Levex is Turkey's first and Only Yeast Extract Manufacturer. Yeast extract is made up of natural components from the yeast cell: proteins, amino acids, carbohydrates, vitamins and minerals. To produce yeast extract, the contents of the yeast cell are broken down by enzymes and the cell wall is removed. Simply put, yeast extract is made of natural components from the yeast cell without the surrounding cell wall. Among these components, it is primarily the mix of proteins and amino acids that provide yeast extract with its unique seasoning qualities.
