That's a good question Mr. Moore. I am avoiding yeast myself, but I don't know how many people are. There have been studies linking baker's yeast antibodies to Crohn's Disease. In fact, one doctor has a patent on testing for baker's yeast antibodies as a method to detect Crohn's. Anyhow, my younger brother had Crohn's and I have celiac. So I tend to think the genetics are somehow related between those diseases.

You can check with Campbell's on their soup to see if it contains gluten. They will probably answer or have something on their web site about it. I wouldn't eat it because of the yeast, even if they say it is gluten free. But others may not have a problem with that.

Some kinds do and some don't. You have to check each brand and flavor to find out for sure. I don't eat yogurt myself, so I don't know if there are any safe brands where all flavors are ok. I think the best bet is the plain yogurts with no flavorings added. But you would still need to check and verify it yourself.

Yeast in soups and other things which don't have to rise is almost always put there as a way of adding MSG without having to say it on the label. They know people won't want to buy it otherwise.

As for yogurt, here's a non-dairy yogurt, made with coconut milk. They also make ice cream.

If you are hooked on flavored yogurt Mr.Moore, maybe the thing is to make your own flavors. You can probably get some fruit preserves and add them to the plain yogurt fairly easy. There are people on the board who eat yogurt. Perhaps if you do a search on yogurt you'll find some threads on safe brands here. There is usually a way around these things. Add some nuts or whatnot and make your own flavors eh?

UGHHHH!!! This topic makes me so mad. :angry:

I am anti-candida as well as gluten-free.

Okay, here's the thing: THERE IS AUTOLYZED YEAST EXTRACT IN NEARLY EVERY PROCESSED FOOD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :angry:

It makes me so mad. Why are companies allowing people to unknowingly consume this uncessary flavoring agent which leads to bacterial overgrowth? It's the same things as MSG, only companies are allowed to call it "natural" when they use Autolyzed Yeast Extract vs. MSG. How exactly is that natural? The autolyzed part -- that's natural????

Pretty much you can't eat anything processed on the anti-candida diet because for one reason, chances are, no matter what, you'd be ingesting Autolyzed Yeast Extract, which WILL cause the candida to multiply because it is fermented and candida feeds on fermented things.

As I understand it, they are allowed to get away with it because they didn't add the MSG to the yeast. It's like when a company adds beef, they don't have to declare the antibiotics or hormones that the cows were given. I read some of the FDA rules, and it basically reads like an intensional loophole.

However, an additional problem is that the yeast are actually fed MSG, to make them grow faster. I think I still have the links, if anyone's interested.

      Being a burden to family/friends

      By cristiana · Posted

      I must admit I've been on both sides.  Before my diagnosis, and in my ignorance, I thought all the special diets we see around us today were unnecessary and people were making a big fuss over nothing.  There is a shop in the small town where I live that sells organic and gluten free food and I used to people walking in and buying things and thought they were being a bit ridiculous spending extra money on what I thought was a fad.  Yet since my diagnosis that shop has been a real lifesaver.  I guess It is hard for people to see the necessity of all this extra effort if they haven't experienced celiac disease either themselves, or in someone they love.  That said, honestly, I have wondered at times if I would have been as understanding had my husband been diagnosed with coeliac disease instead of me. He has been great.  It must be incredibly difficult if your close friends and family aren't supporting you in this way. Following a gluten-free diet can involve a lot of extra hassle and can be expensive, but I do find that the world is so full of people struggling with autoimmune illnesses now, allergies and intolerances, that people are definitely becoming more attuned to things.   Word is getting out there. In 2022 a long-running popular TV series in the UK, Doc Martin, ended with a final case: a patient being diagnosed with coeliac disease.  I don't know if anyone saw it but I was so heartened by that episode, that celiac disease was given centre stage for the last ever programme. The patient in question had been suffering from a horrible rash which turned out to be dermatitis herpetiformis. He also had anemia, felt faint and was plain exhausted.  It would have been good education to anyone watching who didn't know about the disease and they would have been left in no doubt about its seriousness and the need to follow a strict gluten-free diet.  I thought to myself as it ended, well, now, that's another piece in our campaign to make coeliac disease better understood!

      I understand your frustration about socializing while having celiac disease. I also have allergies to nuts, dairy, all forms of gluten including oats, strawberries and MSG. I get anxiety while grocery shopping and really take my time to read all labels. I always carry a magnifying glass with me wherever I go to read labels. Many products are labelled Gluten Free but contain Oats, and apparently this is becoming more common. I almost bought some gluten free flour but read that it contained oats. A certain percentage of Celiacs have this complication. I can’t help feeling offended and excluded when others act like I am being “high maintenance”. I am becoming better at being an advocate for myself.  I have had diverticulitis 3 times and each time hospitalized-once, the attending nurse didn’t know what celiac means-she had to research...  If others around me make comments I try to enlighten them, those who don’t get it are not my friends anymore. Be very careful about cross-contamination. I was sick recently for 10 days after a meal was contaminated while I was on holiday. If servers say they have gluten free buns or bread, ask if they use a toaster specifically reserved for gluten-free, or don’t chance it. On a positive note, I didn’t find out I had Celiac Disease until I was 60. Eating a gluten free diet means no more terrible headaches, hives, rashes, intestinal bloating and irregularity, Gastro Intestinal Reflux….when I follow a strict diet and mostly always eat at home, I feel great! I also weeded out “friends” who weren’t worth being around.
