vegans or vegetarians.

Nutritional yeast protein is an exceptional source of high-quality protein. It contains 82% bioavailable proteins, which makes it one of the foods richest in this nutrient on the entire planet.

This superfood also presents B vitamins, Zinc (14% VRN), calcium, magnesium, iron and copper and has a low fat content.

How to take Inactive nutritional yeast protein?

Nutritional yeast protein can be used in very diverse applications and formats.

For each 30g dose, add a vegetable drink, milk, yogurt or water to taste (about 200/300ml).

It can be sprinkled directly on salads and hot and cold prepared dishes.

It is used to make vegan “cheese”, to gratin, as an ingredient in fillings. It can also be combined with spices or herbs and made into condiments.

It enhances the flavors of stews, sauces, pasta, and pizzas due to its flavor reminiscent of cheese.

It dissolves well in liquid media so it can be used to enrich soups and creams. In smoothies and vegetable drinks, as a topping for morning cereals.

The culinary applications are practically limitless.

Storage conditions

Store in a cool place (Preferably 5-15ºC), protected from direct light. In dry conditions (Preferably RH 55-60%) and clean.

Once the packaging is opened, close hermetically and store again under the conditions described to avoid exposure to ambient humidity, the adhesion of odors and microbial contamination.
