Does the yeast in Red Yeast Rice have the same negative properties as the yeast in wheat??


 I want to take the R.Y.R.E. but want to know if it will bother me like when I eat wheat products. Dont want to start the extract if I can expect to get Candidia. Thank you for your time in answering.


 

Although the name implies that it is yeast, the extracts used in Red Yeast Rice products do not affect Candida issues.
