Yeast
Yeast intolerance is a condition where individuals experience difficulty digesting yeast, leading to gastrointestinal discomfort. This differs from a yeast allergy, which involves an immune system response and can cause more severe reactions. People with yeast intolerance typically experience digestive symptoms after consuming yeast or yeast-containing products....
Description
Yeast intolerance involves the digestive system’s inability to properly process yeast, resulting in discomfort and various symptoms. This is a non-immune response, unlike a yeast allergy, which is an immune reaction to proteins in yeast, potentially causing severe symptoms like hives, swelling, or anaphylaxis. Yeast intolerance generally leads to milder, primarily digestive-focused symptoms and does not involve the immune system.
- Bloating and gas
- Abdominal pain
- Diarrhea
- Nausea
- Indigestion
- Headaches
If you consistently experience digestive discomfort such as bloating, abdominal pain, or diarrhea after consuming yeast or yeast-containing products, it may be wise to consider a test for yeast intolerance. This is particularly important if these symptoms disrupt your daily activities or if the specific cause of your discomfort is unclear, as it could be indicative of other dietary sensitivities or health issues.
