   Mold In Your Environment And Its Effect On Your Microbiome

   Moldy, a documentary on mold damage and the negative effects it has on your   
   body, by Dave Asprey, is shedding light on how breathing in toxic mold spores   
   creates a snowballing effect with the bacteria in the body.    
      
   Asprey says when the fungus metabolites in the air are ingested through your   
   nostrils or airway, signals are sent to bacteria in the body to form biofilms.    
      
   Many researchers say biofilms are growing all the time in your body as an   
   effort to protect your body from something. The film on your teeth right now   
   is a biofilm. If you have a breast implant or a knee replacement there is a   
   biofilm around these    
   objects. If there are yeast colonies or worms they are encased in biofilms.    
   They are present with mold contaminants.

   Reading the body for potential exposure to mold includes dark circles under   
   the eyes, bags under your eyes, a yellow tint to your skin in general or   
   specifically a yellow tint to your face or creases of the body like the   
   creases in your armpits, backs of    
   your knees or even on the palms of your hands and soles of your feet. Some   
   people experience pain in the nostrils while others feel nothing at all   
   because they are not sensitive to the feelings of their body.    
      
   Mycotoxins are toxic molds, Dr. Amy Myers says.

   When a compromised immune system encounters a mycotoxin it causes issues.   
   Other people simply have allergies to molds, which is an immune response.    
      
   Molds are everywhere, thousands of varieties and breeds. Some off-gass VOCs or   
   what is considered toxic gasses which you can not see. This is why multiple   
   people in the house can be exposed to molds but only one of them get sick -   
   there is an underlying    
   immune response happening.    
      
   One of the first steps in assisting with mold is removing yourself from the   
   moldy environment. Many people are incapacitated with mold toxicity due to an   
   already overloaded liver. The addition of mold spores on top of the already   
   toxic situation is just    
   too much. For many, this is not an option. A good temporary test to see if    
   you have a mold issue in your home is to see if your symptoms go away when   
   you're on vacation or visiting a family member for the holiday.    
      
   Cleaning and removing the moldy environment should be done with proper   
   clothing and protection as well as breathing protection apparatuses like this   
   one if needed as well as proper cleaning products which is most often vinegar.   
   If you suffer from a    
   compromised immune system and toxicity from mold this job is best left to the   
   professionals.    
      
   If the environment is in an ongoing damp environment, like living in moist and   
   rainy Ireland, use a dehumidifier if possible. Like all products, different   
   air cleaners and different dehumidifiers are not rated equally.    
      
   Sterilizing essential oils can assist in sanitizing the air through a   
   diffuser. Some people with sensitive children say this is very helpful.   
   Sanitizing the air is a traditional and historic practice for many cultures.   
   The top three air sanitizing    
   essential oils are eucalyputus, ravensara and tea tree oil.    
      
   The Journal Of Occupational And Environmental Medicine says, "About 5% of   
   individuals are predicted to have some allergic airway symptoms from molds   
   over their lifetime."    
      
   ID-10025698They go on to say, "The leading pathogenic fungi for persons with   
   nonimpaired immune function, Blastomyces, Coccidioides, Cryptococcus, and   
   Histoplasma, may find their way indoors with outdoor air but normally do not   
   grow or propagate indoors.    
   Due to the ubiquity of fungi in the environment, it is not possible to prevent   
   immunecompromised individuals from being exposed to molds and fungi outside   
   the confines of hospital isolation units. Some molds that propagate indoors   
   may under some    
   conditions produce mycotoxins that can adversely affect living cells and   
   organisms by a variety of mechanisms."    
      
   Toxins says, "Patients who develop chronic illness after prior exposure to   
   water damaged buildings and mold have the presence of mycotoxins, which can be   
   detected in the urine. We hypothesized that the mold may be harbored   
   internally and continue to    
   release and/or produce mycotoxins which contribute to ongoing chronic illness.   
   The sinuses are the most likely candidate as a site for the internal mold and   
   mycotoxin production."    
      
   They found mycotoxins present in dust after mold exposure and the presence of   
   mold in the body long after exposure. They reported, "Many of these patients   
   have remained chronically ill despite leaving the moldy environment several   
   years previous to the    
   urine testing. This suggested to us that there may well be an internal   
   presence of toxin producing mold."    
      
   Test kits like this one can be swabbed in the nasal cavity to detect mycotoxin   
   spores. This test can be fully completed at home and does not need to be sent   
   to a lab. Many veterinarians use the same test for animals. Other tests, like   
   this one, can be    
   used on contact with the potentially moldy surface showing if mold spores   
   exist.    
      
   The Scientific World Journal says, "Mechanisms of illness include   
   inflammation, oxidative stress, toxicity, infection, allergy, and irritant   
   effects of exposure." They resolve, "Commonly used treatments such as   
   glutathione, antioxidants, antifungals, and    
   sequestering agents such as Cholestyramine, charcoal, clay and chlorella,   
   antioxidants, probiotics, and induced sweating."    
      
   Specifically they say, "The treatment approaches include the use of   
   sequestering agents, antioxidant support, systemic, nebulized and intranasal   
   glutathione, probiotics, nutritional support, and the correction of persistent   
   fungal infections or    
   symptomatic colonization. Also, the use of sauna and exercise can be   
   invaluable in helping to restore the health of those injured from their   
   exposure."    
      
   The most effective way to repair glutathione stores is through properly   
   prepared meat stock.
