What is brewer's yeast and what is it good for?
-
Brewer's yeast, we all know it from the process during the preparation of beer. That does not immediately give the feeling that we are working on something healthy for the body. Yet that is a bit more nuanced, because brewer's yeast can certainly mean something for you. It contains substances that we can take advantage of, but where does that benefit lie and can we apply it without limit?
What exactly is brewer's yeast?
-
During the beer preparation process, yeast cells remain after the filtration. These can be compressed and dried. It is therefore a kind of by-product of the beer brewing process.
What can brewer's yeast do for you?
-
Diabetes Brewer's yeast contains chromium, among other things, which can bring the blood sugar level back into balance. With insulin you convert sugar into starch and if you have diabetes (type 2), the body does not get this or too little. For whatever reason, some kind of flaw in the body. Chromium can give the required insulin a helping hand and allow the body to process what is still being produced better. The blood sugar level is more regulated in this way. Please note, it can never be a replacement for a possible route at the specialist.

Stress
-
Brewer's yeast can also play a role against stress. It has been shown that vitamin B can play a positive role in reducing stress and brewer's yeast contains vitamin B1 and can therefore also play a role in the nervous system. It helps you focus and sleep better.
Hair and nails
-
It is already known that brewer's yeast can do good for the hair. It helps to restore dry and damaged hair and can even counteract hair loss - to a limited extent. The nails are strengthened and get more suppleness (to prevent rapid breakage).
Skin
-
Vitamin B can also have a positive effect when it comes to our skin. Think of eczema or acne. When taking brewer's yeast, the blood sugar level becomes more constant and that is good for calming the skin. It would even play a positive role when it comes to skin cancer. The latter has not (yet) been scientifically proven.

Anemia
-
If you have anemia, taking brewer's yeast can be good. There is quite a bit of iron and copper in it, which can help with anemia and the effects of anemia.
Casings
-
Brewer's yeast can also play a role when it comes to the intestines. If your stool is too “heavy” and is difficult, the fibers in brewer's yeast can positively stimulate the functioning of the intestine. Moreover, brewer's yeast improves the intestinal flora by definition.

Do it yourself?
-
No, if you are suffering from something for a long time, it is good to consult your doctor and ask him or her what you might want to do. Most of the time it is a matter of “it won't hurt it”, but not in all cases. For example, it can conflict with the absorption of calcium. Because there is a lot of phosphorus in brewer's yeast, it is not recommended to take brewer's yeast. In most cases, however, it certainly doesn't hurt.
Is it the perfect solution?
-
Brewer's yeast is of course not the perfect solution and in case of a real illness, do not decline a conversation with your doctor. But there is enough information that brewer's yeast can indeed play a positive role in certain ailments. Never do it thoughtlessly, but don't just let it stand if there is the opportunity to apply it. Everything with policy, including the intake of brewer's yeast.
