Many years ago I recommended Brewers yeast tabs and found that it was
causing a lot of problems. I know longer recommend it.

I also have 3 kids, homeschool and run a business, so I can relate to the
homecooking issue. My solution was choosing the best dry food I can
afford, feeding the best canned food I can afford, homecooking ONLY when I
have a chance (most often it is twice a month and I make up a recipe to
last 6 days) and give them something fresh everyday. For the something
fresh everyday, i will give whatever we have for dinner. I am a pet
nutritionist and I don't even do the best, so I definitely don't expect
others to.
