What Is Brewer’s Yeast?
Brewer’s yeast is a type of microscopic fungus traditionally used in the fermentation of beer. Inactive brewer’s yeast contains non-living yeast cells and is commonly used as a nutritional ingredient because it naturally provides proteins, B vitamins, minerals, and amino acids.
Brewer’s yeast has long been included in nutritional and beauty-focused wellness routines, particularly those centered on the hair, skin, and nails.*
What Nutrients Does Brewer’s Yeast Provide?
The nutritional value of brewer’s yeast comes from its naturally occurring composition:
- B vitamins: brewer’s yeast naturally provides several B vitamins, including vitamins B1, B2, and B3, which contribute to normal physiological functions.*
- Minerals: it naturally contains minerals such as magnesium, iron, and zinc.
- Proteins: brewer’s yeast provides proteins containing a range of amino acids.
- Yeast-derived compounds: it also naturally contains polysaccharides and other compounds that continue to be studied as part of nutritional research.*
What Is in Brewer’s Yeast Hair Boost?
Brewer’s Yeast Hair Boost combines inactive brewer’s yeast with zinc, biotin, and vitamin B6:
- Inactive brewer’s yeast: each serving provides a high amount of inactive Saccharomyces cerevisiae. “Inactive” means that the yeast cells are no longer alive and therefore do not have probiotic activity. The brewer’s yeast selected for this formula contains a guaranteed minimum of 40% protein.
- Zinc: zinc contributes to the maintenance of normal hair, skin, and nails.* This formula uses zinc bisglycinate, a chelated form of the mineral.
- Biotin: biotin contributes to the maintenance of normal hair and supports normal macronutrient metabolism.*
- Vitamin B6: vitamin B6 contributes to normal protein metabolism and normal cysteine synthesis.*
This combination provides complementary nutrients for daily supplementation as part of a balanced diet and healthy lifestyle.*
How Should Brewer’s Yeast Hair Boost Be Taken?
Adults should take two capsules daily with a glass of water, or as directed by a healthcare professional.
Are There Any Precautions?
Consult a healthcare professional before use if you are pregnant or breastfeeding, are taking medication, have an existing medical condition, or are sensitive to any of the ingredients. Do not exceed the recommended daily serving.
