Dr Berg recommends specifically getting "non-fortified" Nutritional Yeast. The fortified versions have added synthetic B-vitamins (i.e. folic acid) that aren't absorbed well. My sister was having issues with the Braggs Nutritional Yeast, made her switch to a non-fortified brand. Problem solved. BTW: it needs to say "non-fortified" otherwise it's fortified with synthetic B vitamins.
@@vanbuddha1 Brewers Yeast will contribute to candida exponentially more than Nutritional Yeast. However, if you're in the middle of a bacterial imbalance, I would avoid Nutritional Yeast as well. If you eat clean Keto (i.e. avoiding carbs & sugar), you will starve the candida. Watch out for hidden sugars like tomatoes, corn, fruits dairy, alcohol, etc.
Loved this information! I love nutritional yeast! I add it to my veggies. I can literally eat an entire bag of veggies when I add this stuff... it tastes THAT good! Plus before trying this I was losing A LOT of hair but within a week my hair loss stopped! It truly is amazing stuff! 😊
Thats great to know, coz my hair has been thinning since being poorly 2 years ago. Im not eating well because im not active enough, coz i still dont have my prosthetic leg. Yes its taken 2 years. The NHS prosthetic service is absolutely shocking in this country. Ive been in chronic depression & practically suicidal because of the delays, not help by the covid outbreak, but to be off your feet for 2 years has done so much damage to my body, its just crazy, i cant exercise much, so i dont work up an appetite so im not sleeping properly. Its been a bloody nightmare from start to finish & our prosthetics compared to your lively American ones are absolutely crap they really are out of the dark ages, so ugly so heavyand take a bloody age to make. I wish i could come to the US and get one of yours. Youd be so shocked to see what we have to put up with. Long John Silver comes to ming, all i need is an eye patch & a bloody parrot, i kid you not. They bloody awful & i hate them not comfortable at all. And we certainly dont get eniugh rehap or physio thats for sure. Its a pretty dismil service to be honest 😥
@@fionakent3083 So very sorry you in this dire/life altering crises! My words will not ease your pain or your extreme situation but….do know I care.❤ Be safe……….🤗
Shaun and Karen Hadsall ad before I began watching the video, truly ticks me off. They are trying to tell people Keto does not work for anyone over 40, that your hormones are different, etc, etc. Well here I am age 51, 95 pounds lost, I don't take any hormone supplement anymore, no more thyroid medication because my thyroid works at 100%, no more IBS, no more inflammation and arthritis. I hate those ads that try to down keto, truly makes me mad.
Hey Vicki. I am with you. I am 65. In 4 months I lost 35 pounds and kept it off for more than year. I am back to the weight I had when I finished University
I've been using nutritional yeast since my 20s back in the 1990s. But back then it was called brewer's yeast because that is where it came from. Over the decades, it's one of the few consistent parts of my diet. Even when eating unhealthy, I kept brewer's/nutritional yeast around. These days, I most often put it on eggs.
From Medical news: Nutritional yeast comes from a species of yeast known as Saccharomyces cerevisiae. There is another form of this yeast species, which is called brewer’s yeast. Although people sometimes use the terms interchangeably, it is essential to note that nutritional yeast is not the same as brewer’s yeast.
@DATING HARLEY QUINN Thank you for the update. I totally agree. Kerrygold grass fed is fantastic. I buy it here at a store called Trader Joes. Excellent!
@DATING HARLEY QUINNyou are very lucky! Eastern Europe in general is very lucky that way. I was in Ukraine a few times and really noticed a difference in the intensity of the flavor of the vegetables. We were told that GMO was not known and they didn't use pesticides. The only thing there is a certain over planted crop (I think mustard seed or rape) they said they use it for fuel??? It is spending the soil pretty rapidly. So sad.
I love nutritional yeast! Before I found keto I would put olive oil and nutritional yeast on my popcorn. Now sometimes I make myself a little savoury fat bomb by mixing nutritional yeast with a tablespoon of butter. Yum yum!
"Here Thomas goes, with his fancy-schmancy stuff again!" Thomas...keep it up! I am a Biology teacher and really appreciate that you always back up what you are saying (cite your sources). My background allows me to follow you easily, but I think you also do a good job of breaking it down for viewers who might not have the biochemistry background. I am so happy I have discovered your channel, you are my new hero!
Unfortunately, doing this type of diet long-term will almost certainly shorten your life. I would turn to a real scientific researcher like Valter Longo, David Sinclair, or Rhonda Patrick for more reliable information.
@@maarten7 you do know infants need ketosis for development. Meaning we don’t develop without ketosis. How could the state we develop in be dangerous. A infant is fragile so if it this states was “toxic” or danderous I’m sure nature wouldn’t choose ketosis for every infant everytime. Lol The alternative “insulin rich”state your in as we speak is killing you, not ketosis . Forget scholars, use your common sense
“Nerd sauce”!! Thomas, you’re the best!! I just want to give a big shout out to you with some heartfelt thanks for your help in my reduction of belly fat. I was meeting some family members for the first time. A week before I left I saw my stomach actually shrinking. I have been following your recommendation to break my fast with protein, maybe a few carbs but no fat. It totally worked for me. I went to Disney World for a week with my family and didn’t gain any weight!! Mind you, there was a pile of walking in those four days, but I was proud to be able to stay basically on the keto track and feel great about myself. Seeing I’m 73, I am really thankful for my health. And for you!
The B Vitamins are heat-sensitive. Don't put it on your keto pizza before baking...sprinkle it on food AFTER. The video shows your wife sprinkling it on before baking, looks like the pizza toppings were still raw. Feel free to correct me if I'm wrong.
FYI it tastes good, but if you have IBS/Chrohn's issues, this stuff may be a trigger and can absolutely wreck you from stem to stern. I tried it and had the worst gut pain I think I've ever experienced after eating it as a topping. Excising yeast from my diet has mitigated the vast majority of my digestion issues that began a few years back. Fwiw, just my experience.
I mix NY with herbs and spices and chillies and pour it over all my meals. I also mix it into my almond flour cracker biscuit mix. They turn out delicious. I also pour it on my mince lettuce wraps.
Epic! I bough Nutritional Yeast but I didn’t read the ingredients list properly until I got home. Turns out this brand of nutritional yeast contains / is mixed with grains and thus a lot of carbohydrates. Next time I’ll search for a brand that does it better.
I just enjoy the flavor that Nutritional Yeast gives my food. I wasn't fond of ground turkey until I added Nutritional Yeast to it and now I add it to all my ground meats.
Love the science behind all if this could you please make a list that specifically says what foods or suppliments we need for every thing to get this body on track , a short list....
Nerd sauce sounds SO wrong... lol I use Nooch everyday! : ) It is great on egg salad and tuna salad... or just mixed with mayo & salsa as a dip. I too eat it by itself sometimes... Thumbs up! 👍🏼
I make a drink with coconut milk or almond milk, nutritional yeast, vanilla and stevia - delicious! When I was a child my Mama would make a nutri. yeast drink just in water nothing else, and I loved it - maybe because my mother made it for me.
I used to put nutritional yeast in my OJ and all over my popcorn. I pretty much never drink juices anymore and popcorn only on special occasions so now i find other ways to eat it. Its delicious stuff though sprinkled on salads or anything really. Loaded with great amino acids, fiber, vitamins, and minerals.
I read an article that nutritional yeast is made the same way MSG is made & it has the same effect on the body. I’ve never known the accuracy of that article but since I’m allergic to MSG, I’ve always stayed away from it
Huge fan. Keep up the great work! Unfortunately, you got one thing wrong in that video. Thrive Market isn't cheaper than the grocery stores here in Chicago. Wanted to support and give them a try, but most of the Ketogenic items on their website are 10-15% more expensive. Thanks again. Looking forward to the next video )
Agreed. If you don't live near a big city with good grocery stores, Thrive Market will fill that gap. There's plenty of suburbs that don't have Whole Foods or other healthy grocery stores. Finding quality ingredients can be a challenge for those folks.
All that information is great. But you need to include how many teaspoons, or ounces a person needs to add to their foods in order to reap the benefits of taking nutritional yeast. It would be a great help.
I am amazed at the subjects and the deep info that Thomas provides to his followers you are the best of several Doctors. I adore your intelligence. 💪💪💕💕👈
acaciaNorison He’s is so informative and shares his knowledge! I have a travel and cheat meal Channel, I changed it more to a travel channel because he has reset my eating focus! Kiddos Thomas D! All love and support here! If you love to travel feel free to support ya girl! Xoxo 💋 🗺 ❤️ BrittEats ru-vid.com/show-UCZU4HE4VMi_ARb7s64FYIZA
I love your information giving advice unfortunately I cannot afford all these products. I have to pick and choose the ones I can afford and let the others go.
i clicked on the video to see what other weird thing he was saying to supplement, and I ended up leaving a like for the camera work. I wasn't expecting it. It just happened.
been watching a lot of your videos and i just have to get rid of this: man, your communication and speech skills are amazing! and your enthusiasm for biochemical processes is really infectious (see what i did here;). thank you for sharing and caring!
I just bought some the other day! As an Australian, and a vegemite lover. So, the nutritional yeast is yum for me (as it has that vegemite taste). Due to health issues, I'm transitioning to a plant-based lifestyle. So, it's going to be a staple for me. It's waaaay better than fake cheese.
@Omnipotent One Oooops! I just got the stuff and tried it once so far - I cooked it in eggs. I was wondering if that was ok to do or not. I should have done my research. Hopefully there’s no detrimental effects to doing that - that it just made it ineffective.
People keep saying NY is great on popcorn. Recommend doing a RU-vid search as there's a woman who has a video using NY in a salad dressing; someday I will try the recipe.
I am addicted to the best and easiest Kale salad:Kale,A.C.V,olive oil and nooch. Combo made in heaven,my everyday lunch. I think it may be a little habit-forming! : )
I've read nutritional yeast would mostly contain mould & should therefore not be eaten . We need more studies also about should d3, k2 & calcium be taken together which is also important when intermittent fasting .
Good grief i didnt know that, i have an underactive thyroid so the selenium found in the nutrional yeast is the way to go. Thanks very much, excellent tip !
Love the videos where you touch on longevity. Never thought of nutritional yeast in terms of NR, thanks for the info! Would love to see more longevity videos. NR and NMN seem really interesting =)
Since you have stopped given detailed video notes I find your videos less useful. They are so content heavy that I used to rely on reading over the notes during and after the video to fully absorb the information. There’s no need to give a full transcript - even bullet point notes would do.
I use and recommend Kefir. To my belief Kefir; esp. if you make it yourself from organic milk has all these benefits and even more. A pint or half a liter of kefir a day will sort you out good.
Give the nutritional yeast a try. It has kind of a chicken soup flavor although there isn't any chicken in it. Also, add salt to improve flavor. I also use the broth as a soup base & add the nutritional yeast to boost the flavor. Good luck!
A sprinkle here and there is ok. But to take nutritional or brewers yeast spoonfuls everyday.... I would question it. Even though it is unlikely to cause a yeast infection, it still has mold properties. It would be the like saying, to consume blue cheese on a daily basis. Not a good idea
You had me at NAD. But honestly this whole video is brilliant and I am extremely thankful to have stumbled upon your channel and subscribe right away. Definitely gonna share with all my nerd nurse friends! Thank you so much
Ok, going to TJs to get NY tomorrow. Lost 6 pounds in 3 weeks listening to Thomas. But I have been trying for for a few *years* to lose those 6 pounds.
Do your Pork Rinds a Flavor: Put some in a paper lunch bag, heat them up for 30 seconds, then add a generous tablespoon of Nutritional Yeast and shaka-shaka the bag and Enjoy! 🤩
I used to buy ‘flavored’ pork rinds, but if you read the label carefully, they add a lot of 💩. Plus the extra carbs add up (even though they hide it by saying the small bag has 3.5 servings). Now, I make my own spice blends knowing exactly what goes into it. And Nutritional Yeast is always my base ingredient. Have fun finding your favorite blends! 😊
PortCanon : after I read your comment I told my husband and I said let’s try it right now, lol. We tried it and it is supper yummy... thank you again it was something that never occurred to me before, I uses it on salads every day , but this is another great way to use it when we want a treat ... awesome, have a great week, may the Lord bless you and yours.
Nicole, SO delighted to hear. Enjoy some during your next movie night! Y’know, I asked Jesus to help me with my health situation. He steered me to this ketogenic thing in August. My wife & I are now the healthiest we’ve been in ten years! 😇 May Christ bless you & your family with His presence this Christmas. 💪🏼 🕊
Hi Nicole! Who would’ve thought we’d go from ‘pork rinds’ to ‘Praising God’ in the comment section of Thomas’ channel?! Thank you SO much for your encouraging testimony. 🤗 By the way, your baptism day happens to be my birthday. 😅
@@alicejones9031 The nutritional yeast I use is NOW brand flakes. I have it only 2 or 3 times a week, on top of the canned salmon. Perhaps 2 tablespoons worth each time.
I take a couple of table spoons in the afternoon to wake me up after drinking coffee all day, gives me a boost , de stresses me, replenish my vitamin B levels.. feel it kick it straight away...
Have been using nutritional yeast( for 3-4 years on just about everything. First meal of day and is also main meal 11:30ish consists of huge (cake-mixing bowl) salad sprinkled with 3 Tbls. unfortified nutritional yeast plus hemp seeds, Brazil nut, cup sauerkraut, sunflower or pumpkin seeds, gelled chia seeds, handful blueberries, all added to my greens + many cruciferous veggies. Very satisfying. Also take other supplements. Only med is for thyroid. (Somehow, can’t seem to do without!??) No aches or pains (fibromyalgia GONE!) Oh……also sprinkle eggs with yeast! YUM! Started this 7 1/2 yrs ago!😛😋 At 89……feeling blessed. Great thanks to the many knowledgeable RU-vid contributors!
Isn't nutritional yeast a highly processed food. It is fortified with vitamins and minerals. Another understanding I have is that it does not contain MSG that it is MSG. Could you please address this because this is very important for people who are living a healthy lifestyle and Keto
Don't over do it! All yeasts are high in purine, although nutritional yeast has less than brewer's yeast. Purines are turned into uric acid in the body which can crystalize on joints and cause gout and other issues. As a nutritional supplement with one tablespoon a day it might be OK, but if higher amounts are consumed daily best to have a uric acid test done with your next blood panel. Keep below 6 mg/dl to prevent harm.
I have been using nutritional yeast for a few years but I had no idea of the magnitude of benefits in the body. Awesome stuff! I’m a science nerd, I want to know the response on the body not to just be told something is good for me! Thanks for the great information!!!
Hi Thomas! I have tried several of Amber’s recipes and they have never disappointed. I’d love to see some more collars with Amber where she shares some more of her delicious recipes.
Thank you for sharing this information on the Nutricional Yeast, and why we should use it. I started using Nutricional Yeast, and I does use it on everything I eat.. hehe watching from Trinidad 🇹🇹🇹🇹🇹🇹
I have found your posts very informative and appreciate the scientific detail you give so its not just an opinion. What about the potential of selenium toxicity? I read on line about one once of brazil nuts can give a whole days selenium amount. just curious how much selenium can be given from the nutritional yeast?
I googled Thomas's before photos. Not only has he lost weight but without the peroxide hair and Oakley's he looks far less Australian, which can only be a good thing. I liked his turn to the side camera at 03:50.
!. Yeast being alive does not disqualify it from vegan diets. Plants are alive. Right? 2. About 50 years ago I ate nutritional and brewers yeast regularly and when my children were born we gave them some too. Subsequently, a doctor told me that nutritional yeast had been found to promote or cause cancer. I don't remember his words exactly. I know there are a lot ambiguity here but what do you think about his statement?
