My wife has just gone onto a Yeast-Free diet and is struggling as she has a sweet tooth and is missing the suger and especially the chocolate. She has been suffering headaches, tiredness and mood swings.
Can anyone offer tips on what she can do to stay on track or even any foods she can eat a little to treat herself?
Recipes or ideas for snacks in particular – and also breakfasts, lunches and dinners – would be helpful. Anything you can offer would be appreciated.
I have some recipes on my website that might work for your wife’s diet. Here is the link to one for sesame crackers that does not have any yeast or leavening in it; high in protein, it is one of my favorites:
So my boyfriend just found out he is allergic to yeast. Does anyone know any yeast free breads and other products? Also, are they available in a normal grocery store? We live in a very small town with no health food stores around, only a Reid’s.
I’m allergic to wheat and yeast and it seems I have two choices A) eat very boring and repetitive food or B) stay in the kitchen all day
I don’t like either choice.
Does anyone have EASY wheat and yeast free recipes?
David: Cool ideas. Thanks.
I am a former chef and because of my diabetic condition stay away from alot of wheat based foods, I have used both corn and rice pastas both brown rice and the Asian one, and do not thicken my sauces with flour, I use tapioca starch, the same thing the Chinese restaurants use to make a clear finish.
I also eat a fair amount of both tofu, seiten and TVP the texture protein, I have found it is better for those who have wheat allegies and yeast is not hard either, alot of products like rye breads and there are even rice breads with no gluten and milk products available, the best thing is to find out what you like, and adapt those ideas to the products available, most supermarkets have rice noodles, but Asian store and most high end Health food and Natural food store carry these product, ask the staff there to help you, and mix in as may veggies as possible, I like hot foods so I make veggie chilis with soya product along with tofu and seiten, and currys with just veg or with the soya chunks, if your stilleating meat, stay with chicken, fish or turkey they are easier to digest.
I need a yeast free recipes for pizza dough. Seems like the one I usually use doesn’t work well at all and the pizza falls apart. If anyone could help me out with this, thanks!
I am fructose intolerant which is when you can’t absorb fructose a sugar found in fruit. I have yeast overgrowth in my intestines and just started the yeast free diet today. Do you think there is any hope that the yeast infection could be causing the fructose intolerance by messing with the intestines ability to properly make enzymes. I’m desperate to eat fructose again and am going out on a limb here. Do you think I have a prayer?
From the research I’ve done, fructose intolerance rings in at about 1% with yeast as the culprit. It is worth a shot to try, but this is a very strict diet. While it may not cure the fructose intolerance, it might help you in other aspects of your life, such as with mood swings, fatigue, etc.

I hope this helps and good luck to your wife. I felt great after I did this diet, it was more than worth it.
