Guest guest Posted March 21, 2011 Report Share Posted March 21, 2011 Hi all! I have read over the years the possible pro's & con's of someone with systemic candida eating nutritional yeast. I stayed away from it for years just to be on the safe side. But then after 2 major abdominal surgeries in 6 months and tons of anesthesia, my hair took a hit and was not looking healthy, so I began to add yeast flakes and Twinlabs Nutritional Yeast powder into my diet -- in the past year I have gone bonkers with them both, as I love the taste. I add them to salads, rice cakes, eggs, protein powder, you-name-it. My diet has been sugar free for close to 25 years, and low card for at least 15. I also rotate SF722 & Mycopryl weekly. Now this is going to sound like a VERY lame-brained, no-brainer question, but in the past 3-4 months I notice a very yeasty smell often in my urine, and last month I am CERTAIN I had a sore throat & congestion for 2 weeks due to candida overload. Previous to using the nutritional yeast it seemed that the SF722/Myco rotation was keeping the candida at bay (not completely, but keeping it at a barely noticeable level), and with a diet of protein, lots of good fat (coconut oil, almond butter & olive oil all on a daily basis that could practically feed Ethiopia) I cannot imagine what else but the yeast could be feeding the candida. What is the general consensus by most of you on eating nutritional yeast? The online articles are helpful to a degree, but I want to know from the source, you all, how it has effected (or not) your recovery.
