Nutritional Yeast is a powerhouse product as it is a complete protein. A complete protein provides all nine of the essential amino acids that our body cannot make on its own. I love getting protein from non-cholesterol sources. Nutritional yeast is unique with its pleasant cheesy flavor and powerful nutritional content. One serving has an impressive 8g of protein. I have recently been adding it to vegetables, potatoes, tofu, and even homemade popcorn.
