Balancing your digestive tract will help to balance the overall ecology of the body. Chronic inflammation of the gut will have effects throughout the body in years to come if not corrected. Most likely, your problem started with antibiotic use in the past, setting up a state of chronic inflammation and immune system imbalance. Current food choices will reflect varying degrees of irritability and inflammation in the colon. Keeping the bowels moving will help to provide ongoing detoxification. Normal bowel movements are 3-4 times a day, when eating 3 meals a day. You may have to address para ...

Like all drugs, antidepressants will affect all the tissues of the body, and seeing how everything is connected, that’s to be expected. That’s also a good reason to avoid their use as much as possible and to seek alternative therapies and treatments. I’m not familiar with specific anti-depressive effects, but I know that anything that affects the nervous system affects the immune system. There’s science that establishes this link firmly. Sympathetic nervous system responses caan elicit Th2 immune responses. this can suppress th1 immune responses that are more effective at eliminating infec ...

Candida manipulates the body’s immune system into a predominatly Th2 response. I address those afterwards, as the McCombs Plan helps to improve the body’s ability to detoxify all substances. The only exception would be if someone had a serious blood-borne parasitic infection. I would address that for a couple of weeks first, do the McCombs Plan, then finish addressing the parasites afterwards. The goal is to create balance in the intestinal tract, not eliminate everything. [End]

That can be a part of your body working to eliminate the fungus. Some of female patients insert 2 acidophilus capsules twice a day into the vaginal tissue to help balance the pH and establish a stronger beneficial bacterial presence. When the pH becomes too alkaline in the vaginal tissues, the fungus has a better growth environment.

Most, if not all fatty acids have antifungal properties. Undecenoic, caprylic, and lauric acid are long-chain fatty acids that have antifungal effects. Short-chain fatty acids like butyric acid also have antifungal effects, as do coconut oil, olive oil, etc. As far as I know berberine is not an antibiotic, as most herbals aren’t antibiotics. You could concentrate them in a way that may produce more of an antibiotic effect, but in general they just inhibit fungus. [End]

I don’t think that you’re overdoing it. I recommend that you do it in specific order/sequence in order to get the best results.

Hello, ... ... The MegaFood company has a great 50 billion probiotic, but has S. Cerevisiae in it. They claim it shouldn’t be an issue for candida. Here’s what they state: ... ”Saccharomyces cerevisiae, or nutritional yeast, is a nourishing whole food and not a pathogenic yeast. It does not cause the growth or proliferation of Candida or other yeast infections. In fact, S. cerevisiae produces anti-fungal compounds that inhibit the growth of pathogenic micro-organisms such as Candida and E. Coli.

S. cerevisiae is so similar to candida albicans that it is used interchangably in research. The Saccharomyces species is one of the emerging strains in yeast/fungal infections. Candida albicans can trigger Sacchromyces to convert to its filamentous form. The people at MegaFood aren’t reading the research. ... ...

Canker sores are generally due to a deficiency of L-lysine or vitamin A/carotenoids. I would try taking a carotenoid complex like the one from Country Life. This helps to maintain healthy mucous membranes. I haven’t seen that before, but it may just be a part of your body’s detoxification process.

Hi Dr. Jeff, ... ... 1. I always read about how high fat and high protein (meaning good fats, like coconut oil, and good grass raised beef) are fine for the body, and great even for your plan. I’m currently on your plan, and am concerned I am eating too many vegetables and too little protein. I do use I few tablespoons of coconut oil daily. ... ... I make a large soup that usually lasts me 5-6 days. It consists of Kale, Cauliflower, Cabbage, Celery, Carrots, Broccoli, Onions, Leeks, Ginger, Garlic, and a whole chicken (all organic). The question is, do you think I’m consuming too many carbs from veg ...

Hi Dr McCombs, I have been getting a lot of pressure lately to take antibiotics for my acne problems. Even from a lady that is an alternative healthcare practitioner. I don’t want to do it because I already went through your plan and don’t want to undo restoration of the beneficial flora. Taking antibiotics will surly put me back where I was before the plan correct? And I always understood that taking antibiotics for acne will get rid of it initially but it will come back much worse, is that correct? A dermatologist was trying to get me to take antibiotics for a three month period, she sa ...

Wow! I wont lie, some of that sounds a little scary. Thank you for your reply, I respect and appreciate your knowledge and time. Just really shows me that most people are extremely misinformed when it comes to antibiotics. [End]

Have you tried anything to heal your gut- like this for instance? ... ... http://www.iherb.com/Well-Wisdom-Glut-Immune-10-6-oz-300-g/4801?at=0 ... ... all reviews are positive, but some even say it helps their liver and skin conditions, im sure it would help inflammation on the skin the positive way- boosting the immune system. Antibiotics kill it, as Dr. Jeff has taught us. ... ... [End]

That was epic. I’ll read through it again a little more slowly when I have time. There’s more known about the immune system than when this was written. Immune research that came out of the mid-80s identified the Th1 and Th2. Recent research has identfied Th17 and Tregs as playing a role in some conditions that were previously thought to be caused by Th1 responses. We’re still learning more. ... ... The article shifts back and forth between fact and opinion which can be misleading because it makes the opinion seem like a continuation of the fact. [End]

I had the book a year or so ago, but then we moved. When we moved into our new place, somehow the book that had the recipe in it went missing. I used the marinade all the time and I sorely miss it. It’s the one that has the following ingredients in it and is used primarily with chicken: ... ... Bragg’s Liquid Aminos ... Lemon Juice ... Ginger ... Chopped garlic ... olive oil ... ... and I can’t remember the rest. You put them all in a blender and then use the blended marinade over the chicken. If anyone can give me the rest of the ingredients and the amounts of all the ingredients, I would be very apprecia ...
