Besides being important in the fermentation of foods and beverages, yeasts have shown numerous beneficial effects on human health. Among these, probiotic effects are the most well known health effects including prevention and treatment of intestinal diseases and immunomodulatory effects. Other beneficial functions of yeasts are improvement of bioavailability of minerals through the hydrolysis of phytate, folate biofortification and detoxification of mycotoxins due to surface binding to the yeast cell wall.
除了在食品和饮料的发酵中很重要外，酵母对人类健康也表现出了许多有益的影响。其中，益生菌作用是最广为人知的健康效应，包括预防和治疗肠道疾病以及免疫调节作用。酵母的其他有益功能包括通过植酸、叶酸生物强化和细胞壁表面结合来水解植酸、解毒霉菌毒素，从而提高矿物质的生物利用度。
