Saw this as an ingredient & have no idea if it's deadly to us or not. If anyone out there knows, please post. Thanks!

I googled it and it would be okay. It's another strain of yeast different from the Brewer's yeast and others generally used for baking. Instead, it's from the candida strain and supposedly is higher in protein and other trace elements than common yeast.

Thanks! I have limited internet right now so I haven't had time to research it myself. I appreciate the input. Have a great week!

Living Strong says:

. . . Gluten is found in any foods or ingredients made with rye, wheat or barley. Torula yeast isn't made from these grains, so it is safe on this diet.

Just a note - these posts are all from 2005.  Any product info on them is almost 10 years old - so whoever is reading should probably re-check for current info.

 

edit:  Doesn't look like there is any mention of products but the OP hasn't been around for a couple of years

      dermatitis herpetiformis outbreaks while on strict gluten-free diet

      By BoiseNic · Posted

      I have the same problem. No matter what I eat, I seem to get a break out every 1 to 2 months. I do not do oats, citrus fruits, apples, onions and other foods also, as those cause reactions. The only time I have zero problems is when I fast. The only staple grain I have is quinoa, as that doesn't seem to cause me issues. I have linked mine to a microbiome imbalance. I am currently on month 3 of Skinesa. It's supposed to take 3 months before seeing results. I guess we'll see.

      Colonoscopy with large are of inflammation

      By growlinhard1 · Posted

      I'm having all the celiac sx ~ frequent gas and belching, major constipation which is new, feeling extremely full after eating a small amount and then feeling starving again in an hour or two, frequent urination, itchy skin, hair thinning, stomach bloating, unexplained weight loss of 15 pounds to date, major depressive episodes, irritability and feel weak and unwell all the time. I had a colonoscopy in January which showed a large fold with inflammation that was biopsies. The pathology came back as inflammation. At my gastroenterologist colonoscopy follow up visit, it was decided that I needed a egd with biopsy to see if I have ulcers or celiac. I should also say I have had psoriasis since I was 16 and I'm now 63. Since I have been scouring the internet looking for what may be happening, the doctor mentioning celiac and seeing how my symptoms match it so closely I decided to start cutting out gluten. My biopsy is in a month and if not eating gluten makes me start to feel better, why would I want to continue feeling soo terrible by eating it for a diagnosis? How would a diagnosis benefit me enough to prolong my absolute misery for another month? What does everyone think? Am I missing something?

      While not all Celiac react to Zein, the protein in corn, some Celiac do react to maize similarly as they react to gluten.  And I'm one of them.     Maize Prolamins Could Induce a Gluten-Like Cellular Immune Response in Some Celiac Disease Patients https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC3820067/

      Not sure if this is Celiac or just a gluten-free intolerance

      By trents · Posted

      @Brook G, would you explain what you mean when you say, "I'm assuming that I'm probably extremely gluten intolerant because QUINOA gives me a gluten reaction." Quinoa is naturally gluten free. However, it is possible to have been cross contaminated with gluten-containing grains and the seed coat lectins can make some people (like me) quite ill if it is unwashed quinoa.

      Not sure if this is Celiac or just a gluten-free intolerance

      By Brook G · Posted

      Years ago when I told my GI specialist that I'd like to be tested for Celiac he told me that being I had been gluten-free for over a year, I would test negative.  In order to get an accurate reading I would have to eat a full gluten diet for 5 weeks.  I agreed to do it and on the way home I stopped at the grocery store and stocked up on my favorite breads, deserts, and every other gluten product that I love and hadn't eaten for over a year. Five days later I was in agony!  I was bloated, I stopped going poo, I could barely move my joints and I felt like my hands had been crushed in a car door.  I was bent over and couldn't stand straight, and I moaned constantly.  I had a very difficult time sleeping because of the pain. I lost nearly 20lbs that I didn't need to loose, and I had to go on a liquid diet to reset my digestive track.  I was sick for weeks. Because of this experience, I can't recommend that anyone put themself through the change of eating a gluten free to eating a full gluten diet.  For me, it wasn't worth getting an official diagnoses.  I'm assuming that I'm probably extremely gluten intolerant because QUINOA gives me a gluten reaction. Most of us have similar symptoms, but they do vary.  I'm not qualified to diagnose your daughter, but some of her symptoms fit the diagnoses.  She may be getting gluten from somewhere and not realize it.  I do recommend a good GI specialist and testing other than the blood test which she would have to eat gluten for.
