Yeast Extract
The best yeast extract is undoubtedly the Essential own brand Organic, they also produce a non organic version I imagine as it is cheaper; I see no other retail reason. Essentials yeast extract is especially made from a unique production that is designed only to produce the extract.
With B12 Meridian yeast extract contains 3.5µg per 5g.
Meridian's main product is 12.6% salt. It says 5% Sodium on the label. Their other product has no added salt resulting in a content of 0.8% salt. The main advantage of meridian's products over Essential is that they have B12, something those who have poor absorption rates or reduced intake of B12 welcome.
Folic Acid | B1 | B2 | B3 | B6 | |
Wi Salt | .371 | 3.4 | 2.5 | 77 | 1.7 |
No Salt | .659 | 2.7 | 3 | 55 | 2.9 |
If the base yeast extract was the same product, given the removal of 12.6% salt I would expect the [No Salt ]version's nutritional data to increase by 14.4%, clearly this is not the case.
