What are the ingredients? It is very important that I purchase a nutritional yeast that is not fortified with folic acid

I am sorry I am not able to answer your question. The powder came in a plastic bag and I kept the label to secure to a jar. It doesn't state the ingredients. the brand is Starwest Botanicals and is from Germany.

ingredients section of this page does mention folic acid:http://www.starwest-botanicals.com/category/nutritional-yeast-powder-flakes/

Since the label does say there is substantial Vit B-12 in this product it folows it MUST be fortified with B12. Nutritional yeast is often used by vegans & vegetarians who sometimes need B12 supplementation their diets with vitamin B12. The yeast colonies cannot produce B12, which is only naturally produced by bacteria. Some brands of nutritional yeast, including this one are fortified with vitamin B12. When fortified, the vitamin B12 is produced separately (commonly cyanocobalamin) and then added to the yeast.

The bottle says "Raw food-created nutrients", but doesn't list specific sources. Nothing is synthetic though & it has folate instead of folic acid, which I love as a midwife.

I took a photo of the back ingredients on bottle but there is no option here to place the photo. It does not appear to have sugar or yeast but sometimes hard to tell. It does say contains no milk, soy, egg or wheat. Be well!

Just Nutritional yeast. The difference between "Organic" and "Natural is the Natural yeast they add synthetic vitamins to the yeast especially, Vitamin B12 because it is a little lower in this vitamin. They also grow the yeast on sugar beets which are GMO'd. Starwest grows theirs on molasses. Starwest Botanicals Nutritional Yeast is just yeast. Very good quality.

I don't think so. I went into the 'Ingredients' and found no sugar. I have been taking this now and then since a month or so and have NOT tasted any sweetness. Since it is a caplet it won't contain yeast. A note at the bottom of the Supplement fact says: "Free from milk, soy, egg & wheat".

Elaine I have read the product label and it states that Red Yeast Rice is carefully produced to avoid the presence of citrinin, so if you can trust the label it does not have this in this product.

From what I read, fortified nutritional yeast is nutritional yeast that has Vit B12 added to it. Hoosier Hill Farm Premium Large Yeast Flakes is not labeled fortified but it does have Vit B12.

As far as I can tell it does not contain sugar or yeast. It also states "free from Milk,soy,egg & wheat". The website listed is www.ayush.com and a phone nbr 425-637-1400. Hope this is helpful
