Black mold is easily distinguishable from other molds because, not surprisingly, it tends to be dark black. Black mold is most likely to rear its ugly head in areas of the home that are warm, humid and damp. In addition to showers, basements and crawlspaces that may have leaks are commonly susceptible.
Black mold exposure and black mold poisoning can cause a wide range of health problems. Some symptoms can be really serious. In this episode of Ancient Medicine Today, I’m sharing how by cleansing your body and making changes in your home, you can overcome and prevent black mold symptoms. Watch to learn more.

Actually suicidal depression is a huge one, and sense of rage and desperation.
I've been fighting anxiety attacks outvof the blue.... after this whole a test home orders. I feel terrible.
TRUE!!!
For some reason my suicidal depression, rage and desperation vanished January 20th 2021. Not sure what might have caused the mold in my house to suddenly vanish at that time. But no suicidal depression and rage anymore..
@@hebercc1
I think that’s called “Trump Derangement Syndrome” lol 😂
Yes very true
I'm in West Virginia and ALL DOCTORS, HERE, HAVE NO CLUE AND ACTUALLY REJECT ANYONE THAT REACHES OUT HELP!!!
I am now being controlled as a mental patient. My daughter, brother and sister are targeting me with scofng at the truth that I found an old rug, wet, covered with rugs full of black mold. There for over 6 years.
PLEASE PRAY FOR ME AND MY FAMILY, AS THEY LEARN THAT I WAS RIGHT.
It's because they're probably toxic from it.
praying for you
Same you're not alone.
@@Christandnature LORD JESUS HELP US. WE NEED HELP. BIG PHARMA AND MD DOCTORS HAVE KILLED MILLIONS. SO MANY ARE SUFFERING. LORD JESUS COME QUICKLY.
I’ve used all of these for a mold infection & it just saved my mother & I’s life.
How did y’all feel different , may I ask ?
Do you still have mold in your house? My mom refused to do anything about the mold in the drywall behind the tiles in the bathroom, because it's "too expensive" & she feels fine (although heavily medicated). She said I just need back on antidepressants, which I took for a few months last year (I took the only ones that ever worked for me) & they did nothing!
How did you use the bentonite clay and activated charcoal? How often and how much for each dose? How long did it take you to get better? I'm using oils of oregano and garlic in coconut oil, ACV, a neti pot, xlear nasal spray with grapefruit seed extract and xylitol for about 6 weeks. I'm a bit better, but still get tired very easy. I hope the clay and charcoal will do the trick and look forward to your response!
I just switched from months of activated charcoal to bentonite clay. I THINK it is working much better vs the mold and heavey metals like methyl mercury from candida.
@FrostyBud777 How often do you use the bentonite clay? Do you use anything else along with it?
I sneeze at any hint of mold contamination, and people think my body is sick because I sneeze, however they are the,ones that breathe the mold deep in their lungs daily in places i cannot even be in for a second without a sneeze attack. Please believe your body, landlords and homeowners must be responsible to keep homes safe. If you sneeze and hurting eyes this is not you being sick, your body is protecting yourself.
Did everything you recommended, it really helped. It took about 9 months but I think I have finally got rid of most of the symptoms. On the mend. Thank you
How are you doing now??
I hope you are still doing well!
No more symptoms?
What were your synthoms
I'm now going to be in the road to health...
I am a licensed and certified mold assessor and testing contractor. I love the natural remedies. I get a lot of exposure and Clove bud oil is my go to. I am going to be trying some of the Doctors other recommendations.
We suspect mold on our home.. what type of company should I contact to come test for mold.. near Las Vegas.. thanks..
This is my natural diet, I learned all this from the Bible. It's amazing to see he's sharing this knowledge with the
world.
HalleluYah 🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻

Where is it in the bible
OTL Kuband ... where is this in the Bible ??
i know i was shocked to see so many answers in the bible, like garlic and ginger and other natural things it tells you in there. it saved my life
I was just diagnosed with mold toxicity. The gliotoxin is 8 times what it should be. I have been told over the years by several doctors that they have no idea what to do with me anymore. I went to the Cleveland Clinic one year ago today and was diagnosed a couple of weeks ago. I am thrilled to finally find out what's been going on for the last 15 years. Everything finally makes sense. Thank you for educating and helping others heal naturally.
What kind of test did they do?
Ok
what were your symtoms?
hello what were your symotms and medication?
I’m so sorry you went through this. Dr’s are horrible to tell you they don’t know what to do for you anymore! 🤬 Sounds about right tho… I myself should be on an episode of mystery diagnosis
I was in a water damaged house for about a year when I started developing horrible symptoms. Brain fog, heart palpitations, puffy face, memory issues, low t3 syndrome, cold hands and feet, numbness in fingers, and food sensitivities. Even developed stomach issues (burping, constipation, etc.)
I’m currently starting to detox with GI detox binders, raw garlic, and liposomal glutathione. I’ll update this every so often to let everyone know how it’s going.
Hey man i have the exact same issues but have been in the water damaged house for a lot longer unfortunately. Hows are you doing?
How are you doing now?
the mold killed him@@jrobert6916
Wow! I've been sick for over two months. Finally got an allergy test and mold came back high! Same symptoms with the heart palpitations. Hope all is well now!
Just as predicted, you didn't update on anything.
I’ve been dealing with mold, Candida, Lyme, CEBV etc. Western Medicine has CONTINUED to fail me and my family. I’ve seen about 60 doctors in the matter of 8 years and you’re totally right, lots of diagnosis with no known etiology. Which is a joke in itself. Their answer is to load me up on med after med w continuing multiplying symptoms. It makes me fearful for or future but happy that functional medicine is becoming more mainstream year after year ~ the flicker of light for our country. A big one for me after getting out of the environment~ which I thought would make a huge difference~ (I actually got worse) is realizing that if you have mold you also most definitely have Candida and possibly varying other parasites. Serious cleansing and opening pathways is essential!
be lovely Try raw apple cider vinegar that has "mother' in it. Mix 1 teaspoon to a cup of warm water and drink. It does wonders as a detox. Also the raw apple cider vinegar can be used to spray mold growth in homes when mixed with hydrogen peroxide. PS it also helps with other symptoms you mentioned.
please read Dr John E Sarno.
be lovely I know how bad it sucks. I also had that same trifecta, for over 25 years & it usually only gets worse until deeper roots are figured it out & it’s properly treated. Been studying natural medicine for 12 years, & have found multiple effective treatments. Let me know if u still need help finding answers
I would highly recommend you to research pure gum spirits of Turpentine and research Dr. Jennifer Daniels. She explains how pure Turpentine has been used for thousands of years to get rid of worms, parasites in the body. It is a very powerful essential oil from the pine tree and is anti-fungal, anti-bacterial and has hundreds of other benefits.
@@Brockt87 what methods do you have for this I know someone who needs help with natural remedies for it
Thank you for saying “It’s not in your head.” I was so sick, bedridden, had to quit work, doctors gave me every test, nothing showed up, so they said it was in my head and I was delusional and sent me to a mental hospital and got a court order forcing me to take schizophrenic meds. I got worse and almost died. Took me three years to find out it was black mold in my body. Finally found a Dr who can help me. There’s a lot more to the story-it was a horrible nightmare, to say the least.
Ms. Laura do you mind sharing your symptoms? I’m dealing with symptoms now. Hope your doing much better now.
Did you have upper respiratory symtoms like runny nose, cough,Asthma, stift nose,sinus problems? Do you mine sharing all your symtoms so I can learn please
@@naomikhalif6954 my symptoms started as difficulty breathing but oximeter showed 98% so no one believed me. Burning and swollen throat, dizzy, disoriented, feeling of being outside my body, anxiety, depression (mycotoxins block seratonin production). GERD, pain in chest, abdomen, back, weird sensation in abdomen I can’t explain. Numbness in legs, eczema and numbness on lips, bladder pain, weakness, fatigue. I was finally diagnosed with mast cell activation syndrome triggered by mold toxicity. I still have symptoms but am starting an antifungal for aspergillosis. I tested positive for aspergillus niger which can cause infection in lung. I really hope it works.
@@kellynewman862 mold can trigger something called mast cell activation syndrome. Read book by Neil Nathan, MD called Toxic.
oh my gosh i’m glad i read thru this literally been sick since feb doctor told me oh it’s in ur head just got test me and my kids our sick smh 🤦🏾♀️ i’m thankful for this
Thank you so much for this video my doctor recently said to me it was all in my head. I have developed severe chronic fatigue syndrome since moving to an apartment in California, i literally feel like it's killing me and no doctor believes me because all of my blood work comes back normal. I get severe nasal allergies almost daily, severe headache, severe chronic fatigue, and breathlessness. I really need to move out of this place. I have all of these. Thank you for raising awareness.
Hello ThatNoraChick! Have you tried sinus rince with saline water ?
I had to have a sinuses surgery last year... apparently, my sinuses were completely jammed! 0_0 I now have to do the sinus rince EVERY SINGLE DAY! -_-
yt36 So, did you try any of Dr. Axe suggestions? If yes, how did they work for you.
yt36 I live in CA now I'm looking into this all though were supposedly in a drought I am pretty sure I have mold in Mygarage where I happen to work out .. not good. what part of CA did you move to? I'm in the east bay area

I thought I had ulcerative colitis bleeding for a year once to twice a month.... I ate bone broth rice cut out gluten etc... nothing worked till I was sitting in my house the kids are getting the flu and i desperately didn't want it so i ordered Oreganol oil and order slippery elm extract to protect any raw area in my bowels. It's been a month and a week I have not bleeding. I am Thankful I'm 41 years old and never was so sick. Now I thank God, my daughter that watched over me & all the Utube videos that educated me on fungus. Truly changed my life. Thank u
I had one doctor state that to me "that my symptoms were all in my head" and I had several doctors that did not treat any of my symptoms. The medical field is a trip!
They don't make money if they cure you. Shame on the medical industry for this practice.
9/10 doctors are just parrots repeating the same book of information. most have no idea what they are doing thry just oerscribe the same things for everything prozac, ibuprofen, steroids. then tell you its all in your head. they should make doctors study western medicine and natural path medicine like mold heVy metals lyme, essential oil herb therapy
Yup same.
Rockefeller model
They are run by pharmaceutical companies. The throw drugs at your symptoms and get kick backs from the big Pharma companies.
I have been waiting for this video! I was exposed to mold for over a year in my air conditioning unit and now have been suffering with symptoms for almost another year. I know it is the mold that made me sick but I have had a doctor tell me that "it was all in my head. Mold cannot inhabit the body". It is ruining my life and caused me depression and anxiety like I have never felt before. Thank you Dr. Axe for telling me that I'm not crazy. I'm not giving up!
Hang in there, you'll get better! Mine was in ac too. Was feeling sick two years before I found it. Once I did, left that place and spent a year healing. I'm so much better now!
Yes, follow what he is saying, it is a long recovery to say the least. I'm been sick for almost a year and been trying since last Oct after seeing allergist to confirm. Hang in there. I also think I had a friend who died. He came by to see me and could hardly breath, I know he was living in a mold environment for years. He didn't go to the Dr. But he sure looked like I did back in Oct. He was like dead in 3 weeks from not being able to breath.
KillAudioLove Most medical doctors are idiots. Ask a mycologist and they'll tell you how damaging it is to live near large mould colonies.
Payr
I need to talk to someone call me st, 904-715 o495
Yep, both my son and I. He's having daily headaches, insomnia, aches and pains, fatigue, problems with vision, depression, etc. Thanks for sharing this info.
Us too plus worse symptoms
Its all in my head......is what my doc told me after i told him i get a headache and shaky if i dont eat breakfast (Im T2). No longer going to doctor a**hole.
Find a Functional Medical doctor. They dig deeper and don't just throw drugs at you.
I have a good friend suffering from mold poisoning and I'm sending him this video right now. Thank you so much!
Spot on. I work at a major top ten college in a humid climate with many old buildings with outdated HVAC systems. I'm a janitor. After 2 years I kept getting sick with all those symptoms and chronic sinus infections. It was becoming seriously debilitating. I was the having the worst problem. Others were not. Eventually noticed regular fuzz looks like lint. Bought a test kit and had it tested. Off the charts mold. I was immediately accommodated when I brought that to bosses attention. Too extensive in all buildings to fix but it's kept moderate with air filters and cleaning. My symptoms are tolerable. Your recommendations are all used by me and do help.
How are you now
You are a gift of God you deserve to be a doctor
I had big results with vegeable soup detox eating some fish. Supplementing cloves, black wall nut and worm wood. I also drank a lot of water (even more) so I would wake up during the night. I would then consume bentonite clay (to keep it removed from other foods) after doing this for 4 days I got heavy healing crisis reactions that I managed with milk thistle and hot detox baths. I got two huge effects from this process. I stopped getting viruses and even when I got it it would barely be evident before that if develop a virus every few weeks and even cold often felt like flu. The other big effect was reduction in chronic restless legs and severe muscle pain in calf's. 36 year old guy.
Fasting was just as successful for me in improved strength, concentration and anxiety reduction.
I'm right around your age and I understand. The fasting was what made me realize how sick I really was. The things coming from my body were not normal or natural and I could visibly see something was not OK and I had extreme fatigue and horrible brain fog. I just moved out of the mold ridden duplex a week ago. Please pray I can continue to heal for it is a battle that's for sure.
@@deniseclark7824 hi Denise I plant o mobe soon as well. Did moving help with the symptoms you mentioned?
@@deniseclark7824what was coming out of your body? 😳
I'm about to move out of a house filled with mold( old, in walls, crawl space & vents)
How did you prepare for moving items so that you did not spread mold?@@deniseclark7824
Every office I have worked in had mold. Seeing a functional med doc is very helpful. Thanks Dr. Axe.
I love your video. I was diagnosed with sinusitis and it hits me really bad from time to time. I realize that whenever I am near mold I get very sick for weeks, it's debilitating. and when I try oregano.. I go well for weeks.. I work with natural products years ago and you just refresh my memory.... this natural medicine it's been used for centuries... please don't stop making this videos. sinusitis also got me very tired... and fatigue.
Thank you I was recently exposed to black mold that was sitting in the air conditioner pan. I told my doctor I believe my air conditioner is getting me sick. I dealt with sinus infections for a few months, brain fog, loss of memory, fatigue, chills, sneezing, sore throat and a rash on my lower back. Right now I’m feeling a lot better but I’m cleaning my air conditioners once a week, also have bought air purifiers for each room in my apartment. Thank you for this informative information.
Thanks for posting this. I've been chronically ill for years with this. I have 30+ symptoms and am disabled because of it. We need all awareness! Thanks ♡
Me too. Hope you find some healing ❤
Aren’t you angry? I can’t find any doctors to help me that aren’t thousands of dollars…
Dr Axe has been such a blessing to me . I have learn so much from him and all the free information that he provides. Wonderful person and caring
Thanks for the info. I never really thought much of mold issues but I now believe I've been exposed to this. I have a lot of symptoms.
Thanks Doc.... you are the Man. many people around the world are suffering, and we are so blessed to have people like you.....
I dont know why I haven’t come across this sooner Dr. Axe, thank you! Ive been told by my allergist and dermatologist that I just had eczema but they never ask or cared about the source. Several years back I moved into some apartments that I truly believe with all my heart and soul that there was black mold in the walls. I broke out in an eczema rash from literally head to toe and feel into a depression. I broke my lease when I couldn’t breathe one rainy night and my health has not been the same. But I have been so motivated not only to become more healthy but to create and educate others with my own TH-cam channel. I will detox with your recommendations, thank you so much!!!
Did you have upper respiratory symtoms like runny nose, cough,Asthma, stift nose,sinus problems? Do you mine sharing all your symtoms so I can learn please
OMG!! I'm going through this right now!! N just found black mole under the tiles because I always mopping!! Thanks for sharing I'm sooo grateful for this video Dr.
@Dr Josh Axe, thank you for this! Ironically yesterday I saw my Chiropractor Dr. Roy and we were talking about inflammation and non alcoholic fatty liver disease and I mentioned that a Doc I follow talks about being less dogmatic and more intuitive and he asked if it was you. He says he went to college with you and then today I look up black mold clearing methods (as I'm dealing with that too) and you pop up on my TH-cam! 🤩
Add Manuka honey to your list of anti-fungal anti -bacterial, etc. It is amazing in helping heal.
Man I need this mold ain't no joke but God is good 🙏 I'm still here

Thanks mate this is totally spot-on! I live in Queensland in the tropics of Australia and have suffered ongoing black mould poisoning as it was growing through both of our air conditioning units. Being from the dry south I never knew of the dangers, but the locals do. After repeated lung and sinus infections, fever symptoms, courses of antibiotics there was no relief. It was the brain fog and neurological symptoms that told me there was something was really wrong. Finally my doctor asked about the home environment and potential sources of mould. We've now had all the air conditioners professionally cleaned and are in the process of de-moulding the house, things have already improved. Thanks for your help with the mould detox, comprehensive and just what I needed to get onto now.
He is just straight to the point, some people Strech to 30 minutes to 1 hour, with no value information in it.
Definitely seeing great improvement with sour sop matcha green tea 🍵 I always have it with ginger tea and fresh lemon which is definitely even more helpful. I’m going to try some of your other treatments. Thanks so much! 🙏🏻 ✨
DRINK HOMEMADE MILK KEFIR. When I first started making my own milk kefir, I accidentaly drank enough to induce a herxheimers reaction and ended up throwing up a TON of black mold... It was one of the most uncomfortable moments of my life, but it certainly worked! 👍
Thank you so much Dr. Axe for this very informative video.😍🙏
Dr. Axe, your informational videos are appreciated! I have been experiencing symptoms that led me to believe that I have MCAS (mast cell activation syndrome). I’ve been struggling on and off for four years with respiratory issues, shortness of breath, throat tightness, a multitude of food allergies and reactions, anaphylactic type reactions, on top of random neurological issues, and recurrent infections. I found the diagnosis after many doctors couldn’t tell me why my body was acting this way. The #1 trigger? Mold toxicity!
I tested my home for mold and it was found in all rooms tested. Now, I’m taking the steps to heal my body. Thank you for your research!!
Hi Jacqueline, How are you feeling? I have the exact same symptoms and also found mold. I'm curious how you remediated the mold from your home and what helped your body the most. Thanks!
@kimberlym2341 I just found out I have mold spores in my home, and it is expensive to remediate. Clothes, bed, walls, carpet, shoes omg It's like you have to start all over or move. You have to either hire a mold remediation company or the cheap route that may help. True Hepa filter vacuum that removes 99% spores, mop everyday, deep clean your house with cleaners that can remove mold, air purifier that uses a HEPA filter, have your air ducks, low mold diet, activated charcoal and there is more. Just start here.
My entire family, my children extended family, have all suffered seriously from black mold. I am 100% certain that my stage four metastatic breast cancer came from black mold!
Cancer can come from mold 😮
Yes I have all these symptoms !!!! It's also in my blood ! Landlord responsibility. High water damage too
You rock . Dr Axe . Been following you . and seems when I have a question YOU seem to pop right up with the answer . THANKS MAN
Thanks a whole heap, I'm currently dealing with something like this just now.
I did when I lived at my dad's house. The basement was super musky. It gave me psoriasis and ringworm. Felt super tired all the time. Feel much better once I cleansed with clay and also don't live there anymore.
This might save my life.
DettaEve Bites mine too. Btw you are hot
Did it help?
Always informative and concise, very helpful, thank you..
Yes! A medical doctor put me on an immunosuppresant and told me I was experiencing hayfever and the dryness from the new climate (I'm not in my birth country). I eventually turned to my homeopathic doctor and he put me on an anti-mould diet and has requested I go for Darkfield Microscopy. He also noted that I was gluten and dairy sensitive, possibly histamine too. I love your videos and thank you for all you do for us
@altruisticpsyche1605 How are you doing feeling now sir ?
I have been living in a home with mold for almost 4 years. We have had the ceiling leak so badly that it filled 50 gallon totes (4 of them about 2/3 full) with GREEN water. We have a drop ceiling with fiberglass type squares. It has leaked several times to a lesser degree and now there is visible mold in the ceilings, on the walls and in the base boards. When it rains my carpet gets wet from inside the wall.
I rent, and there is no protection in WI. for renters that makes the landlord fix these problems. I wish that this would change. I have COPD, asthma, mold and other allergies, and had lung cancer 6 years ago and had part of a lung removed. I am sick all the time. I am tired all the time. I have a son who has had to have several procedures to expand his esophagus (it was 5mm) due to ALLERGY exposure long term - and this makes me sick. The health department has been in my home and he never fixed anything he was supposed to - but the worst is that they said there is nothing they can do to make him fix the mold.
As of about a week ago I began moving out - finally! I have to leave almost everything I own behind but I have to say that my health had an immediate improvement. SO much better!! I was never able to have someone check the house - as I could not afford it.
People should be protected with renting when it comes to mold.
Kristy Roetter x
Depending on where you live and if you rent. Call and let the home owner let him know the situation. If he does nothing you can call your local codes department and report the landlord and inform them of the black or green mold problem. Be ready to move tho as I heard black mode is very hazardous and expensive to get ride of and codes might just give you a day to move if it's really bad. My family and I spent a whole year in a rental sick all the time till when we finally found the sources of the black mold. It was the showerhead, behind the walls of the bathroom. Plus the area below the bathroom in the basement which was near the furnace which was being spread via air to all rooms whenever the heating system was used. Which in my area is like 8 months out of the year. We move and all the symptoms disappeared. Good luck.
@@01IveR01 Your advice is USELESS, DISMISSIVE, and comes from a place of IGNORANCE. No city holds the landlord responsible, if you move, it's on your own dime, and if you're in "the system", you're just moved to another mold-ridden place with additional problems.
Kristy how do you feel now? Any long term effects?
Totally agree. We can't seem to get help here in rural Nevada.we have slum Lords in the wild west. Glad to hear you moved out of that mess My prayers go with you🙏🙏🙏
Thank you for this video doctor, this is really worth sharing
Thank you for sharing the healing💗
👁🙏👁
Very helpful tips. I am so glad this channel has over 500k subs. This natural health channel is one of the best. I eat alot of garlic and bone marrow all the time.
Thanks for the video! An apartment I lived in here in Vegas was infested w mold in the bathroom to the point the studs disintegrated up a foot!
I never had medical issues until I moved into that apartment and now I have severe, chronic asthma and allergies that’s put me in a coma and multiple hospital visits. Along w fungal polyps that developed in my nostrils and had to have surgery and now need another one. It’s been nonstop since 2015!
Thank you for this video Dr. Axe
rewatched This Video..So Much Great Info..
The same thing happened to my husband he had horrible fungus on his feet and toenails . We went to a natural nail studio and they suggested tea tree oil treatment on his feet once a month . Within 6 months he had new feet and nails I was amazed
Me 2
Raw garlic and oregano definitely works
True
How many do I need to eat per day ?
Thank u
Yea like do you just eat raw garlic? how much and how ? just straight up garlic cloves??
@ClarityEmerald I used a garlic press and added some honey with the garlic after pressed out. Had to choke it down. Very strong!
I purchased allergy glasses and this helped keep the pollen and spores out. Very helpful.
THANK U SO MUCH for this valuable info.
I bought a house in NC and was living there for the last week while updating it for my wife and I. I just kept getting sicker, thinking it was allergies I picked up Claritin. That didn't help so I thought a cold so I got DayQuil and NyQuil and that didn't help. I had noticed the filters on the HVAC system were filthy so I changed them and called in a guy to clean the ducts. Low and behold there was mold thoughtout the system. I have him remediating and I got out of the house. Days later I still have stuffed head with lots of drainage, sore throat with lots of dark mucus, coughing, sneezing, bloody noses, tired, fever, and mild brain fog. I will be starting on your remedies today and hope they start working fast.
Thanks Dr Axe for this important information. I’ve had repeated respiratory problems amongst others and found mold in my bathroom that I’m cleaning out. In the meantime I’ve been treating myself with Apple cider vinegar, Activated charcoal,garlic, Olive Leaf Extract and will try a few other of your suggestions!!
Awesome video, thank you for making this! I also prefer using bentonite clay and activated charcoal to bind mycotoxins.
Thanks Josh I have a mold problem in me and will get on this ASAP.
Mold toxicity can cause mast cell activation syndrome (MCAS). Very serious. You become unable to eat and drink things you could before and have inflammation. I almost died. Everyone here needs to read the book Toxic by Neil Nathan, MD
I just watched a podcast with him as a guest and plan on ordering his book.
Hello, I want to talk now as you asked. I am a 29 year teacher, OSHA sent me paper work that proves all my symptoms are MOLD related.
Roxolana Young School teachers are known to get cancer, which is actually mold-related. I taught for almost 40 years in a flat-roofed building. I personally know of a bunch of the people I worked with who died of cancer, and I am on disability because of systemic mold.
thank you Dr Axe! great info!
Thank you so much for this valuable information!! Blessing
Thanks for the tips. I'm dealing with this now, it's awful. Turns out mycotoxins were the reason my Lyme disease treatment wasn't helping as much as I had hoped. If u have Lyme, get tested for mold mycotoxins, they have to be dealt with first.
Are you using serrapeptase and nattokinase as part of your Lyme disease protocol? They dissolve the biofilm that hides the parasite from immune system detection.
Did you have upper respiratory symtoms like runny nose, cough,Asthma, stift nose,sinus problems? Do you mind sharing all your symtoms so I can learn please
I'm suffering from mold illness along with migraine headaches (was chronic, now episodic) and multiple chemical sensitivity (MCS). I have moved and gotten rid of most my belongings. Synthetic fragrance in laundry detergent, softern, dryer sheets, perfume, shampoo, deodorant, dish soap, other cleaners, cigarette/vape smoke, etc. make me have an instant burning in my head, sometimes lungs and if exposure is long enough, it an trigger a migraine. It's very sensitive and usually when I take a walk outside the air just constantly smells like laundry detergent.
Yes, I've had doctors tell me that it's all in my head. I am now working with a naturopathic doctor who is very supportive. I'm improving everyday, but wanted to post because anyone who reads this --- I would encourage you to significantly reduce your synthetic fragrance exposure -- especially laundry. Wool dryer balls and essential oils are a great replacement. Febreeze or other sprays are chock full of chemicals that are terrible to breathe in and if you have mold issues, chemical fragrance is not your friend! Again -- EOs that are pure and not cut with synthetics are great and beneficial.
Best of luck with recovery!
THANKS DOC I'LL SPREAD THE WORD ABOUT THIS WEALTH OF INFORMATION
Thank you Dr.
Talking about mold yesterday.
I was thinking a remedy for it
Today your advice is interesting.
My sons and I live in a unit with water leaks and when it rains, rains comes thru the ceiling causing a hole to form. There were water spots upon our moving in 2014 now we are seeing the same spots become damp and expand in size. Mold is forming throughout the place, including black mold. All of those symptoms mentioned by you, we are experiencing constantly but we have nowhere else to go. I just pray that we are able to leave soon.
My job's building probably has mold because i have these symptoms as well as other coworkers. I have been doing Betonite clay but only a teaspoon with physllium husk due to the constipation side effect. but i was just doing that for a few weeks. I will try these other ones, thanks for the information.
Thank you for this life changing information!
Fantastic information here! Thanks doc
This is a bit long but worth reading. I worked in a basement of a school. When I entered this building I felt like I was suffocating, it smelled like the building was shut up for years on many mornings and my voice was hoarse all the time. At the end of my work day I was so tired I wanted to sleep, it was draining to drive home, my whole body felt like a weight and by the end of the day it actually hurt my mind to think. Many of the kindergarten children had constant runny noses every morning. We went through tissue boxes galore. I was told by a custodian there was mold all through the elevator shaft. The school was located in a watershed area. Seems the mold doesn't affect everyone so no one does anything about it. I left that school and work in a different school now. I don't feel like I did then. No hoarseness, chronic fatigue in the evening and yes, my doctor claimed my symptoms were depression. Some doctors so ignorant and uneducated. Side note-- A problems like gout I diagnosed with the help of the internet. And I had another doctor tell me I was stupid for not giving my daughter milk. A test I had to demand, to obtain a doctor order, to prove she was lactose intolerant. Just a few of several incidents I have had with doctors. No wonder they claim depression is widespread, seems that is what they tell many they must have rather than actually probe more to find out what is truly happening.
Thank you! I too worked in WDB schools all my life until I had to retire and go on disability. I’m still sick, but better. know these schools are filled with molds, toxins, and WiFi rays! I know several people who died who taught with me. It’s so awful to think about my granddaughter growing up in these places.
I'm glad your ok now but why didn't you report it to the proper authorities. Since it considered a hazardous contaminate and detrimental to the health of all those breathing the air in that school.
um maybe inform the parents of the students?
When the doctor cannot diagnose and you keep complaining they dont want to look unintelligent so they resort to...its all in your head and send you to psyc. dr who will prescribe psyc meds for you.
I've had multiple doctors tell me "it's all in your head"
1 even recommended I go talk to a therapist.. it was not in my head.
Thanks Dr A.. I have lived in apartment were, if it rains for 2 or 3 days, On the floors, the water would show up. I have all the symptoms that you named... I am so grateful for the work that you are doing......
I was always sick, anxiety and went to the doctor all they did was treat me for anxiety. This easter Sunday i decided to treat out my drywall, black mold all inside my bathroom walls.
When a docter says “ it’s all in ur head” maybe they mean there’s mold in ur head 😂😂
LOL
I really would prefer that interpretation!😆😜
My husband had a blood test. He has terrible chronic fatigue, brain fog ,depression ,headaches, congestion, memory loss off balance. Years its been going on. Many Drs over the yrs never found anything. I asked our Dr run mold test please. My husbands test came back black mold, stuckybatras and another type I don't recall. 5.46 was his score. Over 1 yr ago. Nothing has been done to help him. He still living in it. I haven't lived there for yrs. Our Shepard even has it on his coat of fur. I break out from petting him. What do we do?
@@deborahsamonek9980 It’s not that hard , but takes a bit of knowledge
Basic detox will suffice as well
Mold / fungus is everywhere , it’s only bad if it reaches 20% and or if. smell is there ,,,,
5% NP. Not a lot of money needed either
Power of suggestion that’s it’s dangerous is true if it’s an overwhelming situation
It’s a cash grab for people in that industry who collect checks from uneducated / unenlightened people
@@deborahsamonek9980 you need to see a functional medicine doctor to detox the body from the mycotoxins. I also have the exact same illness. You need supplements, binders, change your diet completely, ozone therapy, infrared saunas, etc.
The doctors used to tell me all the time I was being crazy, "its all in your head." I lived in an apartment for 8 years, not knowing that was the source cause to all my E.R visits I had, I lost my gallbladder and had a long list of health issues, while I lived there, were connected to black mold.. Also during the duration of living there, I was pregnant with my youngest son while living there... It was after I moved from there, i made this connection. I haven't lived there in 6 years, but all the symptoms you said, I have. Plus more sensitivities I have,
I can't have any sulfate, sulphate, sulfites of any form, I have become allergic to eggs, dairy and my favorite fruit pineapple.
But anyhow, I have been researching on my own and have tried many things, but due to how sensitive my system is to many things, what things I have tried that were supposed to be gentle were extremely harsh..
Thank you for all this info, I am so happy to know this and making better connections about my brain fog.
M Palmer doctors just memorise pharmaceutical drug symptoms
Yeah, I have experienced that a whole bunch.
Thank you for the information! It’s great!
Awesome advice and knowledge
This video was God sent. Thanks Dr. Axe!!!
thank you for the explanation, you are saving my life
Susana De Castro Santos I agree. I just ordered bentonite clay and activated charcoal last night from Amazon. The other "staple" I need to have in my armoury is Bone Broth.
I’m dealing with phase 2-3 mold exposure. Repeated doctors visits for 4 months I pass every test thrown at me. I just discovered I was suffering from toxic mold exposure. Your video has helped me soo so much. I am starting the bone broth, herbal tea and green juice immediately and I have ordered the bentonite clay. If only I had come across your video sooner I would have suffered much less as my symptoms have been severe. Thank you!!
I’m going through this right now also! Look up on TH-cam “Nutrition with Judy” “Dr. Shoemaker Protocol “ for “CIRS” Chronic Inflammation Response Syndrome. When I found Judy’s videos and information, everything started to make sense!!!
Wish you lots of healing ❤️🩹

How is going so far? I was exposed to mold for 2-3months in my house and i have the symptoms fatigue, shaky legs, light sensitivity, sinus infection and many more. Did you guys recovered with these remedies?
How did you tested
@@Izotopas how are you doing
Wow, you are so helpful . Bless you 🙏🙏🙏🙏 will try this out.... we have been out of the moldy house for a few months, but still dealing with health symptoms...
.
I have had these symptoms for years. Was diagnosed with Ataxia. I’m going to try this cleanse
Definitely going to scrub down my bathroom!
I'm going to tell my daughter down in CA about the tea tree oil for her bathroom. Her ex use to use bleach on it. I sometimes think since my house was winterized a few years ago I might also be having a problem in my own home. I've just been noticing some things I hadn't had before. I'm going to check out Amazon....

drywall grows mold ,,keep dry,
old school plaster walls actually killed mold
Make sure to wear clothes that covers your whole body and that you don't mind throwing away. Wear goggles, and gloves. Believe it or not apple cider vinegar and hydrogen peroxide mixed together in a spray bottle do wonders, spray on mold let it soak then spray again and with a rag clean. Than throw away all items used in a separate bag, tied & throw away. Keep pets and children away while doing this and cover all furniture as the spores will spread if not done correctly contaminating other areas of your home.
Gargling with oregano oil gets rid of my sore throats within a day or 2. When I dont do the oregano oil I could have a sore throat for 2 weeks. Definitely worth the momentary nasty flavor and hot feeling in your mouth.
What do you mix it with? A couple drops on water?
Always ahead of the curve.
Ty. I was very pleased with you mentioning the Bible as well.
yes!!! this video is everything I've been looking for...the past 6 months I've had all of these symptoms. Major Major brain fog..vertigo..aches and pains..headaches..chest pains and caught..chronic sinusitis. I've even been to a sinus clinic as well as a migraine clinic!! This is God sent. I will try all of this out and I'm even moving and purging Everything, I will write an update as to how I am doing.
MelodyandFamily
Omg I didn’t know vertigo was a symptom
That explains my dizziness, I thought it was another sinus infection
I also get dizzy when I walk when I’m sitting down when I’m lying down I feel like I’m on a rocking boat
how are you feeling now?
How are you today?
Additional symptoms - Heart palpitations, extreme dehydration, Wifi sensitivity, Also, because mold is highly dehydrating in the body, you might not want to disturb your water balance by ingesting baking soda, caffeine and such
Yes. I started having heart palpitations. 😔 why not ingest baking soda?
major heart palpations yes and wifi I cannot even use a cell phone or cordless
@@rubyday2496 will upset the water balance and electrolytes
@@romest8752 what ingesting the baking soda?
@@escapematrixenterprisejacq7810 WiFi sensitivity is?
Thanks learned much. Will start treatment today.
Great information...Thank you Dr. Axe.
I've been dealing with rashes, headaches, earaches, muscle pain, hand and foot pain, tickle cough that comes and goes as well as brain fog and just noticed black mold in the bathroom last night. They have tested me for all kinds of things prior to this in the last three to four months at Shands and act like nothing is wrong with me and I feel like I am dying.
Very well explained, very informative, yes it's good to still follow and used ancient medicines. Thank you for the reminders.
I’m glad you made this video
I’m going to try that cleanse for a week. Thank you so much!!
How did your cleanse go? Are you feeling any better?
I had mold toxicity that nearly killed me. Five different molds colonized in my bloodstream/body.
Found a functional medicine doctor who helped me. I am still sensitive to mold and have to use natural remedies periodically. I have used many of the herbal supplements that You mention.
Great video! Thank you for sharing this information.
What did he recommend for it? And how was it diagnosed?
How long did it take to detox fully
