Nutritional Yeast for Vegan Sports and Weight Management Foods

ART-NY-078 is a heat-inactivated nutritional yeast powder developed for manufacturers formulating vegan foods with higher protein density, savory taste, and controlled calorie positioning. Unlike active dry yeast, this product is not intended for leavening or fermentation; it is used as a functional dry ingredient in plant-based nutrition systems. Typical specification targets include protein 45-55% on dry basis, moisture not more than 6.0%, ash 5-8%, total dietary fiber 20-30%, and beta-glucan-containing yeast cell wall fractions typically 10-20%, depending on production lot and analytical method.

The ingredient provides a naturally umami, lightly nutty profile that can help round off pea, soy, rice, oat, and mixed plant-protein bases. Particle size is commonly supplied around 40-80 mesh for dispersibility in dry mixes and inclusion in bars or extruded snacks; alternative milling targets can be reviewed for contract volumes. For adjacent inactive yeast ingredients, see our nutritional yeast category. Bulk quote on request is available for ART-NY-078 by sack, pallet, or consolidated export shipment.

• Vegan sports powders: dry blends for shakes, smoothies, and meal-style nutrition powders where yeast protein, B-complex-associated nutritional value, and savory balance are required.
• Weight-management foods: bars, sachets, soups, and powdered mixes formulated for portion-controlled diets, satiety-oriented texture, and plant-based positioning. This is a food ingredient application and is not supplied for medical or therapeutic use.
• Plant-based ready meals: seasoning bases for vegan pasta fillings, meat-alternative crumbles, savory sauces, dips, and nutritional topping blends.
• Supplement-style food formats: tablets, granules, capsules, or stick packs where inactive yeast is used as a food-derived nutrient carrier and flavor component, subject to local regulatory classification.
• Clean-label flavor support: yeast-derived umami can reduce reliance on heavy salt loading while supporting fuller flavor perception in vegan formulations.
• R&D trial work: ArtemisYeast can provide lot-specific parameters for pilot batches, including moisture, protein, mesh profile, microbiology, and sensory notes. To begin a procurement review, use the request quote form and reference ART-NY-078.

Store unopened 10 kg foil-lined sacks in a clean, dry warehouse at 5-25 °C, away from direct sunlight, steam lines, strong odors, and floor moisture. Recommended relative humidity is below 65%. Under these conditions, typical shelf life is up to 24 months from production date, subject to the confirmed lot CoA and local import requirements.

After opening, reseal the inner liner and use promptly to limit moisture pickup and flavor drift. Because ART-NY-078 is a fine dry powder, operators should minimize dust generation, use local exhaust ventilation where appropriate, and follow site procedures for powder transfer. The product is inactive, so it should not be specified where live CFU performance is required. For wet systems, add under agitation to avoid lumping; hydration behavior can vary with protein source, hydrocolloids, sweeteners, and fat powders in the final matrix.

ART-NY-078 is supplied for industrial food and supplement-style food manufacturing with lot-level traceability and specification review. Standard quality checks may include appearance, odor, moisture, protein, ash, particle size, total plate count, yeast and mold, coliforms, and relevant pathogen screening according to the agreed specification. A Certificate of Analysis is available for each commercial lot.

Manufacturing is managed under HACCP-aligned food safety controls. Documentation available on request may include food-grade declaration, allergen statement, GMO-status statement, vegan suitability statement, country-of-origin documents, and certification documents such as ISO 22000, FSSC 22000, Halal, or Kosher where applicable to the confirmed supply chain. Buyers can review our documentation approach at quality and compliance. Final acceptance criteria, labeling language, and import documentation should be confirmed before purchase order release.
