Yeast makes me feel better

This is a fairly unique question and I presume may attract a great deal of incredulous response. I am a candida sufferer who has been treating the condition sometimes successfully and sometimes not so for a farily lengthy period of time now. My condition has been confirmed through case history (huge Antibiotic use and improvement when taking anti fungal meication or supplements and avoding sugar) and testing (Great Smokies Labs). However the quite unique thing that I find is that I feel better when cosuming large quantities of yeast, as opposed to avoiding it altogether as we are supposed to on the anti-candida diet. Does anybody else out there have this same experience, and if so, why is this so?
