I've personally found Mercola's methods a bit "off" too. I've heard that about yeast before, but not through Huggins and not quite that positively. Just wondering if you've tried astragalus or plant sterols for your immune system? I have autoimmune issues and find that particularly, for me, astragalus helps. I had a hard time consistently taking....this formula - can't think of name - starts with an M) brand that touted for balancing the immune system just cause it recommended taking on an empty stomach. (Have to take armour thyroid on my empty stomach in a.m and then get hungry...then my stomach isn't empty...) Now its expired...still taking, though, here and there. But Astragalus does seem to help me keep my resistance up. I take garlic pills nightly, too, to offset candida, etc. I'm sure you know about that, though.
