If you’ve got issues with your gut, including chronic bloating and pain, it could signify an overgrowth of candida. What’s that? Tune into our show with immunologist specialist and author Dr. Dean Mitchell, who wrote, “Conquering CANDIDA, The 30-DAY PROTOCOL for Restoring Your Microbiome and Health.”

This is a comprehensive look into what might be going on in your gut, more
specifically, the overgrowth of candida. What is candida, what are the symptoms, how is it diagnosed, and how to get relief? Dr. Mitchell will cover all the bases, discuss the four stages of candida, and offer a 30-day nutritional plan to alleviate issues associated with candida, which can often go undiagnosed.

In a nutshell, candida overgrowth is an imbalance in the normal levels of candida in the body, caused by a variety of things including antibiotics. Symptoms include a weakened immune system, bloating, abdominal pain, fatigue, and more. During our interview, we’ll get to the bottom of it so people can get answers and ultimately relief. Dr. Mitchell is a board-certified immunologist and a pioneer in holistic immunology. He is the founder of Mitchell Medical Group, specializing in the diagnosis and treatment of
candida overgrowth, mast cell activation syndrome, in addition to toxic mold exposure.

Jihan K, Director of “My Father and Qaddafi”

Welcome to our show an extraordinary woman, filmmaker, and human rights activist, Jihan K, whose documentary, “My Father and Qaddafi,” unravels the disappearance of her dad, Mansur Rashid Kikhia, a peaceful opposition leader to Muammar Qaddafi who vanished when she was just six-years-old.

The film seeks to piece together her mother’s 19-year search to find her husband. Without any memory of her father, Jihan tries to reconnect with him and reconcile with her Libyan identity, taking on a reflective journey as she tries to piece together the memory of a man she barely remembers.

Mansur Rashid Kikhia served as Libya’s foreign minister, ambassador to the United Nations, and was a human rights lawyer. For many, he was a rising star who could have been the next leader of Libya.

After serving under Qaddafi, he defected from the government and became an opposition leader. In 1993, he disappeared from his hotel in Egypt, never to be seen again. Jihan’s mother, Baha Al Omary, a strong-willed Syrian-American artist, began searching for him, launching the family into an international political maze. Nineteen hears later, his body was found in a freezer near Qaddafi’s palace.

Through encounters with family, her father’s colleagues, and historical archives, Jihan’s search for truth evolves into a deeper curiosity, and we’ll talk about that.

David Ross Goldblum, Director of “Big Rock Burning” Documentary

Deborah Kobylt Live

David Goldblum’s short film, “Big Rock Burning,” is creating a lot of good heat for the pointed questions it’s raising since the devastating fires that charred thousands of properties in Malibu and the Palisades (not to mention Altadena), and he joins our program LIVE to talk about his film and the harrowing experiences so many have had since leaving their homes on January 7th, returning to the ashes of a life that so many are struggling to put back together.

The film depicts the stories of 49 Malibu residents impacted by the fires, and
chronicles the resilient spirit of the residents of Big Rock, and their intent to rebuild. But little has happened in the months that have followed, and while people are still grieving, they want action and accountability. David says residents have been left to fend for themselves to sort through government red-tape and insurance nightmares, and they’re growing weary. Their stories have attracted some celeb residents as well, such as Mark Hamill and Ricki Lake, who talks about losing her home and the emotional impact it’s had on her and her friends and neighbors.

Malibu is a multi-generational community and so many have lived in their homes since childhood. And while it’s a peaceful community, it’s not without its challenges, too, and the fire dangers are one of them. People know the risks, but many say they don’t expect the lack of help and resources from local government, and the film addresses that.

Please join our full interview with David Goldblum on all video and audio platforms of #DeborahKobyltLIVE, and please encourage your friends to join, too. I’m your host, #DeborahZaraKobylt, and it’s my pleasure to welcome you here. The film is currently in the middle of its Oscar-qualifying theatrical run through 9/18 at the Laemmle in Santa Monica, so if you’re close by, here’s your opportunity to see it.
