I haven't had it for several years. Can't remember why I stopped, probably

the horrible taste. I used to buy it powdered in a large can (like a coffee

can) from the HFS and then I would mix it in juice to take it. It needs

something to cover up the taste.

I took it daily for decades, usually in pineapple juice, with vit C powder also.

My first experience was with apple juice, but I don't like that now. My daughter

liked to drink it in milk.

But I think the flavor combines well with savory foods such as soy sauce and

garlic.

Max, I usually use the Nutritional Yeast from KAL. It comes in large boxes

(HFS or online). It tastes lots better than brewer's, which I find inedible,

LOL

You can sprinkle it on almost anything: salads, gravy.., I even sometimes

use it on buttered " zekes " toast, yummy to me.

Try it, you might like it,

I know I'm strange, but I like to eat it off the spoon - not mixed in with

anything. I can't take ruining good juice just so I can get the yeast. For

me the yeast buds are the best. Reminds me I need to go get some, I've been

out for a while now.

It does have an awful taste, but I also discovered that one can get used

to it SLOWLY :-)) And later one can actually like it!

I used to add it to my son's formula when he was an infant and he'd

have two tablespoons per cup with no sweetener or other flavour and

loved it! [He is so healthy he doesn't know how to get sick! It's

disgusting.]

My approach:

I make a sort of egg nog thing, with about three eggs, and some boiling

water (used to use powdered milk before O days), and something to

sweeten it and optionally some spices. You can make it cold if you

prefer but I like it the hot way. (No cooking, just add water the temp

you prefer.)

It's a great breakfast-on-the-run thing or a

meal-before-major-cycle event thing. How much water to add is an

individual taste thing, I start with making a total of 1.5 cups liquid.

To this initially add (whisk in) 1/4 teaspoon of brewer's yeast (by the

way this is NOT the same as baker's yeast as used in bread, do not use

that!) Use " food yeast " or " nutritional yeast " or brewer's yeast " .

Once you have your ratios where you like them you can start

experimenting with less sweetener and more yeast. I now can drink 1.5

cups that includes 3 eggs, no sweetening and 2 heaped teaspoons of

brewer's yeast. But it took a long time to gradually get there. I upped

by 1/4 teaspoon about once a month.

> I used to buy it powdered in a large can (like a coffee

Here you can get it in bulk from Fred Meyer grocery section, or in jars

at the HF store.

Namaste,

Irene

It's like a concentration of B vitamins all in one small place that also

is high protein.

You could say it is microprotein. Just as you get all kinds of different

types of bacteria including good ones and bad ones - you get all kinds

of different yeasts too. They are single cell animals (so much bigger

than bacteria but much smaller than other life forms) and the brewer's

yeast is what was originally used to make beer - hence the name. (Most

beer these days is chemically made instead of brewed.)

Nutritional yeast, brewer's yeast, torula yeast and food yeast are

names for different strains of edible high protein high B-vitamin

yeasts. What you buy is the dried (dead) yeast cells to eat - looks like

yellowy powder.

The yeast with which you make bread is " baker's " yeast - also a single

cell yeast creature - but these are live yeast and you do never want to

eat live yeast - baker's or anything else. Hence only eat baker's yeast

after it is cooked dead, unless you want one gigantic tummyache:-))

After cooking, baker's yeast is also nutritious and puts B vitamins into

bread.

Namaste,

Irene

Irene I seem to have all sorts of supplements. Ihave aquired them from diff

health food stores and diff reccomendations to the point of being confused on

what to take when or even why. Here is a list of what I have:

Total EFA (omega 3,6,9) directions take3 soft gels daily with a meal.

Bladderwrack(take 1-3 per day)

Candidase by enzymedica for yeast overgrowth (it just says serving size 2

capsules)

L-Glutamine Powder

Catechol for type 0

Multi Vitamin

my main complaints are extreme fatique, sensitivity (emotional), cravings for

junk, EXTREME dry skin(cracked heels, dry hands) and just plain old lousy.

Should I take all of this?

le,

It seems to me like you're coming from a deep dark place.

My suggestion is to concentrate on what you eat and do exercise.

So, eat animal protein & leafy green veges as much as you can. Do

exercise, even if it is only walking, but do exercise.

Sooner or later your body will adjust to all the good things that you

are doing. Once you've got your protein intake just right, you'll

start to lose your cravings for junk. The fatigue will go away as

your body thrives on all the good things. Instead of the fatigue, you

will be jumping out of your skin. The dry skin will also go.

But you need to just eat the good stuff and experiment so that it is

enjoyable for you.

Out of the supplements, you mention I would continue with the

bladderwrack. It helps fight off the effects of bad lectins that we

may eat. I can't comment on the others.

And don't get disheartened. It has taken me 2 years on BTD to work

out a diet and exercise regimen that works for me. It's different for

everyone but the basics are the same. Drop wheat and thrive on meat &

veges.

Cheers,

Back in the '40's my mother used to give me the bakers yeast in a square cube.

That was live yeast in a moist but not wet form, and it didn't give me a

bellyache. Of couse now there is fast drying the other kind isn't around any

more.

What is in the Candidase?

The other stuff sounds fine, but diet is most important. ITrace minerals

could also be very beneficial for you. I have had good reports back about

cracked skin and sugar cravings improving.

Eventually you may need a liver/gall bladder cleanse.

That looks like a protein and fiber digestive enzyme. Helpful most anytime but

I think you need something more for killing the yeast and clearing it.

I would suggest an Anti-candida formula from a good company. Some Vit C

and/or Grapeseed extract for antioxidant clearing. Lots of good water sipped on

throughout the day. Also some good acidophilus to replace the good bacteria, I

consider essential. Usually best taken on an empty stomach.

Trace Minerals are a liquid mineral formula with around 80 something of the

minerals we ned only minut(sp) amounts of. A good health food store should have

them.

Either Colloidal or Ionic. Should be around $20 for 32 oz. Don't get any

with a bunch of other good sounding stuff in it. Don't start with the full

recommended dose and take with a meal not on an empty stomach.

It sounds like you're eating carbs and grains. The more carbs you eat the

more you crave.

Have you had your secretor status tested? You may be eating something that you

shouldn't be because of your secretor status.

Go to www.vitacost.com

Check out their description of Labs Brewer's yeast. This is my favorite

version. It looks like brewers yeast with the nutrition content of nutritional

yeast. I can't speak for fronteir nutritional yeast because they don't give

good product desciption

There is a paler yellowish flaky kind that is delicious that health

food stores get in bulk. I don't know the source, they sell it as

nutritional yeast or brewer's yeast as if they were interchangable.

We like that one on bagels and popcorn and some other things as

well. The kids will eat a bowl of it mixed into a paste with Bragg's

Liquid Aminos as if it's candy.

We ran out the same time as the store so I got some powder that was

in a can called Nutritional Yeast and the stuff was horrible

tasting. It was a darker brown and a fine powder.

NOW sells nutritional yeast tablets that are chewable and the kids

and pets love them - the cat will even do tricks for them and is

fanatical about getting his two yeast pellets at least once a day.

He'll start causing problems until we give in and give them to him -

he's training us!

I've been wondering about growing some yeast as food - the s.

boulardii says you can grow it. Maybe it would be even better if we

cultured it in some flour/water mix and let it go awhile then ate it -

more active yeast organisms plus the B vitamins, etc. that it

makes. Or putting it in sweet juice to make a fizzy pop. Hmmm...

Gotta go try that one now! :)
