I had suffered from glyphosate poisoning from eating GMO and non-organic foods. Glyphosate is sprayed on all of our non organic food and feed crops and is now concentrated in beef, pork, and chicken meat. Glyphosate is not just used in RoundUp to kill weeds in farms, it's a patented and powerful antibiotic. It's found in all our processed foods because it has contaminated our drinking water. Basically, glyphosate destroyed all my good bacteria in my gut which caused a health crisis dealing with different infections. Result was years of allergies to certain foods like peanuts, gluten, dairy, and sugar. I would get extreme dry skin where I scratched until my skin bleed, hives on skin, gout like symptoms in my joints, swollen and painful lymph nodes in my neck, watery stool, frequent urges to use bathroom, extreme bloating and gas in gut day and night, pain around my liver and pancreas, sore thigh muscles and chronic arthritis from autoimmune disease, low quality sleep from body pain, low energy and lethargy throughout day, sick easily due to low immune system, brain fog and mental exhaustion, easily stressed or high adrenal fatigue, gingivitis gum disease, overworked liver and pancreas that were weakening; life was almost unbearable. I realized that my liver and pancreas were failing and early stages of diabetes type 2 was beginning to show in blood tests. Doctors and diatician didn't know what I was suffering from. Told me to cut back on sugar which I did but no help there. One of the supplements that helped me recover my life back is nutritional yeast. Taking the nutritional yeast is now part of my life to get my body's B vitamins back to normal since glyphosate caused my Candida infection and non alcoholic fatty liver disease, which both depleted my B vitamins.
First, I had to control my infections to stop depleting my B vitamins. To fight Candida, I use a good multi strain probiotic that had at least 6 strains of Lactobacillus bacteria; taking it three times a day, I tripled the recommended dose. I included L-glutamine powder in order to start healing my IBS and leaky gut faster by making collagen to heal my intestines. To assist in the speed of making more collagen to heal my leaky intestine, I also took zinc, vitamin C, organic protein powder, and Fulvic acid. I made my own kefir, kimchi, and kombucha to include in my diet to increase the good probiotics. I supplement with Vitamin A drops, an antioxidant to protect gut from further collagen damage. My sick liver was not making bile. I took taurine to improve bile production and flow from liver to remove gall stones in my gall bladder; the stones cleared because sharp pain around liver stopped. I took milk thistle to speed up healing of my liver. I took Swedish Bitters to improve digestion and increase healing speed of my pancreas and liver. I used a dental water pick with iodine and baking soda in the water to rid gingivitis/candida in my gums and mouth while my immune system focused on cleaning candida yeast overgrowth and infection in my blood and organs. I took MSM simultaneously to increase sulfur in my system to increase speed of healing for bones, muscle, skin, and joints. I made and drink a kale shake daily to boost potassium intake and fiber in my gut to feed the good bacteria. I took nutritional yeast enriched with B1 and other B vitamins to help my body metabolize sugar so I don't feel muscle pain after I eat; with B1, I can now metabolize sugar better.
Some supplements and routines were started a few months earlier, but they didn't do much or last long for most of my physical conditions. Exception was the caprylic-acid, Saccharomyces boulardii yeast, and nutritional yeast.
I took caprylic-acid slow release with magnesium, which noticeably suppressed the candida yeast infection in my gut; I immediately felt relief with less bloating in two days, joints and muscle pain improved to where I can tolerate it daily. Still, caprylic-acid was not good enough as candida yeast is very resilient and grows back quickly due to my weakened immune system, and lack of good yeast population in gut to displace the bad candida yeast.
Started the Saccharomyces Boulardii yeast supplement and all my physical ailments turned around quickly. My dry skin condition was gone in a few days. My infections were under control but was still feeling muscle pain and joint pain after I eat a meal.
Within one day of taking this nutritional yeast, my muscle and joint pain went away whenever I eat my meals. Now my body can metabolize sugar again, my immune system is able to make more antibodies to fight infections at the cellular level, and I have improved my adrenal fatigue with more energy.
After a few months the treatment I gave myself eliminated food allergies and sensitivities too; no more food related allergies to peanuts, dairy, gluten, and sugar. I also cut out all alcohol, junk food, most gluten foods, started a low gluten diet, and followed a ketogenic diet which helped tremendously.
Eat organic and support our organic farmers and avoid as much as possible glyphosate poisoned foods which started this global health crisis.
Update 7/16/19,
While on the keto diet, I discovered that I actually stopped craving junk food and sugary snacks. I also started taking sea salt since I stopped eating salty junk foods. My energy levels are now amazing, I no longer have any signs of a leaky gut, all traces of candida infection in gut are gone, and I am still able to eat gluten, peanuts, sugar, and dairy foods without issues.
Discovered that I needed to supplement with Magnesium glycinate daily because my intake of zinc and Vitamin C depleted Magnesium in my body. Lookup in Google "mineral interrelationships circle" to see how all minerals in our body impact each other.
Discovered through reading medical journals that B1 and B6 are essential to our diet because they help our body dispose of Advanced Glycation End products (AGEs) which we create when we eat sugar with fat or with protein foods causing formation of sticky protein and fat in our blood. AGEs are glycotoxins which are oxidative compounds that result in accelerated aging, collagen breakdown (our whole body and hair especially intestines are mostly made of collagen), cancer, etc (the list of diseases is too long to write here, look it up in Google). Basically, all processed foods have AGEs, which is why most of us are getting sick or gaining weight. Although we won't be able to avoid all processed foods, this nutritional yeast supplement does assist our body to neutralize the effects of AGEs in our diet. That is how and why this supplement really worked for me in my improving health.

Taking a star off because I purchased this exact same product a year ago, and the container was *much* bigger, despite it also being 10oz. At first I thought maybe they decided to just fill it more densely to save on plastic packaging, but there was actually a ton of empty air in this new packaging. Is this really still 10oz?!The attached photos show the side-by-side old and new containers. This one seems like it's 2/3 the size!

For those who are reviewing and saying ‘is this really 10 oz?’ And especially those who take stars off just for that...it IS 10 ounces. I will give them the benefit of the doubt and assume they don’t own a scale to verify for themselves. The company likely took the previous reviews into consideration and updated their packaging. The original container was way oversized for the amount of product.

This nutritional yeast has been great in my recipies. I have tried other brands in the past. Some have been to fine while others just didn't have a good taste. This Now Foods brand has the perfect texture and taste that I was looking for. It has a slight cheese flavor when added on top of pizza and spaghetti. However when added to smoothies and wraps I don't notice a cheese flavor at all. Very versatile.
