Angel Yeast Champions Sustainable Gastronomy with Innovative Weight Management Solutions
In a groundbreaking move, global yeast manufacturer Angel Yeast is leading the charge in sustainable gastronomy. They are promoting low-carbon healthy diets, seeking to reshape the nutritional landscape and combat global health challenges, utilizing innovative yeast-based products to transform weight management approaches.
Yeast Power Unveiled
As part of Sustainable Gastronomy Day on June 18th, Angel Yeast is highlighting its “Weight Management Year” initiative. Launched during Yichang’s National Nutrition Week in May 2024, the campaign centers on “The Awakening of Yeast Power.” It expertly blends nutritional science with public demonstrations to showcase yeast’s unique advantages for weight management and metabolic health. A key innovation is AngeoPro® yeast protein, a breakthrough from a decade of research.
The program has already engaged thousands, with a significant success rate. Seventy percent of the nearly 1,000 active participants saw weight loss, averaging 1 kilogram per person. Zhang Yan, chief engineer at Angel Yeast, emphasized the importance of combining a balanced diet and physical activity. Their approach leverages technologies to reduce salt, oil, and sugar.
“The foundation of effective weight management is maintaining a balanced diet and physical activity, Angel Yeast has innovatively developed a range of products, including yeast protein, low-sodium yeast extract seasonings and low-sugar soft bread, leveraging advanced technologies to reduce salt, oil and sugar to bring a more science-based and efficient approach of weight management.”

According to the World Obesity Federation, the number of obese adults worldwide is projected to reach 1.13 billion by 2030. This stark projection underscores the urgency for proactive measures to combat obesity (World Obesity Atlas 2024).
The Science Behind Yeast Protein
Yeast protein, a type of probiotic, alleviates intestinal health degradation due to aging. It enhances the gut microbiome, which promotes overall gut health. AngeoPro® yeast protein, non-animal derived, is environmentally friendly, safe, and nutrient-rich. It offers a valuable protein source, aiding in sustainable development and improving the global protein supply.
Zhang noted that yeast protein has a complete set of amino acids, matching the ideal amino acid profile recommended by the Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO). With a 90 percent digestion and absorption rate and a biological value of 87, its amino acid score is equal to 1, surpassing soy protein and matching whey protein.
AngeoPro® yeast protein can increase the abundance of Bacteroides the taiotaomicron in the gut, which can enhance the body’s metabolic efficiency and positively impact weight management. Yeast protein is becoming a core component of daily diets, driving healthier eating habits.
The functional applications of AngeoPro® yeast protein are expanding into muscle reconstruction, sports injury recovery, digestive health, immune support, and lipid metabolism. Angel Yeast is committed to promoting yeast protein’s global application, contributing to sustainable diets and lifestyles.
