Thread: Bragg Liquid Aminos and Lewis Lab Brewers yeast, excellent natural source for all am

I believe the best way to ingest the necessary building blocks of the human body is with mother natures cookbook.

Step away from mass producing overseas chemical plants.

You guys really should get on this. All natural Amino acid's. both go well on foods. like veggies rice and many more. Why take synthetic when you can get it straight fro the earth.

Bragg Liquid Aminos is a Certified NON-GMO liquid protein concentrate, derived from healthy soybeans, that contains the following Essential and Non-essential Amino Acids in naturally occurring amounts:

16 Amino Acids

• Alanine
• Arginine
• Aspartic Acid
• Glutamic Acid
• Glycine
• Histidine
• Isoleucine
• Leucine

• Methionine
• Phenylalanine
• Proline
• Serine
• Threonine
• Tyrosine
• Valine
• Lysine

And the Brewers Yeast

Let's see, the liquid aminos. 160 mg of sodium and 310 mg of amino acids per 1/2 tsp.
So 5 grams of aminos nets you your entire daily allowance of sodium. And a half a teaspoon? Man, that's a miniscule portion.

The brewer's yeast looks okay, especially the vitamin and mineral content. But the amino acid profile is inferior to whey protein, and the cost is 16 bucks for a 16 ounce can, which is 16 portions. So it's a good supplement, but a crappy bang for the buck.

The liquid amino is basically unfiltered super salty soy sauce. So I only use it as a topping. A few squirts and its great on rice and steamed veggies. Same with the yeast.

Yea the brewers yeast is pricey but if youre eating right youre already getting all your required nutrients. It just tastes good and peptides cant bound to form specific polypeptides if its missing that one amino. thats when the body just flushes it out. So It a great way to balance your intake of aminos, IMO.

Its worth looking into.

True, can't add whey to much because of the taste, so the yeast would add a nice protein boost. Only thing that worries me on the yeast are all the micro minerals. The yeast and a multi would put you way over 100% RDA. Might be no big deal, but I'm not well versed in the body's handling of minerals with sub-milligram RDAs.
