What is brewers yeast? (a.k.a. nutritional yeast)? and how is it made?

is it a by-produkt? is it a waste-produkt? could you possibly make it

yourself? how come there is so much protein in it?

Brewer's yeast and nutritional yeast are actually two different things.

Brewer's yeast is a by-product of the brewing industry, and Nutritional

yeast (better tasting) is made as a supplement. I read in " The

Vegetarian Way " that the only nutritional yeast that has been *proven*

to contain vitamin B-12 is Red Star brand. Don't know if that's true or

not.
