I am of the view that (good) supplements are very helpful BUT taking anything every day is probably not wise. Let the body do it's own thing now and then.

Nutritional yeast is great. Here is my smoothie recipe, make it in a blender that will crush ice or get a real smoothie machine at Walmart or Sears or wherever:

(makes 2-3 big smoothies)

2 bananas
2 granny smith apples
A few strawberries
maybe throw a plum or kiwi in there
Yogurt with active cultures, any flavor or plain
maybe throw a tad of cottage cheese in there
Juice of 1/2 a lemon
1/3 cup whey protein powder
1/3 cup nutritional yeast
4 ice cubes
1/2 cup OJ
1/2 cup milk
1 gram Vit C powder
1 teaspoon flaxseed oil
1/2 teaspoon spirulina
2 teaspoons or 3 magnesium citrate (premix with a little warm water to dissolve
maybe throw some Vit E in there...


you get the idea,,, even the kids will drink this cocktail and ask for more!

Do not substitute whey with soy. Whey helps your body make gluthaione, someone spell that for me. Too much soy may not be good for you. Too much whey is never a problem.

Some people say not to blender the whey at high speed, maybe depends on the type but it's the only way that I know of to get in there.
