BOOSTS BRAINPOWER: Marmite is rich in vitamin B12 and folic acid, which can improve both the short and long-term memory.

HEALS THE HEART: Experts at the University of Bristol found Marmite can help those who have had a heart attack to live longer. It contains vitamin B1, or benfotiamine, which can speed up the healing of heart tissue after a cardiac arrest.


TACKLES ANAEMIA: Iron deficiency is increasingly common, especially in women. Marmite could combat this as it is not only a great source of iron itself but it also contains iodine which helps the body absorb iron.

MAKES SKIN GLOW: An ingredient called thiamin helps your body get the most out of the energy and nutrients in food, which helps keep your skin looking good.


BEATS DEPRESSION: Low levels of B vitamins have been linked to stress and depression. Just one serving of Marmite a day will give you 60 per cent of the B vitamins recommended by the Department of Health.


FIGHTS DIABETES: The benfotiamine in Marmite is also a potential new treatment for diabetes. Scientists have found the vitamin can stop glucose building up in blood. Tests on mice show it also reduces potential complications from the disease.


MARMITE NUTRITION
As well as yeast extract, marmite contains vegetable extract, salt, niacin, thiamin, spice extracts, folic acid, riboflavin, celery extract and vitamin B12. It contains 9 calories in a 4-g serving. Marmite is very low in sugar, low in calories, contains no saturated fat and is completely vegetarian. To complement marmite spread, the Marmite company also produces marmite cereal bars, bread sticks, rice cakes and cheddar bites.

HEALTH BENEFITS
Brewer's yeast is a good source of B complex vitamins, selenium and chromium; it also contains pantothenic acid (B5), pyridoxine (B6), niacin (B3), riboflavin (B2), thiamine (B1), folic acid (B9) and biotin (B7). These vitamins have a number of health benefits, including helping to break down carbohydrates, proteins and fats to provide your body with energy. They also help to maintain a healthy nervous system, support your digestive muscles and keep your eyes, hair skin, mouth and liver in good health.

Seems to contain a lot of things which could be good for pigeons and unlike pigeons products is relatively cheap
