What is nutritional yeast? Yeasts are single-celled fungi. Edible yeasts include baker’s yeast, brewer’s yeast, and nutritional yeast. While all three are variants of the same species,Saccharomyces cerevisiae, each has a different use. Baker’s yeast is a live active yeast that is used for helping baked goods rise. Brewer’s yeast is a live active yeast that is used for brewing beer. Nutritional yeast is an inactive yeast that is consumed for its nutritional content. RED STAR Nutritional Yeast is a primary-grown nutritional yeast, meaning it is cultivated expressly for its nutritional components. RED STAR Nutritional Yeast is manufactured in a state-of-the-art, GMP-certified facility in Cedar Rapids, Iowa, where we control every aspect of the production process.
