Brewer’s Yeast: The Ingredient With Purpose

Brewer’s Yeast: The Ingredient With Purpose

Not all ingredients are born equal. Some are just there to bulk things up. Brewer’s yeast? That’s a statement ingredient. Chosen. Designed. For a reason.Why We Use It

We don’t throw random stuff into our treats. Every piece has a job. Brewer’s yeast makes your dog’s treat taste amazing. But more than that, it fuels their health without a single grain.

What It Does for Your Dog

  • A natural flavour enhancer dogs go crazy for.
  • Packed with B vitamins for skin, coat, and energy.
  • Vegan and sustainable — ours is grown on molasses, not wheat.
  • Helps maintain a healthy gut microbiome.
  • Strengthens the immune system with beta-glucans.
  • Rich in selenium and zinc — minerals linked to healthy thyroid function and immune defence.


The Science Bit

  • Brewer’s yeast is Saccharomyces cerevisiae, a microorganism.
  • Unlike traditional production (often on barley or hops), ours uses molasses fermentation — making it vegan and grain-free.
  • Safe supplement for dogs, widely used in veterinary nutrition
  • High in amino acids and trace minerals beneficial to dogs.
  • Distinct from “nutritional yeast” but similar in nutritional profile.
  • Beta-glucans from yeast are studied for their role in immune support.


The Takeaway

Brewer’s yeast isn’t filler. It’s design. It makes W’ZIS taste great, stay vegan, and deliver real health benefits. Grain-free. Dog-ready. For the curious, more here: VCA Hospitals — Brewer’s Yeast.
