Analysis

Dried yeast provides a food-based mix of B vitamins plus two grams of protein per serving. Thiamine, riboflavin, niacin, B6, folic acid, B12, biotin, and pantothenic acid give it broad coverage for normal energy metabolism.

Some vitamin forms are not disclosed, and folate is supplied as folic acid rather than an active form. Calcium and phosphorus come from calcium phosphate, but their amounts are modest compared with dedicated mineral products.

The large bottle offers many servings and favorable value. Requiring several tablets for each serving makes the product cumbersome, especially for people who could use flakes or a more concentrated B-complex.

Who is it for
  • Adults who want nutritional yeast in tablet form
  • People seeking broad, moderate B-vitamin coverage
Best for
  • Food-based B-vitamin supplementation
  • Long-lasting pantry-friendly tablets

Pros

  • Supplies a broad range of B vitamins
  • Provides modest protein and minerals
  • Bottle offers many low-cost servings

Cons

  • Several vitamin forms are unspecified
  • Uses folic acid rather than active folate
  • Requires a large number of tablets per serving

Nutrient quality

76 High impact

Most B-vitamin forms are unspecified and folate is listed as folic acid. B vitamins are meaningful, while the protein amount is modest.

Ingredient transparency

80 Highest impact

Every listed active has a specific amount. Inactive ingredients are not supplied.

Customer satisfaction

71 High impact

The supplied average indicates strong aggregate satisfaction. No detailed experience reports are available to identify repeated complaints or confirm perceived benefits.

Value for money

89 Highest impact

The large package and food-based nutrient profile support the cost. Serving value appears favorable despite the six-tablet serving.

Report overview
Phosphorus (Calcium Phosphate) · 99 mg OverallScore81
B Active Ingredient Quality & BioavailabilityB- Dose, Safety & Label TransparencyA+ Value

Calcium phosphate provides a dependable mineral-salt source, although the exact calcium phosphate subtype is not specified. The phosphorus amount reaches the lower edge of a useful supplemental intake. Favorable value is offset by the need to take six tablets per serving.

View ingredientView products
Folate · 230 mcg OverallScore30
F Active Ingredient Quality & BioavailabilityD- Dose, Safety & Label TransparencyD- Value

The 230 mcg serving uses synthetic folic acid, which requires more conversion than active folate forms. Missing DFE conversion weakens label transparency. The nutritional yeast supplies several B vitamins, but its B12 amount stays below the preferred safety threshold.

80 Performance

100% Natural Whey Protein Isolate Natural Original Flavor

Bluebonnet
<p>Whey isolate supplies substantially more protein with calcium, phosphorus, magnesium, and potassium. It is better aligned with meaningful protein supplementation than the original’s modest yeast-based amount, though it does not reproduce the B-vitamin panel.</p>
74 Performance

Micellar Casein Alpine Vanilla

NutraBio
<p>Micellar casein provides a substantial slow-digesting protein serving plus much more calcium and phosphorus. The original remains broader for B vitamins, while the casein option is more useful when protein and mineral intake are the main goals.</p>
79 Performance

W 100% Whey Isolate Protein Pumpkin Spice Flavor

Biochem
<p>Whey isolate delivers a lean, substantial protein serving with calcium, phosphorus, magnesium, and potassium. The formula offers stronger protein performance than the original, but its short supply and higher recurring cost reduce practicality.</p>
69 Budget

Uni-Liver

Universal
<p>A lower-cost serving provides more protein along with calcium and a similar phosphorus amount. It lacks the original’s broad B-vitamin profile, but it is a practical low-cost choice when protein and phosphorus matter most.</p>
75 Budget

Forti-Flax

Barlean's
<p>A low-cost whole-food option supplies protein, phosphorus, magnesium, thiamine, folate, and other minerals in ground flax. Its serving cost is slightly above the original and several fatty-acid amounts are not quantified, but the nutrient mix is broader than a yeast-only tablet.</p>
76 Budget

Rice Protein Powder Plain

NutriBiotic
<p>A comparatively low-cost serving raises protein substantially while retaining phosphorus and adding iron and manganese. It costs somewhat more per serving than the original, but the much larger protein contribution may provide better practical value for protein-focused use.</p>
74 Value

Organic Rice Protein Powder Chocolate

NutriBiotic
<p>Rice protein provides far more protein than the original while preserving phosphorus and adding iron and manganese. The serving costs more, but the larger protein contribution and plant-based format can justify the trade-off for protein-focused use.</p>
75 Value

Whey Factors Natural Strawberry Flavor

Natural Factors
<p>Whey concentrate supplies substantial protein, phosphorus, calcium, vitamin C, and a small enzyme blend. It costs more per serving than the original, yet the greater protein delivery makes it a more capable value choice for active nutrition.</p>
73 Value

100% Whey Protein Isolate Dutch Chocolate

NutraBio
<p>Whey isolate provides substantial protein with calcium, phosphorus, magnesium, and potassium in a low-fat formula. The larger package supports practical value, although the serving cost is higher and an implausible cholesterol unit should be checked on the label.</p>
