Brewer’s yeast is great for the gut because it can boost immune function in a handful of ways. It starts by helping clean out bad bacteria via the introduction of healthy bacteria known as prebiotics and probiotics. Furthermore, it can prevent fungal toxins and harmful bacteria from sticking to the intestines and causing more serious issues. Additionally, brewer's yeast helps promote the integrity of the gut barrier and fights off infection in the digestive system.
