Abstract

In this article the authors have reviewed the information available on food yeast with respect to its chemical composition, availability of vitamins, amino acid composition, digestibility, and biological value of yeast protein, supplementary value of yeast to poor diets based on cereals, nutritional trials on human beings and the use of yeast or yeast extract in human diets. While discussing the economics of food yeast, the authors have concluded that the future of food yeast in India may not be bright unless it could be manufactured and sold at 6-8 annas per lb.
