Reads like you are a candidate for *raw* zero carb.
My evidence of yeast (coated tongue) disappeared a few weeks after 
starting a strict pemmican diet, but I felt bloated and unwell when I 
ate anything cooked (tried bone broth).
I think that yeast is stubborn, and may very well hide in the cells, but 
they can't hold out forever and the almighty immune system will get them 
eventually.
Meanwhile there are all the benefits of a raw zero carb diet, as listed 
  on  http://zerocarbforlife.com/ http://forum.lowcarber.org/

Pemmican is starting to taste good to me! This after only 9 months of 
eating it.
