Here are a few of the benefits of adding Nutritional Yeast to your diet:

  OPTIMIZE YOUR HEALTH WITH SUPER NUTRIENTS. Our Nutritional Yeast is naturally comprised of 50% protein (a complete, bioavailable and vegan source), over 20% fiber, contains all 18 amino acids and 15 different minerals (including iron, selenium and zinc) as well as a natural vitamin B-complex and Beta-glucans (known for their extreme immune enhancing properties plus their ability to lower bad cholesterol and reduce the risk of heart disease, stroke and some cancers).

 LOSE WEIGHT NATURALLY. Enjoy guilt-free deliciousness with this salty, creamy, nutty, cheese-tasting superfood that can be sprinkled on just about everything and is bound to become your secret weapon in weight loss! In addition to being extremely low in calories, fat and sodium, it is dairy free, gluten free, MSG free and chocked full of vitamins, minerals, fiber and protein. Thank you mother nature!

 FIGHT AGING & FREE RADICALS. With highly absorbable amounts of nucleotides (the building blocks of DNA & RNA), Nutritional Yeast promotes cellular repair and regeneration. Then, by combining the two antioxidants glutathione and selenium, our Nutritional Yeast Flakes create a special enzyme called glutathione peroxidase that is known to neutralize free radicals and protect us from their damage.

 END YOUR ENERGY CRISIS. 15-40% of Americans are deficient in B vitamins which can lead to deep and ongoing fatigue, brain fog, irritability, depression, and even insomnia (as they play a crucial role in melatonin production). The body depends on B6 to make the hormones serotonin and norepinephrine, which affect both mood and feelings of happiness. Improved Vitamin B intake helps us sleep well and helps balance our hormones. increase our energy levels, clarity & overall mental function.
Whomever said that this tastes like cheese needs to be kicked...hard! This was by far the most disgusting thing I have gotten in a long while. 

The little yellow flakes (AKA powder of death) smells horrible in the bag and I was very not wanting to try this. I tasted a bit on a spoon and while the texture and meltiness on my tongue was fine it was very sour tasteing, it tasted processed and while slightly cheesy, not good enough! 

 Being one to not leave something alone after one try I decided maybe it would taste okay in a food item (or at least masked well enough)... NOPE. I put this with rice, who dosnt like cheese and rice right? Tasted sour still and while it did mix in well and i could not feel it on my tongue so much the terrible taste was still there and I could not finish my food. I know it is supposed to be healthy and good for you and all that but there ARE healthy things that taste FAR better than this stuff!

Note - I received this product in exchange for an honest review
