Is this the same or similar to Fermax yeast nutrient?

I Don't think this would be the same as Fermax Yeast Nutrient. This is more for breaking down corn etc. into starch so it can ferment.

Amylase is the enzyme that converts starch into maltose in the mash tun. It does not feed the brewer's yeast.

No not even close... Fermax is diammonium phosphate, dipotassium phosphate, magnesium sulfate, autolyzed yeast... I use it for wine making (sometimes to make yeast work better). This product "Amylase" is for converting starch to sugar (making beer, vodka, whiskey)... I have had pretty good results making my own yeast nutrient with (tomato paste, boiled dry yeast and multi vitamins)... Happy brewing :)

Yes and that is how I use it. I can't tell any difference between this and "bread machine" yeast. It also makes the bread taste better than a store brand yeast bought at the supermarket.

Google is a wonderful source of information. I didn't know the answer, but go to: www.milkandhoneyhealthfoods.com/brewers-yeast-versus-nutritional-yeast for the best explanation I found.

It is not the same as brewers yeast. It is used by people that have gone vegan and is a nutritional yeast. The label says, This nutritional yeast is a rich source of B-complex vitamins and can easily be added to a number of meals and drinks. Sprinkle on popcorn, salads, soups and casseroles for a boost of nutrients. Try adding a tablespoon to your morning cereal, smoothies or juice for an extra healthy start to the day. Each serving contains 8 grams of protein and a number of vitamins and minerals. Nutritional Facts: (16g), Cal. 70, Cal. from Fat 10, Fat 1g (2%DV), Cholest. 0g, Fiber 4g (16%DV), Protein 8g, Sodium 11mg (0% DV), Sugar 0g,*Percent Daily Values (DV) are based on 2,000 calorie diet. Ingredients: Inactive Dried Yeast, Niacin (B3), Pyridoxine Hydrochloride (B6), Riboflavin (B2), Thiamin Hydrochloride (B1), Folic Acid and Vitamin B12. I hope this helps you. Mrs. H

inferior yeast. The B-12 SHOULD be in the form of methylcobalamin. Disappointed in megafoods, it's my favorite supplement brand.

It's the same thing you see marketed in the local stores as bread machine yeast. That's the main thing I use it for and I first bought here on Amazon when I could only find it locally in the little envelopes. I do like it better. I think it gives a more consistent rise and it's way more economical.

According to the label, the yeast is primary grown on molasses. They are unsweetened, non-GMO, and naturally low in fat and sodium.

Yes, it is. Take a look at the pic of the side panel of the box and enlarge it. You can get an idea of the nutritional elements contained in this supplements.

No this is not the same as your Dr has suggested. Ferrous Gluconate, is a type of iron that is contained in food. As far as I know the brand names for it are Ferate, Fergon, Farralet, and Simron. It's the iron one gets when pregnant. I am not sure if it is RX only. Hope this helps.

I also use this and am looking for a less expensive equivalent, I noticed the address on jars for both products look the same so I checked the full ingredients on the Viralys website and found the same ingredients as in the Tomlyn product, see for yourself... http://vetoquinolus.naccvp.com/product/basic/view/1005047 and... http://www.tomlyn.com/products/cat/vitamins-immune-support/immune-support-l-lysine-powder (find the Lysine powder)

Hi Kimberly, Yes, it is the same stuff. And it will help with nursing your baby. It's also great for B vitamins. I don't buy actual brewer's yeast, though, because it is often too bitter for my taste. I guess beer drinkers like that flavor. 'Nutritional yeast is equivalent, but tastes much better in my opinion. I actually have a preference for nutritritional year flakes. So yummy. I usually flavor it with Spike, available at health food stores and most large grocery stores. With Bragg's product it is already nicely seasoned. I generally buy larger quantities for our use on popcorn or stir fry mostly. Health and good luck to you and yours!

They are not the same. Nutritional yeast is made from fermenting sugar cane and/or beets. Brewer's yeast is derived from the brewing of beer. I know that nutritional yeast is a complete protein and very high in B12. Do an internet search "Is nutritional yeast the same as brewer's yeast?" and you will get some good information

Unless the ingredients specifically use the term "yeast", I am not able to identify products that may be derived from yeast. Your best bet is to write or call the manufacturer or distributor.

I am afraid I can't really answer your question beyond being able to comment about the taste. Nutritional yeast is cheesy, nutty and savory. I don't believe you can say that about baking yeast. I suggest you do some research to see if baking yeast and nutritional yeast are "related" beyond the name. All I know is that bread yeast is alive - nutritional yeast is inactive and they aren't a substitute for each other!

I think all the ingredients are listed on the website. I don't think brewer's yeast is in it.
