Jenny McCarthy revealed a recent health scare that impacted her life. Things became intense and began snowballing over a long period of time.
As her issues became more extensive, Jenny became more and more frustrated. The health scare took place over the span of a year.
The TV star spoke of how the health battle affected her life
Jenny discussed her scary health battle on Maria Menounos’ Heal Squad podcast on Tuesday, March 31. Her symptoms started with a root canal that became infected because it wasn’t “cleaned out all the way.”
The Masked Singer judge said, “The last time I was here, I was literally on my way to the biological dentist because I had gone through six months of living hell. Three of these little toxic pools hiding underneath my wisdom teeth.”
A jawbone infection then developed, and other problems came about. Jenny became frustrated as the infections continued. By November 2025, she was on her ninth mouth surgery within the year.
This then resulted in a frightening eye growth. Jenny described this as “nastiest whitehead, puss-filled eraser top. I’m like, ‘What the heck is this?’ They’re like, you’re not washing your eyes enough. I’m like bullsh*t,” she said.
After the growth was removed, it grew back in about a month. During this time, Jenny had a mouth infection and implant rejection. “I’m like, ‘What is going on. What is happening?’ My functional medicine doctor said, ‘OK, hold on. You’re the healthiest patient I have. We gotta go dig deeper,’” she recalled.
The breakthrough moment occurred after a mold exposure test. “The reason why you’re having constant infections, your body won’t heal, you’re oozing things is because you have mold. You have mycotoxin poisoning,” Jenny said.
She discovered mold releases this toxin in the dust particles, which most people can handle. However, this is not the case in people with weaker immune systems, leaky gut and candida like Jenny.
“I have a certain mold that causes seizures. [My doctor] goes, ‘If this thing that you’ve got crosses the blood-brain barrier, you’re going to be in the hospital having seizures, I’m like, ‘Oh, my God.’ I became antibiotic-resistant last year,” she said. “The mycotoxins made me antibiotic resistant, so no wonder why infection, infection, infection. I was taking all these antibiotics that weren’t working for me anymore.”
Jenny is now on the road to recovery after being put “on a heavy-duty mold protocol.”
