The statement is interesting but it is highly questionable. For example, in order for yeast from bread to live in the GI tract the yeast cells would have to be alive to grow. Yeast cells die when bread is baked so there isn't any live yeast that can grow in the GI tract.

It is important to know that are more than 1500 know yeast species. It is estimated that this is less than 1% of all yeasts. Yeasts are found everywhere even in the air. In fact, airborne yeast were used to make bread until commerical yeast were produced. You inhale yeast cells with every breath you take. Only some yeast species are a health hazard.

Another thing to remember is most refined sugars are digested in the stomach and carried into the bloood stream so there would be very little sugar that gets to the colon to feed the yeast.
