Live brewer's yeast is not a new product. It has been known
and respected by generations of Europeans for its exceptional qualities.
Unlike nutritional or regular brewer's yeast which is usually sold in bulk,
live brewer's yeast is therapeutic. This is due to the fact that live
brewer's yeast contains up to 20 billion living cells per gram (the
equivalent of 2 capsules). The difference has to do with the drying process.
Whereas regular brewer's yeast is dried at a high temperature, killing most
of the yeast cells, live brewer's yeast is dried at a relatively low
temperature (less than 30º celcius). Palmer live brewer's yeast is prepared
from the best Saccharomyces cerevisiae cultures from France.
Palmer live brewer's yeast, rich in proteins, vitamins and minerals (16
amino acids, 17 vitamins, 14 mineral salts), is considered to have a high
nutrient content, whereas its therapeutic effects have been confirmed year
after year by scientific research.
BENEFITS OF LIVE BREWER'S YEAST
The latest scientific research reveals that live brewer's yeast, in
addition to being a source of vitamins and nutrients, improves overall
vitamin absorption and reduces nutrient deficiencies due to a poor diet.
Live brewer's yeast helps to reconstitute the intestinal flora. For
instance, it can be used during or after antibiotic use. Or as a result of
intestinal problems (ie., diarrhea or constipation).
Live brewer's yeast has a beneficial effect on hair, nails and skin,
particularly for those suffering from furunculosis, acne and eczema.
(See Reinforced with Selenium and Silica.)
It is an ideal supplement for women, either pregnant or nursing.
REINFORCED WITH SELENIUM AND SILICA
SELENIUM
Selenium protects liver cells and improves the liver's ability to filter
toxins, which benefits the skin's ability to fight disorders such as eczema
and psoriasis. It improves metabolism of residual fat cells and thus
protects the heart from cholesterol build up. Selenium is also a powerful
antioxidant, being the essential component of a key antioxidant enzyme
necessary for normal cellular growth and development. Also known to slow the
aging process.
NOTE: The body's ability to assimilate Selenium is considerably
enhanced when taken in conjunction with an organic substrate such as live
brewer's yeast.
SILICA
Silica is well known for its anti-ageing properties. Its primary
constituent is collagen. Without it the skin loses its elasticity, hair and
finger nails become brittle.
Other beneficial properties include: remineralizer, diuretic, helps in
forming scar tissue.
DIRECTIONS:
Normal use: 2 capsules daily, morning or evening, or between meals
on an empty stomach for approximately 2 months. Repeat several times a year.
Intensive use: 4 capsules daily, morning or evening, or between
meals on an empty stomach. Proceed for 1 month and reduce to 2 capsules
daily for the second month.
History
Live brewer's yeast, or Saccharomyces cerevisiae, which is its
latin, scientific name, has been known since the dawn of civilization, up to
at least 5000 years before Christ. Ancient peoples such as the Babylonians,
the Egyptians and later the Celts, used it for its powers of fermentation.
In the Bible, brewer's yeast was known as "levain".
Pliny the elder reveals that 377 years before Christ, Hippocrates, who
gave us the Hippocratic oath, discovered the diuretic powers of live
brewer's yeast while using it in his medicinal treatments.
Over the centuries, throughout the middle-ages up to the European
renaissance, those knowledgeable in the healing arts continued to use live
brewer's yeast in their treatments.
In the nineteenth century, the great French scientist, Pasteur, revealed
the process of anaerobic fermentation using live brewer's yeast.
Today, scientific experiments prove what people have known throughout the
ages: that live brewer's yeast is an exceptional nutritive supplement, and
in addition, a natural remedy for those suffering from furonculosis, acne,
diabetes, stress, poor nourishment and a host of other ailments. Finally, we
can say that live brewer's yeast has proven beyond a doubt that it can stand
the test of time
