This dietary yeast is used in food processing. It is known as Saccharomyces cerevisiae and antibodies to this yeast are known as ASCA. ASCA positivity is common in Crohn's disease but is seen in any condition that causes a leaky gut including mastocytic enterocolitis. This yeast should not be confused with Candida albicans, a soil yeast also present in our digestive tract but not added to food. Excessive sugar ingestion has been blamed by some as a cause of too much Candida growth in the digestive tract. Antibiotics, which kill bacteria but not yeast, can result in Candida yeast overgrowth, as can immune suppression, diabetes or aging.<BR/><BR/>Presuming you are referring to dietary yeast, then you probably should avoid any foods containing yeast or yeast extract if you know you react. Processed foods containing yeast may be particularly problematic given the complex interactions of multiple food proteins, preservatives, and other additives.<BR/><BR/>Thanks for your comment and question.

Thanks for the review. <BR/><BR/>I react to yeast. Does that mean I should stay away from yeast extract? Currently I avoid anything that says "yeast". It was an ingredient in the chicken strips.Annehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16655747133135789559noreply@blogger.com
