A member asked:
If one is prone to yeast infections, should stay away from yeast extract spread?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No: One has no relation to the other. There are thousands of different yeasts. A yeast infection is actually an overgrowth of yeast already present, usually related to use of antibiotic or presence of diabetes.
