Yeasts do bother me too. I'm not sure it it's because of MSG or candida, but either way it doesn't matter in terms of diet.

The yeast being called "nutritional" is not the same as bread yeast. I avoid that too. IMO, "nutritional yeast" is nothing more than a way for manufacturers to add Free Glutamic Acid (MSG) to a product without the legal requirement of declaring it on the label. Check www.truthinlabeling.org for more about MSG and what symptoms you might expect.

I have an intense reaction to yeast. When I had the health crisis that lead me to a naturopathic doctor to have my candida-leaky gut-intolerances diagnosed it was actually caused because I'd added a ton of yogurt to my daily diet. The naturopath explained that since I'd had a systemic candida infection for so long my immune system had learned to react to all yeast and that I probably wouldn't be able to eat them ever again. I got some by accident a while ago (my husband forgot to read a label and I forgot to double check it) and my reaction was even more extreme than my gluten reaction. Its hard because alot of the gluten free products like breads and pizzas have yeast in them. You can always buy the mixes and leave out the yeast package when you mix it all up. I use baking soda instead and have had good results with pizza crust.

Yes I can't have any yeast or alcohol etc. etc. either. Same thing happens to me. Too much candida for too long. Recently I have been using barberry as well as pao de arco and garlic and of course probiotics to help counteract it. Seems to be helping a lot. That plus eating a more paleolithic diet. The ground up grains --especially the ones that have been bleached etc.--turn to sugar qucikly and thus feed the yeast. Can't each much fruit either in one day.

The yeast allergy however makes it so I have to not take regular b vitamins. And yet I need them to help deal with the yeast and other issues like eating carbohydrates and proteins etc. etc.! And they have to be the really absorbable kind --not the usual ones derived from coal tar. So I finally found the co-enzyme B's and they are a godsend...

I'm also yeast-free because of candida.

Hi,

Would you please let me know what co-enzyme B's you are talking about. What brand? Is this well tolerated for most of us?

Thanks,

Susie

      Hernia symptoms after gluten exposure

      By trents · Posted

      Okay, but the biopsy needs to be done during an active outbreak of dermatitis herpetiformis. So, if you can accomplish that without long term gluten exposure, that should work. How close together does do the dermatitis herpetiformis outbreaks occur in relation to the gluten exposure? It would be helpful to time that out in relation to your dermatology appointment for the biopsy. But one caution I would have about a dermatitis herpetiformis biopsy is that not every dermatologist knows how to do it correctly. The sample needs to be taken from tissue next to the bumps, not from the bumps themselves. But Wheatwacked is correct. A dermatitis herpetiformis diagnosis is definitive proof of celiac disease. However, only about 15% of celiacs develop dermatitis herpetiformis.

      That should answer your question about gluten.  Plus a dermatitis herpetiformis diagnosis is definative of celiac disease by itself.  Now you need to decide if you need to to pursue a diagnosis.  For your baby's health, I would assune both you and the baby have Celiac Disease. Eat gluten free and account for the fact that gluten free foods are not fortified.  Make sure to get lots of folate and Choline to prevent neurotube defects.   My son was diagnosed when he was weaned by biopsy in 1976.  Everyone called it just colicky, but his giant abdomen and green and yellow poop said otherwise.  Oh, and dispite general belief, they do not outgrow it.  If you are gluten free then your newborn will be gluten free and testing will not be positive for celiac disease, until the baby starts eating gluten and gets sick.  Why put him through that?  Gluten free household will give him the best health. Just before I started gluten free and one of the reasons I did was that I was lying in bed watching TV when I coughed.  My belly was bloated and I felt sick as a dog.  A bubble, looked like Bazooka bubble gum, popped out of my navel.  I am male, but apparently umbilical hernias are not uncommon in pregnancy.  Mine eventually resolved by itself. Low choline levels in pregnant women raise babies' risk for brain and spinal-cord defects, study shows  "From 180,000 pregnant women screened between 2003 and 2005, the researchers identified 80 whose pregnancies were affected by neural tube defects. Choline, an essential nutrient found in egg yolks, soy, wheat germ and meats, was the only nutrient measured whose blood levels were linked to risk of neural tube defects."

      Hernia symptoms after gluten exposure

      By trents · Posted

      Welcome to the community @MCAyr! One thing you need to know is that in order for celiac disease diagnostic testing to be valid, you must not have been on a gluten-free diet already. The first stage of celiac disease testing involves looking for the blood antibodies that are produced by the inflammation in the small bowel lining. Once you eliminate gluten, the antibodies begin to disappear and it takes weeks or months of being back on normal amounts of gluten for them to build up to detectable levels again.

      Hernia symptoms after gluten exposure

      By MCAyr · Posted

      Hi currently being investigated for celiac; suspected dermatitis herpetiformis, low calcium and vit D, stomach discomfort and 2 episodes of awful stomach pain (docs think maybe triggered by pregnancy)  Went gluten-free for 5 weeks was feeling great then last week accidentally had some in a sweet! Followed by 2 days of absolute hell and excruciating stomach pain and cramping below right of belly button. Since then the really bad pain has gone, but I've had sore to touch above my belly button and think I can feel a lump, was painful for a couple of days to point I couldn't sleep on sides. Docs palpated few days before I could feel lump, and felt nothing.  Anyone had a hernia they didn't know about until their gluten reaction inflamed it? Or is this just another lovely gluten sensitivity symptom?  Many thanks
