Innovative solutions for the food industry
Food ingredients based on Saccharomyces cerevisiae yeasts represent a modern and highly valued component in nutrition and gastronomy. With their naturally high content of quality proteins, essential amino acids, B-vitamin complex, minerals, and bioactive compounds such as beta-glucans and mannan-oligosaccharides, they are used not only as a nutritional enrichment of foods but also as carriers of a distinctive umami taste. They find applications in the production of bakery goods, cereal mixes, soups, sauces, vegetarian and vegan alternatives, where they enhance both flavor profile and nutritional value. Their benefits are also recognized in the field of functional foods and nutraceuticals, where they support vitality, gut health, and immune system strength – making them a key ingredient of modern, balanced nutrition. Mráz Agro is one of Europe’s leading processors of Saccharomyces cerevisiae yeasts.
