" Have you guys heard of nutritional yeast? I&amp;#x27;ve read that it has all kinds of health benefits, but, honestly, I haven&amp;#x27;t given it a try. So, I recruited an expert to give us the scoop... **** Important point of clarification: &amp;quot;Nutritional&amp;quot; yeast is not the yeast you bake with, says Melina Jampolis, M.D., a health expert for CNN. &amp;quot;Nutritional yeast is a type of yeast that has been specially cultured for optimal nutrition value and good taste,&amp;quot; she says. &amp;quot;It is a very good source of complete protein (important for vegans and vegetarians), fiber, and B vitamins. It is definitely a healthy and tasty addition to a balanced diet. Lots of vegans use it in cooking, and I&amp;#x27;m addicted to these kale chips that are baked with it as they taste like Parmesan crusted chips but are super healthy.&amp;quot; Where can you buy it? Most health foodie stores sell nutritional yeast, and you might even get lucky at your local grocery store. Just ask next time you&amp;#x27;re out shopping. Do you guys cook with/eat nutritional yeast? More wisdom from Dr. G: *Do FitFlops really work? *I just had an eye infection, is my makeup OK to wear? *Is it dangerous to use NyQuil as a sleep aid?
