Solgar Yeast Powder, 14 oz

I used this product to increase milk supply. This stuff definitely works. I was using this along with Let There Be Milk drops. I have run out of the drops but I still take this stuff everyday. Noticed an 8-10oz increase within 2-3 days of using. It does taste nasty but I mix a small amount into my oatmeal everyday and it’s tolerable. I also use it in lactation cookies and homemade granola and I can’t even taste it. I wouldn’t recommend adding more than 3-4 tablespoons into the cookies unless you have enough ingredients to cover the taste. I have mixed it into peanut butter as well which I think may be the best way to consume it. From what I have read this is one of the better tasting brewers yeast products available, the others are very very bitter. Using my husbands account to leave review.

I was worried because I’d heard these kind of things can taste bitter and gross. However, this tastes great! It took a couple samples to adjust to having that much yeast flavor in my mouth (if you’ve never eaten straight up yeast, you may need to brace yourself for the first taste) but it didn’t taste bitter AT ALL. I’m taking it as a health supplement as well as trying to induce lactation. I add it to oatmeal and it just makes it taste and feel like a bread pudding or something which is fine. I can add it to smoothies and barely taste it. It’s definitely best in meals that involve cheese, meats, bread, beans and/or sauces. But to be perfectly honest, I can easily pour a scoop of this into my mouth, chew a little and swallow! It’s not a flavor I crave but it doesn’t taste bad at all. Definitely, definitely recommend! Just after a week of taking my skin seems to be clearing up, I have more energy, and while this wasn’t ever an issue for me it’s kept me super regular as a bonus. Can’t speak for its performance as a galactagogue yet but I’m optimistic! Definitely add this to your diet if you’d like an extra boost of vitamins and nutrients!

Struggled for a while with breastfeeding and milk supply. I did a ton of research to help increase my supply and so found myself trying multiple products as a result of my findings. I tried several different recipes and products that contained ingredients such as oats, ground flaxseed, brewer's yeast, fenugreek, and fennel. I found that consistently the recipes that used brewer's yeast (either alone or in combination with others) did make a noticeable difference while recipes that used any combination of the others without the brewer's yeast, there wasn't as really noticeable difference. Additionally, cost comparison between the other products, you definitely get more for your money with this product. Canister is easy to open, scoop out what you need without mess, and reseal. (as opposed to the flaxseed I bought from the store, came in a bag that doesn't reseal and hard to get a level scoop out of). Obviously those other foods and ingredients work for some people or they wouldn't be so frequently recommended/studied so if they work for you, great. But if not, I definitely recommend trying this product or adding it to your arsenal if you still need an extra boost! Edit: I have been using this in a brownie mix because it is so delicious. Several friends of mine who are also breastfeeding have had increased production as well and they all want the recipe. Thought I would include it here too since it is so easy. Brownie Mix with ingredients specified on the box. 4 TBSP Brewer's yeast 1 TBSP Ground Flaxseed 1 TBSP water extra I mix the water, oil, egg, yeast and flaxseed together. The brewer's yeast tends to work better when first mixed with warm water. Then I add the brownie mix and bake according to directions. That's it! Yummy lactation brownies that my husband won't touch so all for me!

I purchased this item to help increase my breast milk supply. It was recommended by my lactation consultant. I have to say that even though I tried many different options to increase my milk supply, this did work. The taste is horrible, but if your using it for health reasons there are ways to get around that. My lactation consultant recommended that I use it in baking to make lactation cookies. Well I didn’t feel like baking so I would mix it as directed with Juicy Juice apple juice. The sweetness of the apple juice made it a lot easier to chug down. After 2 days of using as directed with apple juice, I pumped twice as much breast milk as I had before using Brewers yeast. I did not use this for any other reason than to increase my milk supply so I recommend giving it a try to women who need help in that area.

I bought this because I have only been able to pump enough to supply my 6 month old while I’m away at work- on the verge of running out almost daily, frustrated with myself for not being able to keep up. I’m not against giving him formula, but want to give him the absolute best source of nutrition, tailored to him. Within 24 hours, I’ve already seen an increase over just 2 pumping sessions. Before, I would pump 3-4 ounces while at work, this morning I pumped 5. I got home 4 hours later and pumped 7 ounces! I’m so happy and have relieved anxiety about running low. The only con I’ve found so far, as many others, is the taste. This is disgusting. 🤢 I took one tablespoon mixed with a shot of orange juice and chased it with more juice, bearable, but not enjoyable. I’m currently making lactation bites with oats and peanut butter, flax and chia seed. Hopefully that will cover the taste. Despite that, I’ll continue to use this product so I can build my freezer stash.

I really struggle with milk supply, so I switched to being a almost exclusive pumper for my baby and have drank a smoothie with about a tablespoon of this brewers yeast in it every day. I have three going on four very large tubs of frozen breastmilk after only a month of drinking this smoothie. And that’s just on top of the milk I’m able to feed my baby throughout the day. My milk quality is also really great, very fatty and filling. My one recommendation would be to make your smoothie very flavorful to counteract the taste—brewer’s yeast is bitter. But with cocoa powder, peanut butter, protein powder, banana etc. I can overpower the bitter taste with ease. It also works great in baking 👍 Again, just make sure you have enough to overpower the bitter taste. Would strongly recommend to mama’s afraid of losing their supply. ❤️

Love to take brewers yeast for my hair and skin, my pets love it too sprinkled on their food. This brand is easy to mix with water and drink not bitter like another brand I tried. I always feel like I have more energy when I drink this and can tell the difference when I don't. If you are not used to taking it , it might give you gas at first but that will go away with continued use. I also take it to keep the mosquitoes off me and it does seem to work , my friends will get bit like crazy and I won't have any. But I drink this every morning. I think it keeps the bugs off my pets too they are mostly indoors but like to go outside and play in the grass on occasion which I hate for them to do but they like it. I have a cat and a ferret and I always check them for bugs after they have been outside but they have never gotten any. The ferret could get heartworm from a mosquito bite and it would kill her.I give her this to keep them away. I also sprinkle them both with diatomaceous earth rubbed into their fur before they get to go outside and between that with the brewers yeast they have never had a bug or flea on them without chemical repellents that I feel are unsafe. Their fur is super soft also and they hardly shed.

The product is good but delivery is very slow.

Really helped me increase my breast milk supply. Go for it. I use it in oats and in lactation cookies.

Product has expiry date remaining less than 6 months though the brewers yeast seems to be good.
