my son was doing fantastically on his gluten-free diet until I started making his bread using a recipe that contained instant yeast. as soon as I stopped the yeast, all was fine again. has anyone else experienced this? Does instant yeast also contain gluten? Or maybe it's a seperate issue all together??

Some people have issues with yeast so maybe he's just sensitive to the yeast. Does this happen when you use other types of yeast?

Red Star and Fleischmann's are gluten-free.

My son seems to have reacted to the gluten-free bread I made for him which contained instant yeast. There was nothing else new in his diet and when I stopped the bread, his tummy cleared. Has anyone heard of this before? Does yeast contain gluten?? Or maybe there is a seperate yeast issue going on. Advice please!!

When I used to make bread, I did find instant yeast that stated gluten free on it. Some of us do react to yeast. I found gluten free bread to be too heavy, and generally did not feel well after eating it. It may have been because of the grain for me, I can no longer eat grains.

I think you can make some breads without yeast, try that, or, look for gluten free yeast.

Thanks, this is helpful. I have never really paid attention to the type of yeast as I never considered it would have gluten in it or cause an issue by itself. Toast is my fall-back when he refuses his food - he loves toast - so I need to find a recipe that is gluten, dairy, soy and yeast free - know of any?

I am a big fan of Open Original Shared Link dry mixes. Open Original Shared Link has quite a few yeast-free recipes that are also dairy and soy free. I use water in place of milk in bread recipes. For butter, I use olive oil. You could also use coconut oil, dfsf margarine, or Spectrum Palm Oil Shortening.

Here is an interesting tidbit to read:

Open Original Shared Link

Switch to "active dry" and see if he reacts to it.

I just posted this in another section. Could there be a reaction to MSG? Check out the list I found.

      Products that help to break down potential accidental gluten exposure

      By trents · Posted

      GliadinX is such a product and many/some report it really helps. In the interest of disclosure, the company that produces it is one of our sponsors.

      Occasionally eating out in restaurants means that there is potential cross contamination in spite of ordering a gluten free dish. What enzyme supplements can the forum recommend that would help with potential cross contamination? Something I could take before I start eating. I used to order Wheat Rescue from Microbiome lab, but it is not available anymore.

      Hi  - Anyone have any experience with these? I bought them at Costco thinking they must be gluten-free, but now I see Natural Flavors and Spice in the ingredients. There's no Gluten Free labeling. However the Costco site and two other sites say it's gluten free. Anyone know?

      Restaurants that offer gluten free no cross contamination

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      Yes, I doubt you can find a perfectly safe restaurant--perhaps a dedicated gluten-free restaurant, but in general, very few of them exist, and they tend to be in larger cities. Super sensitive celiacs should probably just avoid eating out.

      Newly diagnosed and maybe some type of protein intolerance.

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      Many people with celiac disease, especially those who are in the 0-2 year range of their recovery, have additional food intolerance issues which could be temporary. To figure this out you may need to keep a food diary and do an elimination diet over a few months. Some common food intolerance issues are dairy/casein, eggs, corn, oats, and soy. The good news is that after your gut heals (for most people who are 100% gluten-free this will take several months to two years) you may be able to slowly add some these items back into your diet after the damaged villi heal.
