Welcome to the Dr. Berg's Healthy Keto and Interminute Fasting Podcast, where Dr.

Berg takes you on the journey for the truth about getting healthy and losing healthy weight.

Today, I want to talk about the benefits of nutritional yeast that go beyond just providing

B vitamins. So you have nutritional yeast, and then you also have burrs yeast. Burrs yeast is the

byproduct of making beer. It's a bit bitter. Nutritional yeast is not that bitter, and it's made

with molasses. Now molasses is a byproduct of sugar cane. So when they make white sugar,

they take everything else but the pure carbohydrate. And what they're taking away is all the nutrients,

the minerals, the trace minerals, the calcium, B vitamins. So molasses is rich in nutrients.

So then they feed the yeast, and they enrich this yeast product with a lot of extra nutrients.

So this yeast actually makes amino acids. So nutritional yeast, you have 18 amino acids.

It's a complete protein. And anytime you're consuming protein, if you're consuming amino acids in

their basic form, it's very easy to digest those amino acids because your body doesn't have

to break it down. There's 15 minerals and trace minerals. You have selenium, which is great for

the thyroid. It's good to counter mercury. It's good for autoimmune conditions, chromium,

for blood sugars, manganese, for soft tissue, like ligaments and tendons. People that have flat

feet feel better when they take manganese. You have copper and other minerals. Now as far as

amino acids, it's very rich in lysine, which is good for cold floors, which is a virus,

to put the virus back on the mission. And it's also rich in trip to fan, which is great for

sleeping, stress, and cravings. Nutritional yeast also is high in glutathione, which is one of the

most powerful antioxidants for your liver to help you detoxify. It also has beta-1 and 3

glucains, which will decrease free radicals, as well as stimulate certain white blood cells.

It has something called glucose tolerance factor, which helps stabilize your blood sugar.
