You will probably be laughing at this moment. I am looking to make bread (i love bread) but the silly question is does it have to have yeast in it. I want to cut out yeast for candida sake and see if it helps.

Any thoughts?

I must admit all the the bread I've ever made has has yeast in it.

I'm not sure how your average gluten-free bread mix would fair minus the yeast ingredient :unsure: ...but there are some specifically yeast free ones out there (I've never seen these makes in any shops though - only online) Open Original Shared Link and Open Original Shared Link.

Happy baking :)

EDIT: Also found these recipes for Open Original Shared Linkwhich seem to be yeast free.

Breads by Anna has a yeast-free (and most other things-free) bread mix that's really good. You can order it at Open Original Shared Link.

Soda bread sounds like a good suggestion - baking soda and an acid like buttermilk will be good to give it lightness. Try using flours like Teff, millet, or buckwheat. They aren't as grainy as rice and aren't as dense which is the way gluten-free bread tends to be without yeast.

For bread other than sandwich/toast bread you can try a carrot cake recipe using millet flour and a bit of teff. Or zucchini bread recipe. Those are basically sweet breads that you are going to use baking powder to help it rise. If you beat the egg whites a bit it will help as well.

Good luck - it takes a lot of experimenting, but making your own bread will taste a whole lot better than what you buy from somewhere else.

Chebe bread is yeast free (www.chebe.com) and quite tasty. Search this website for recent discussions and recipe variations for chebe. You can obtain a variety of results by changing the type of cheese you use -- parmesan makes a good deli cheese roll, cream cheese makes a mild flavor roll somewhat like white bread.

One note -- Chebe is tapioca flour based and unlike rice flour, it can go gummy if you don't let it breathe after baking. I wrap mine in a tea towel or flour sack towel and let it sit for at least 12 hours before putting it in a ziploc.

      Draft gluten-free ciders… can they be trusted ?

      I'd go with a vodka tonic, but that's just me😉

      That and my nutritionist also said that drinking cider is one of the worst drink choices for me, given that I have candida overgrowth.  She said the combination of the alcohol and sugar would be very likely to worsen my candida problem.  She suggested that if I drink, I go for clear vodka, either neat or with a splash of cranberry.   So in summary, I am giving ciders a rest.  Whether it's a gluten risk or sugars and yeast overgrowth, its just not worth it.

      Tea Bags and Gluten

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      While plain, pure tea leaves (black, green, or white) are naturally gluten-free, the issue often lies not with the tea itself but with other ingredients or processing. Many flavored teas use barley malt or other gluten-containing grains as a flavoring agent, which would be clearly listed on the ingredient label. Cross-contamination is another possibility, either in the facility where the tea is processed or, surprisingly, from the tea bag material itself—some tea bags are sealed with a wheat-based glue. Furthermore, it's important to consider that your reaction could be to other substances in tea, such as high levels of tannins, which can be hard on the stomach, or to natural histamines or other compounds that can cause a non-celiac immune response. The best way to investigate is to carefully read labels for hidden ingredients, try switching to a certified gluten-free tea brand that uses whole leaf or pyramid-style bags, and see if the reaction persists.

      Inconclusive results

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      This is a challenging and confusing situation. The combination of a positive EMA—which is a highly specific marker rarely yielding false positives—alongside strongly elevated TTG on two separate occasions, years apart, is profoundly suggestive of celiac disease, even in the absence of biopsy damage. This pattern strongly aligns with what is known as "potential celiac disease," where the immune system is clearly activated, but intestinal damage has not yet become visible under the microscope. Your concern about the long-term risk of continued gluten consumption is valid, especially given your family's experience with the consequences of delayed diagnosis. Since your daughter is now at an age where her buy-in is essential for a gluten-free lifestyle, obtaining a definitive answer is crucial for her long-term adherence and health. Given that she is asymptomatic yet serologically positive, a third biopsy now, after a proper 12-week challenge, offers the best chance to capture any microscopic damage that may have developed, providing the concrete evidence needed to justify the dietary change. This isn't about wanting her to have celiac; it's about wanting to prevent the insidious damage that can occur while waiting for symptoms to appear, and ultimately giving her the unambiguous "why" she needs to accept and commit to the necessary treatment. This article might be helpful. It breaks down each type of test, and what a positive results means in terms of the probability that you might have celiac disease. One test that always needs to be done is the IgA Levels/Deficiency Test (often called "Total IGA") because some people are naturally IGA deficient, and if this is the case, then certain blood tests for celiac disease might be false-negative, and other types of tests need to be done to make an accurate diagnosis. The article includes the "Mayo Clinic Protocol," which is the best overall protocol for results to be ~98% accurate.
