Welcome to the forum, @Amanda Hunter!

I'm not clear on what you are asking. I think there is a typo in your sentence.

Are you asking if the yeast extract in crisps and snacks, etc. can trigger an episode of ataxia in a person with gluten ataxia?

Or, are you asking if a person with gluten ataxia can safely eat crisps and snacks, etc. that contain yeast extract?

Here is an article on yeast that might be helpful--there can be trace amount of gluten in some yeast extracts, so if you're super sensitive you may want to avoid the ingredient:

Hi Amanda

I had a friend whose father was a coeliac and he was the sort of man who would be very thorough and ring manufacturers if he was in any doubt about a product containing gluten.  He made a point of buying Tesco's yeast extract.  I've used it myself more recently as I missed Marmite which I do know can contain traces of gluten, and I haven't had any issues.   You may wish to contact Tesco's HQ to be doubly sure, but I think it is safe.

      Hello Scott, I did lose weight at the beginning of diagnosis and I know that it will take time to put on the weight I did lose. I think I have no appetite because this has been a roller coaster of emotions and a Big change on my body and its out of whack mentally and pysically. I think I am just depressed to be honest.

      It's easy to forget that it's not only the concentration of gluten in a given food item that's significant but also the total amount of gluten we consume over a period of time. This thing and that thing may meet the gluten-free requirement of not exceeding 20 ppm but if we eat enough of those things in a reasonably short amount of time it can have a cumulative effect because our bodies aren't given enough time to clear the gluten we have already consumed. Just curious. Did you know the fries were wheat breaded when you ate them?

      Hi! I try to steer clear of dairy and I cut out oats at the same time I did gluten products. It may be that something I had recently that was labeled as gluten-free contained oats. I am just so confused as to why I didn’t react when I know I ate wheat flour (breaded fries) but then reacted to something else 9 days later. Maybe you’re right and that it was the accumulation of things.

      Welcome to the forum, @SamClaire! I am reasonably sure that after 9 days any danger of a single gluten exposure reaction would have been long gone. If in fact the reaction you are speaking of is due to gluten, it is more likely a cumulative effect of small amounts of gluten having crept into your diet over time. Perhaps some food product you have been using that was once gluten free is no more. Companies can and do change their formulations over time so it may be wise to take inventory of what is in your cupboard and what your are purchasing and check closely the ingredient labels and the allergen statements. It is also possible that the reaction you mention is caused by something else that resembles a gluten reaction. Are you still consuming oats and dairy?

      Hi, I’m brand new to this website but I was diagnosed 14 years ago. I am just now getting over a particularly bad flare up that lasted a full 7 days. I’ve been trying to figure out what caused it and all I can think of is I know I accidentally ate gluten (specifically wheat flour) 9 days before my symptoms started. Could it have taken 9 days for my symptoms to start? I can’t think of any other culprit it could’ve been. Thank you!
