Mold Toxicity
Mycotoxin Illness
What is Mold Toxicity?
Mold toxicity is a severe illness that is often misunderstood and misdiagnosed by conventional medical doctors. It is common for a mold patient to visit multiple doctors and pay thousands of dollars in lab-work, only to be told they are not sick. Even worse, many of these patients are told their illness is psychological and are prescribed mind altering medications like antidepressants to manage their complaints. Clearly these people are suffering from very real dysfunctions in the body – many are diagnosed with fibromyalgia, chronic fatigue syndrome, multiple chemical sensitivities, rapid unexplained weight gain/loss, just to name a few. Additionally, they tend to experience a series of unrelated symptoms that mysteriously appear, usually after a major life event. These can include moving into a new home/office, physical or emotional trauma, or serious illness.
How we treat Mold & Mycotoxin Illness
We utilize cutting edge lab tests that accurately identify and measure mycotoxin illnesses. This data combined with our medical expertise allows us to create targeted protocols that produce powerful results.
- Organic Acids Test
- Mycotoxin Metabolite Profile
- Gut Health & Pathogen Stool Panel
Those with mold toxicity often have bacterial and fungal overgrowth in the intestines. These infections impede the body’s ability to detoxify and need to be dealt with. We use natural and prescription antifungals to kill mold and fungal colonization in the GI and respiratory tract.
Detoxification is foundational to healing from mold related illnesses. We address multiple body systems simultaneously to support a safe and effective detox of mold.
- Ozone therapy
- Liver support
- Gallbladder support
- Glutathione
- IgG therapy
- Probiotic therapy
Binders are oral supplements that catch and hold mycotoxins – plus other harmful substances – and prevent them from being reabsorbed in the intestinal tract. Over time this lowers the total mycotoxin load and resulting chronic inflammation.
Natural Binders
- Activated Charcoal
- Bentonite Clay
- Zeolite Clay
- Chitosan
- Pectin Fiber
Prescription Binders
- Cholestyramine
- Welchol
