Guest guest Posted April 27, 2001 Report Share Posted April 27, 2001 Can someone tell me why Laura doesn't eat yeast? Dead yeast? Live yeast? Inactive yeast (as in nutritional yeast). Also, why is nutritional yeast addictive? I could eat a whole can, but didn't partially like it when I first tried it. Also the same goes for Tempeh, is this considered a yeast? I didn't like that to start with but now, yum. As tempeh is " grown " from raw soybeans, is it being " cooked " enough. Or does the bacteria break down the enzymes that make in indigestible Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's interesting, I find yeast-based pate (like Grano-Vita) very moorish, I can't stop myself. Same thing I wonder? Matt Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted April 28, 2001 Report Share Posted April 28, 2001 hello Rowan a non yeast diet is called an anti-candida diet cos that is what the yeast in your gut is called. it is more common a diet than you would think. this yeast is present in everyones gut but in some people the yeast starts to grow too much and set off an auto immune reaction. this causes many illnesses, minor to major. i thought i had thrush (too much info for the men, sorry) for a year which cleared up on the diet. it can be responsible for pmt fatigue insomnia mood swings, the list is realy long. in the book i have which explains it all there is a test to see if you have a problem with it, there is a questionnair with a point system (points for problems). it said yeast connected health problems are almost certainly present in women with scores over 180 and i got 210. i had a lot of small irritating problems like abdominal pain ect. that have now sorted themselves out. i cant eat normal bread, mushrooms, vegi gravey, some of the sos mix stuff, the nice vegan cheese or too much sugar or alcohol. no fermented stuff. i havnt been doing to well lately cos i visited my boyfriend whos vegan so i had to eat what he was eating. anti biotics are bad for it cos they distroy beneficial organisms in the body that keep the yeast in check and the pill is bad too cos it acts as an immuno surpressant. the book talks about how novelty refined foods and a modern bad diet can cause schizophrenia which i have never heard of before! also, i dont eat unions cos they give me the worst body odor. very pleasant! sorry for being a bit blunt, i know many of you will not want to hear about my ilnesses. anybody else on restricted diets? laura vegan-network, " Mccartney, Rowan (R.N.)

Guest guest Posted April 28, 2001 Report Share Posted April 28, 2001 Laura ,I think its very important that we do talk about health issues I learned a lot from what you sain I've never had mood swings but I've been Vegan since I was 18. I had thrush recently from having anti biotics --not nice --If I'd known alternative " cures I' wouldn't have used antibiotics .- " Laura " <laurahesse <vegan-network > Saturday, April 28, 2001 12:56 AM Re: Yeast and tempeh > hello Rowan > > a non yeast diet is called an anti-candida diet cos that is what the yeast > in your gut is called. it is more common a diet than you would think. > this yeast is present in everyones gut but in some people the yeast > starts to grow too much and set off an auto immune reaction. > this causes many illnesses, minor to major. > > i thought i had thrush (too much info for the men, sorry) for a year which > cleared up on the diet. it can be responsible for pmt fatigue insomnia > mood swings, the list is realy long. in the book i have which explains it > all there is a test to see if you have a problem with it, there is a > questionnair with a point system (points for problems). it said yeast > connected health problems are almost certainly present in women with > scores over 180 and i got 210. i had a lot of small irritating problems > like abdominal pain ect. that have now sorted themselves out. > > i cant eat normal bread, mushrooms, vegi gravey, some of the sos mix > stuff, the nice vegan cheese or too much sugar or alcohol. no > fermented stuff. i havnt been doing to well lately cos i visited my > boyfriend whos vegan so i had to eat what he was eating. anti biotics > are bad for it cos they distroy beneficial organisms in the body that > keep the yeast in check and the pill is bad too cos it acts as an > immuno surpressant. > > the book talks about how novelty refined foods and a modern bad diet > can cause schizophrenia which i have never heard of before! > > also, i dont eat unions cos they give me the worst body odor. > > very pleasant! sorry for being a bit blunt, i know many of you will not > want to hear about my ilnesses. > > anybody else on restricted diets? > > laura > > vegan-network, " Mccartney, Rowan (R.N.)
