Yeast Free Diets - Do All B-Vitamins Come From Yeast?

By Matt Bournston

Okay, so you've recently started on a yeast-free diet, or you're thinking about starting on one. Whichever of those applies to you, you may be wondering about B-vitamins, since brewer's yeast is one form of B-vitamins. So you're probably wondering: do all B-vitamins come from yeast?

The answer is: no. Although brewers yeast is itself very high in B-vitamins, this does not mean this is the only source of them. They are also found in liver, whole-grain cereals, nuts, rice, eggs, milk, fish, meat, leafy green vegetables, fruits, and many more foods. So it's more about where you get your B-vitamins from, rather than B-vitamins themselves being made from Yeast. If you avoid Brewer's Yeast, then you should be fine.

More about B-vitamins:

The Vitamins B Complex category contains 8 different water soluble vitamins. They were originally thought to be just one single vitamin when they were first discovered. But then they realized they were in fact chemically different substances that happen to exist in the same foods.

The B-Vitamins are:

B1: Thiamine, B2: Riboflavin, B3: Niacin/Nicotinamide, B5: Pantothenic Acid, B6: Pyridoxine/Pyridoxal/Pyridoxamine, B7: Biotin, B9: Folic Acid, Vitamin B12.

Health Benefits of B-Vitamins

* Proper metabolism and energy

* Healthy skin and muscles

* Healthy nervous system and immune system.

So hopefully this has put your mind at rest that just because you will be following a strict yeast free diet, this does not mean you will have to miss out on your all important B-vitamins. B-vitamins come in many different forms that are free from yeast. Living on a yeast free diet is easy once you get used to it. - 17273
