Accepted Answer

If diagnosed with celiac diease, please read labels carefully and avoid all foods with wheat, barley, rye (includes breads). Explore the gluten-free aisles of your supermarket.

Consider blood testing for tissue transglutaminase antibody to assess whether your diet is truly free of gluten.

Question 3

Does nutritional yeast make you bloated?

Accepted Answer

It certainly can. Consider that yeast is used to make bread (which rises up from the gas bubbles produced)... and of course beer which has all those bubbles!

Accepted Answer

Everything in moderation, is one of life's rules. Nobody really knows what's in a bottle labeled "nutritional yeast". It could be yeast, but may have a variety of other stuff in it. Who knows?

This must be quite upsetting to you.  It may be a simple yeast infection by the symptoms that you describe.  It is reasonable to try an over the counter vaginal anti-yeast product, but also get an exam with your physician quickly, for a look and cultures to be safe.  There are patients with recto-vaginal connections, and they do get different kinds of infections due to stool leaking to the vagina.
