Mould and Mycotoxins... the secret saboteurs of your health...
Fungus, Mould and Mycotoxins...
A major underlying root cause of symptoms...
Fungus, moulds and mycotoxins can be a problem for human health because they produce toxic compounds that can cause a variety of health issues. When people are exposed to mould and mycotoxins, they may experience symptoms such as respiratory problems, allergies, skin irritation, headaches, fatigue, and in severe cases, neurological damage. Ingesting foods contaminated with mycotoxins can also lead to food borne illnesses and even cancer. As such, it is important to take steps to prevent mould growth and to ensure that foods are properly stored and handled to minimise the risk of exposure to mycotoxins.
​
Signs that fungus, mould and mycotoxins may be affecting you:
-
Standard Lyme, EBV, MCAS, SIMO protocols have been ineffective
-
You may feel temporarily better with standard protocols but quickly relapse once treatment stops
-
You are super reactive to your environment and multiple foods
-
You have seen countless health professionals and are not getting better
-
You are sensitive to certain supplements and medication
"By obsessively targeting bacteria and viruses, our current healthcare and hygiene systems are inadvertently creating the prefect environment for mould and fungus to rise to power with disastrous consequences."
Fungus, Mould and Mycotoxins
Fungal species form part of a normal biome but are opportunistic
Fungal infections in humans, are caused by various types of fungi. The mycobiome refers to the collection of fungal species, such as candida, trichophyton and malassezia that are commonly present on our skin or in our bodies. These species generally do not cause any harm, but in certain conditions, such as overuse of antibiotics, they can out-compete other species that help keep them in check, leading to symptoms such as athlete's foot, ringworm, thrush, and candidiasis. Fungal infections, can be difficult to eradicate, especially in people with weakened immune systems.
​
The research into the mycobiome is still in its early stages, however it is thought to play an important role in maintaining health and preventing disease.. Some studies have suggested that changes in the mycobiome may be associated with certain health conditions, such as inflammatory bowel disease, asthma and even the development of cancer.
