Going Yeast And Gluten Free?

Hi, my name is Gabi...I do not believe that I have Celiac disease...I believe that I have a Candida overgrowth and I am looking to rectify that problem. The biggest obstacle so far: Finding out what foods I can and cannot eat!

I have researched to my death and I keep coming up with the same information: "If you go yeast free, go gluten free at the same time"...BUUT, I cannot find any information on foods that are safe and foods that I should avoid while doing both at the same time...I keep finding one or the other...and there is so much conflicting information!

I had wanted to print out the lists from this website by copy/pasting the list into a word document, but it creates an 11 page list that leaves half of the paper unused and, being an earth lover, I cannot justify wasting the paper!

Help!! Does anyone here have experience with eliminating yeast/gluten/sugar/dairy from their diets? I really need some pointers!

I cannot be the only person in this world trying to do this diet...can I??

Thanks so much, any information would be appreciated! :)

I have had very bad acid reflux for the past 2 years. My brother, a D.O. in Maine, gave me an organic yeast test. It came back with very high levels of yeast. He put me on a gluten, sugar, and dairy, yeast elimination diet for 6 months. It was basically a vegetable (except mushrooms-due to the fungus), meat, and rice diet. It was hard to begin with but, I eventually got used to it. I am now off the diet and I slowly reintroduced those things I couldn't eat while on the diet. I still have problems with gluten.

I am in the process of doing the gluten challenge so I can be tested. I did really well when I was gluten-well. I have several rashes that look like DH which have been there for about 8 months or so. I don't know for sure yet since I have not been tested. I hope this helps!

That does help, thank you so much!! I had started to get really confused about rice lol... some lists said to avoid it, others said limit it, and still others said have at it!

Now, do you know about corn products...like grits and cornmeal? I've read to avoid corn in it's vegetable form, but again, conflicting information on corn as a cereal/flour.

I continued eating corn products, such as grits. In either form I ate corn. So, I think it is fine.

      Nicotine Gum For Gluten Symptoms.. Am I Crazy?

      By sleuth · Posted

      @fatjacksonthecat I have been doing some digging about the topic of nicotine and celiac.  I came across many studies that showed that the nicotine patch helped many with long covid and chronic fatigue syndrome.  I have a son who was diagnosed with celiac and his symptoms are severe when he is glutened.  He shows a lot of neurological inflammation and suffered with fatigue, brain fog, depression, anxiety and insomnia. There have been studies revealing that nicotine smoke actually masking celiac symptoms.  I also read that microdosing with a nictoine patch prevents one from addiction.  We are currently trying this out and so far it has lifted the brain fog and helped with anxiety and mood.  One of the studies I have read showed that it's not so much the dose, but the length of time a person is on the patch that showed improvements.  Many showed significant improvement as early as week 3 and continued through week 12.  We are taking 3 day breaks in between to make sure we don't down regulate the nicotine receptors.   How have things been for you?  Are you still chewing nicotine gum?  Perhaps, try the patch?  And how long did it take to ease up on your symptoms when glutened?

      Hi @KathyR37 and a very warm welcome here.  I am so very sorry that you are going through all of this. I just wanted to check, have you ever been tested for any other gastrointestinal conditions? Cristiana

      @KathyR37, I would suspect that in addition to gluten intolerance, you have other food intolerances/sensitivities. This is very common in the celiac community. The most common offenders are oats, dairy, soy, corn and eggs with dairy and oats being the big two. Have you considered this? Have you tried keeping a food diary to detect patterns?

      thank you for your advice.   I have always taken them and I use Stonehedge because they are in a glass bottle, but don't have to be refrigerated.  I also like they are 3rd party tested and state gluten free. But you never know if something better has come alone over the years.

      Thank you for your response. I have already learned about the info you sent but i appreciate your effort. I am the only one in my family cursed by this disease. I have to cook for them too. I make sure that my utensils are free of gluten and clean after using them for other food. I use non-porous pots and pans and  gloves when cooking for them. One huge problem I have is a gag reflex out of this world and if something doesn't taste good it is not going down. Most commercially made breads and such taste like old cardboard.Pastas are about the same. I did find one flour that I like and use it regularly, but it is so expensive! All gluten free food is way more expensive. I only eat twice a day because I cannot afford to buy all that. We live on a very low income so my food purchases are quite limited.
