Active Dry Yeast.

I do not eat active dry yeast often....acutally only a few times a year. I have noticed that every time I eat it I get a yeast infection on my face and I get crazy....

Girls you might get this...you know the WORST PMS days where you are bloated and b%$@#y...like every thing is an issue and a HUGE annoyance and you just see a black line around every thing and you are just so crabby that you are even sick of yourself?!

That's how I feel when I eat yeast....and my face breaks out.....

and i KNOW it's not my period!

I have been playing around the past few weeks of eating yeast and not eating yeast and it's totally the yeast! I'm very consistant about my diet....

Does anyone else get this? Or have any advise?

Yeast and all types of mold affect my neurological system and make me angry and mean. In a big enough dose, it makes me crazy (otherwise, I am a stable person...really!). When I start to get this way, my husband and teenage sons are like, "what did you eat! - what did you get into!"

You may well have certain bacteria in your body that can set up a very rapid reaction to certain things like yeast - it could be Candida, it could be something else, but whatever it is, it's chucking out loads of toxins into your body that are causing the reaction and coming out through your skin.

When I first went gluten-free, in amongst my first shop was a pack of gluten-free rolls. I had one that evening with some home-made soup (I had had some the day before and was fine so I know it wasn't that) and actually had an allergic histamine reaction. When I checked it out I nearly fell over at the number of ingredients in the things and the rest went straight in the bin. I have never had anything containing yeast since. I am pretty sure the reaction was to yeast, but there were so many ingredients I suppose it could have been anything. The only thing they didn't contain was gluten!!! Yuk. (They were disgusting anyway!)

That made me realise that I had to keep as far away from anything processed as possible and when I twigged that my problems were with other carbs as well as gluten based ones I researched and found the Specific Carb Diet and, as they say, never looked back. Give me an SCD 'legal' muffin anyday!

It is all down to gut dysbiosis and rogue bacteria one way or another and the more research I do on the subject the more convinced I am that the little beggars are behind so much of our Western illness and disease.

Some of us on the SCD thread are looking into trying Neem, which is used extensively in Asia as a body purifier as it is an excellent completely natural anti-bacterial and anti-fungal. I want to get hold of some pure Neem leaves to make tea so that I can get it into my digestive tract from the top down and finally get a handle on the little beasties that are making such a mess of my body.

      Maybe celiac but maybe NCGS that was misdiagnosed as IBS morphing gradually into celiac. Is NCGS a new category to you? It shares many of the same GI symptoms with celiac disease but does not damage the small bowel lining like celiac.

      Thiamine has antifungal properties.  The body uses thiamine to keep bacteria and yeasts from overgrowth in the digestive system.   Fluconazole use can cause thiamine deficiency.   Supplementing with thiamine in the form Benfotiamine would be beneficial as Benfotiamine promotes intestinal healing.   Thiamine and the other B vitamins tend to be low in Celiac due to malabsorption.  Talk to your doctor about supplementing vitamins and minerals.

      Welcome @Natalia Revelo, your experience is profoundly difficult and, sadly, not entirely unique within the celiac community. It's the frustrating reality of "silent" or ongoing damage that isn't captured by the MARSH score alone, which only measures active villous atrophy. Your normal biopsy suggests your diet is preventing the classic autoimmune attack, but it doesn't mean your gut has fully healed or that other issues aren't at play. The inflammation from your newly discovered milk and egg allergies is a huge clue; this constant allergic response can create a low-grade inflammatory environment that severely hampers nutrient absorption, effectively creating a "leaky gut" scenario independent of celiac damage. This is likely why your iron stores deplete so rapidly—your body is both unable to absorb it efficiently and may be losing it through inflammation. While the functional medicine path is expensive, it's clearly providing answers and relief that traditional gastroenterology, focused solely on the gluten-free diet and biopsy results, is missing. To move forward, continue the gut-healing protocols your functional doctor recommends (perhaps exploring alternative options to glutamine that won't irritate your cystitis), maintain your strict avoidance of all allergens and irritants, and know that true healing is a multi-faceted process. You might seek a second opinion from a different gastroenterologist who is more knowledgeable about non-responsive celiac disease and the complex interplay of food allergies and micronutrient absorption, but your current path, while costly, seems to be leading you toward the steady health you need.

      Have you had a DNA test to look for Celiac disease genes?  If she doesn't have any celiac specific genes, look for another explanation.  If she does have Celiac genes, assume they are turned on and active Celiac disease is progressing.  All first degree relatives (mother, father, siblings, children) should be genetically tested as well.   Sometimes blood tests are ambiguous or false negatives if one has anemia, diabetes or thiamine deficiency.  Certain medications like antihistamines and steroids can suppress the immune system and result in false negatives or ambiguous results on antibody tests.

      That was just the visual report, so need to wait for confirmation or otherwise from the results. They did take a biopsy from the upper end of the duodenum(D1). D2 looked unremarkable on the camera. Just wish we didn’t have to wait so long for the results as she’s naturally a very anxious person. But thanks so much for taking the time to answer me
