What it is

Bakers yeast beta-glucan is a type of soluble fiber derived from the cell walls of yeast, commonly *Saccharomyces cerevisiae*. It is typically produced through a process of yeast cultivation and extraction.

Why it's used

Manufacturers add yeast beta-glucan as a source of dietary fiber, often for its potential health benefits. It can also act as a stabilizer or thickener in some food products.

Health notes

In the US, bakers yeast beta-glucan is generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA for use as a dietary ingredient. Scientific reviews suggest that beta-glucans may support immune function and help maintain normal cholesterol levels. The European Food Safety Authority (EFSA) has also evaluated beta-glucans, recognizing their contribution to normal blood cholesterol levels. Evidence regarding the extent of these effects at typical dietary intakes is ongoing.

Allergen info

Yeast is not one of the nine major allergens recognized by the FDA. Beta-glucan derived from bakers yeast is also gluten-free.
