Nutritional Yeast Yeast grown, from pure strains of Saccharomyces cerevisiae, on a purified nutrient source specifically for its nutritional value. • Nutritional Yeast • Excellent source of protein (essential and non-essential AA’s) • Rich in Vitamins (B-complex; folic acid) • High in Dietary Fibers (β-glucans) • Naturally low in Fat and Sodium • Product with No added Preservatives • Kosher certified • Not a Genetically Modified Organism (GMO)

Effect of NY fortification on extrudate Physico-chemical parameters
♦Nutritional components: protein, ash (minerals), fat, and dietary fiber of the extruded snacks increased as the concentration of NY increased in the lentil-based formulations ♦ Sensory evaluation test demonstrated that the Lentil-based extruded snacks containing up to 12% NY, had good acceptability by the tasters ♦Fortification with 12% NY significantly increased the IVPD of the extruded snack CONCLUSIONS ♦Effect of Yeast fortification on some physico-chemical parameters: ● Degree of expansion of the extrudateswas considered appropriated for expanded snacks ● Bulk density was inversely related to expansion ratio and directly related with higher yeast concentration ●SME required to process the extrudates was favored by higher Yeast concentration ●Water activity of the extrudates was very low and similar to those of dehydrated foods (Aw 0.4) ♦Expanded extruded snack-type foods, made from pulse-based formulations fortified with NY,would generate economic advantages for pulse’ producers and food processors & provide consumers with highly nutritious, healthy, safe, and convenient food alternatives
