Yes, brewers yeast is good and works well with the garlic. Lots of people use both. Just prinkle a bit of the powder on their food.
The best buy I've found (recommended here) is from Holland and Barrett. You get a decent sized bag of powder in a box for just under £4 - Debittered Brewers Yeast - so it tastes better for them too.

I dont think it's harmful in small amounts - you would have to feed an awful lot to cause problems

Re: fleaing products

Can someone let me know the dosage of the brewer's yeast and garlic please? Is it just raw, crushed or chopped garlic? Do they eat it ok?
