Let me explain…
Nutritional yeast is very different from the yeast that we see used in baking, dairy and alcohol as it is completely inactive. It is grown specifically for it’s nutritional qualities from pure strains of Saccharomyces Cerevisiae (Latin, don’t ask!!!) grown on a mixture of cane and beet molasses.
