Is Mold Ruining Your Health?
Hi,
Last week we talked about mercury. This week, let’s move to another one that flies under the radar — mold and mycotoxins.
Here’s the truth: mold exposure is largely ignored by most Western medicine doctors. Not because it’s not real — but because most are simply not up to date on the research, or worse, just don’t know what to do about it.
For a lot of people dealing with fatigue, brain fog, allergies, or autoimmunity… mold very well may be part of the picture.
🦠 Where It Comes From
You can’t always see mold, but your body can surely feel it. One of the more common mold toxins is called Ochratoxin A (OTA) — and it shows up in some sneaky places:
Water-damaged buildings – behind drywall, under floors, in basements
Food – coffee, wine, dried fruit, grains, peanuts, and even chocolate
Appliances – washing machines, dishwashers, or AC units that stay damp inside
🧽 Quick tip: You clean washing machines and other suspect areas with hypochlorous acid (like Clean Republic or Force of Nature). It’s mold-killing, non-toxic, and way better than bleach fumes.
⚠️ Why It Matters
Ochratoxin A has been linked to:
Liver and kidney stress
Immune suppression (hello, recurring colds)
Brain fog, fatigue, and mood changes
Autoimmune flare-ups in people who already have immune imbalances
🛡 How to Support Detox
Your body can clear mold toxins — but only if your detox pathways are working well.
🔗 My Go-To Binders:
Take Sumi Supreme – carbonized bamboo; gentle, powerful, and natural
Biotoxin Binder (CellCore) – broad-spectrum, especially for mold
Smilax Supreme – helps your body adapt and detox
Morinda Supreme – supports immune balance and fights microbial overgrowth
⚙️ Liver + Glutathione:
Your liver is the workhorse in this process.
Support it with:
Trizomal Glutathione (Apex Energetics) – my favorite daily glutathione for deep cellular detox
Nutrients like milk thistle, NAC, and phosphatidylcholine to keep things flowing
🧬 For Autoimmune or Gut Issues
If you’re someone with autoimmunity, or you’ve been dealing with chronic gut issues that just won’t quit — it’s worth checking whether your immune system is actually reacting to mold.
The Cyrex BiomeBurden™ Test is amazing for this. It looks at whether your immune system is reacting to mold, mycotoxins, or fungal proteins — not just exposure, but immune activation.
That helps us figure out how big a priority detox should be in your plan.
We’ll keep building on detox and immune recovery in the coming weeks — but if mold has been part of your story, this is your reminder: it’s not all in your head, and it’s absolutely something you can address with the right plan.
