Does Anyone Else Have A Problem With Instant Yeast?

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??

I just have trouble with yeast. :blink:

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.

      Thank you so much for your response  Yes it seems as though things get very painful as time goes on.  I'm not eating gluten as far as I know.  However, I'm not sure of cross contamination.  My system seems to weaken to hidden spices and other possibilities. ???  if cross contamination is possible...I am in a super sensitive mode of celiac disease.. Neuropathy from head to toes

      We feel your pain. It took me 20+ years of regularly going to doctors desperate for answers only to be told there was nothing wrong with me … when I was 20 pounds underweight, suffering from severe nutritional deficiencies, and in a great deal of pain. I had to figure it out for myself. If you're in the U.S., not having an official diagnosis does mean you can't claim a tax deduction for the extra expense of gluten-free foods. But it can also be a good thing. Pre-existing conditions might be a reason why a health insurance company might reject your application or charge you more money. No official diagnosis means you don't have a pre-existing condition. I really hope you don't live in the U.S. and don't have these challenges. Do you need an official diagnosis for a specific reason? Else, I wouldn't worry about it. As long as you're diligent in remaining gluten free, your body should be healing as much as possible so there isn't much else you could do anyway. And there are plenty of us out here who never got that official diagnosis because we couldn't eat enough gluten to get tested. Now that the IL-2 test is available, I suppose I could take it, but I don't feel the need. Someone else not believing me really isn't my problem as long as I can stay in control of my own food.

      If you're just starting out in being gluten free, I would expect it to take months before you learned enough about hidden sources of gluten before you stopped making major mistakes. Ice cream? Not safe unless they say it is gluten free. Spaghetti sauce? Not safe unless is says gluten-free. Natural ingredients? Who knows what's in there. You pretty much need to cook with whole ingredients yourself to avoid it completely. Most gluten-free products should be safe, but while you're in the hypersensitive phase right after going gluten free, you may notice that when something like a microwave meal seems to not be gluten-free … then you find out that it is produced in a shared facility where it can become contaminated. My reactions were much-more severe after going gluten free. The analogy that I use is that you had a whole army of soldiers waiting for some gluten to attack, and now that you took away their target, when the stragglers from the gluten army accidentally wander onto the battlefield, you still have your entire army going out and attacking them. Expect it to take two years before all of the training facilities that were producing your soldiers have fallen into disrepair and are no longer producing soldiers. But that is two years after you stop accidentally glutening yourself. Every time you do eat gluten, another training facility can be built and more soldiers will be waiting to attack. Good luck figuring things out.

      This treatment looks promising. Its aim is to provoke immune tolerance of gluten, possibly curing the disease. It passed the phase 2 trial with flying colours, and I came across a post on Reddit by one of the study volunteers. Apparently, the results were good enough that the company is applying for fast track approval.  Anokion Announces Positive Symptom Data from its Phase 2 Trial Evaluating KAN-101 for the Treatment of Celiac Disease https://www.reddit.com/r/Celiac/comments/1krx2wh/kan_101_trial_put_on_hold/
