Is your Nutritional Yeast fortified?

Is your Nutritional Yeast fortified?

Yes, our Nutritional Yeast Flakes are fortified with B vitamins, including folic acid (B9) and vitamin B12, and are enriched with iron.

“Fortified” means vitamins and minerals are introduced during production to increase the product’s nutritional content.
 The yeast is grown on a nutrient-rich medium, allowing it to take up these nutrients during fermentation. It is then harvested, washed, heat-inactivated and dried into flakes.
