Mold and Mycotoxins, What They Are, And How To
Protect Yourself.

What is Mycotoxins?

• Mycotoxins are poisonous compounds produced by
  certain molds. The effects of mycotoxins in
  humans can range from mild to severe, depending
  on the type of mold and the amount of exposure.
  Mold toxicity is a growing concern for many
  people, and for good reason. Mold can grow in
  your home, even if you don't see it. And the
  toxins produced by mold can cause health
  problems.

Types of Mycotoxins

• There are three types of mycotoxins
• 1. Aflatoxins are produced by molds that grow on
  grains, nuts, and tree crops. They can grow in
  warm, moist conditions, so they're often found in
  tropical climates.
• 2. Ochratoxins are produced by molds that grow on
  coffee beans and other food products like cereal
  grains and dried fruit. They can also be found in
  beer and wine.
• 3. Patulin is a type of mycotoxin that can be
  found in apples and grapes.
• But there are many mold toxicity treatments

Mold Neurological Symptoms

• Mold neurological symptoms can come in many
  forms. While the most common are headaches,
  dizziness, and fatigue, some people experience
  nausea or vomiting, changes in vision and
  hearing, numbness in the extremities, or memory
  loss.

Mold Toxicity Treatment

• Anti-fungal medication - This option is best for
  people who are looking for an immediate solution
  while they work on getting rid of the mold in
  their home. It can also be used as a supplement
  to other treatments.
• Homeopathic remedies - These remedies are made
  from natural ingredients and have no known side
  effects. They can be used alongside antifungal
  medications or alone if you don't want to take
  any medication at all.
• Dietary changes - Diet plays a huge role in how
  your body responds to different kinds of toxins,
  so it makes sense that it would play a role in
  how well your body handles mold exposure as well!
  Many people find that changing what they eat
  helps them feel better faster than any other
  treatment.

Mold Detox Protocol

• Mold detox protocols are an essential part of
  mold remediation. The process of removing mold
  from a home can release spores into the air,
  causing further damage to your health and the
  health of your loved ones.
• The following steps will help you get started
  with a successful mold detox protocol
• Wash all clothes and bedding in hot water and
  detergent.
• Remove any wall hangings or photos containing
  mold, as well as any items that have been in
  contact with mold.
• Open all windows and doors for ventilation.
• Clean thoroughly with disinfectant cleaner,
  scrubbing hardwood floors and shower tiles with a
  stiff brush or sponge mop.

Detox Your Home From Mold Toxicity

• Detox your home is to make sure you have a
  mold-free environment. Mold can grow on anything,
  so even if you don't see any visible signs of it
  right now, it's important to check for mold
  toxins in your home.
• You should start by cleaning up any visible mold
  from your house. This includes checking behind
  walls, under sinks and in closets. If you find
  any growths of mold in these areas then use
  bleach or hydrogen peroxide to kill them off
  completely before moving forward with the rest of
  your detox plan!
• Next up is removing any sources of moisture that
  could lead to future outbreaks of mold growth.
  This includes fixing leaky pipes under sinks or
  toilets as well as checking for leaks underneath
  floorboards or walls where water may have
  collected over time.

Conclusion

• There are many links between mold toxicity and
  neurological symptoms. Research shows mycotoxins
  can affect the connective tissue, nerves, brain,
  liver, kidneys, and muscles of humans. This can
  lead to impaired balance and coordination, speech
  problems, depression, and memory loss. Mycotoxins
  have also been linked to liver disease, asthma,
  HIV infection, and AIDS. While there are certain
  steps you can take to remove mold and mycotoxins
  from your body, the effects of long-term exposure
  will be more difficult to overcome. You must
  detox your home, and you must detox your body.
  You must rid your body of mold toxins. When the
  body has been affected so greatly, slow
  detoxification is needed to properly heal the
  nervous system and restore normal brain activity.
