Brewer's Yeast

Brewer's yeast, also known as beer yeast, is a type of single-celled fungus that occurs during the brewing process of beer. This yeast belongs to the Saccharomyces cerevisiae family and is often obtained as a byproduct of beer production. In addition to the brewery, brewer's yeast is also produced for nutritional purposes, often offered in powder or tablet form.

Traditionally, brewer's yeast is used as a dietary supplement due to its richness in nutrients, including B vitamins, proteins, and minerals. For animals such as dogs, chickens, and horses, brewer's yeast can be a valuable addition to their diet. It is often added to feed to support digestion and promote overall health.

In dogs, brewer's yeast can help with a healthy skin and coat, while for chickens it can stimulate egg production. For horses, it is often used to increase energy levels and improve condition. However, the use of brewer's yeast should always be done in consultation with a veterinarian to ensure the correct dosage and application.
