In vitro digestibility of bioprocessed brewer's spent yeast: Demonstrating protein quality and gut microbiome modulation potential.

With an ever-increasing global population and dwindling natural resources, a shift towards more sustainable food systems is required. Important aspects to aid in this transition are the reduction of food waste, and a movement towards non-animal protein sources. Brewers spent yeast (BSY) is an abundant by-product of the brewing industry, which is generally regarded as waste, despite its high nutritional value.
