How I recovered from mold exposure! 

I’m so tired of going to a million doctors. I’m literally dying in front of everyone and nobody can help

3:53 Binder for detox (Dutch Test) 5:42 Replenish nutrients 6:26 Protein sufficiency ❤ Thank you ❤ Sept 2018, I moved out of an extremely mold-rich house, and into an 18 year old, seemingly clean building and started detoxing with bentonite clay, charcoal and a triple-biotic from Gundry, under the guidance of a wellness coach. After a few months, I was feeling like it would actually take us years to completely detox, and I learned we needed to integrate more gracefully back into full health. So we have just been doing our best to eat well, exercise, sleep well, all the best life practices. Now, almost 6 years later, our building is starting to show its age (molding in the grout and behind electrical plates) I’m feeling the rash/swelling/sinus symptoms of mold exposure (as well as the shared symptoms of…) and I’m experiencing early signs or perimenopause at the same time. I think. Maybe. (brain fog -like dumb sometimes, random depressive thoughts, and hair thinning). I don’t have any questions, because it’s like turning on a fountain, one question turns into a paragraph of questions. I hope that you’ll share any thoughts this stirred up for you. Thank you. I’m looking into the Dutch test this afternoon. ❤ Thank you.

I’m taking NAC and its helping a-lot! Starting on binders next week. Nervous system is way out of wack! Wim Hof breathing has helped me a lot! Also Vit D3k2 and b12! I used the great plaines mycotoxin urine test and wow off the charts toxicity! Four years with mystery symptoms! Stupid mold.

Everyone, please get air purifiers asap. To help you at least be able to function somewhat while you work on the underlying issues. You can also rent mold foggers and air scrubbers from Home Depot or Lowe’s.

Thank you! I have a relative that is struggling with mold and attempting detox and this video will be much appreciated since the conventional medical profession is pretty much worthless and totally ignorant and ineffective when it comes to mold and basically everything of this nature.

I’m just now finding this info may be what I’ve been dealing with my whole life!!!

Hi Dr Beth, Up till this summer I was a basically healthy post menopausal woman with celiac, IBS reactions to foods, MTHFR, multiple chemical sensitives and tremor. They call it “benign essential “ (notice the programming by saying it’s “essential” ) I was doing better off gluten and drank chlorella and charcoal if I was near fumes. This past year I started to have memory glitches for words I knew I knew! I thought age, but no, younger than me complain of the same. I have had severe brain fogs for years but never knew that’s what it was and recently discovered I’m histamine intolerant. So, I went keto carnivore and definitely IBS better. DAO supplements don’t help, but am still reactive to foods. I’m SUPER sensitive so I don’t take risks on taking pharma products. I have been taking supplements up the wazoo for years and never felt any different. My ah ha moment came a few months ago. I had been sleeping on a comfort select bed for over 20 years and felt so drugged on waking. (It’s basically an air mattress covered with foam.) I didn’t want to get a mattress because I always reacted to the outgassing of it. For years my feet were red when I stood up from bed and no doc seemed to be concerned. Then I learned that mold could be the issue. And lo and behold I learned the comfort select design of the one they sold me had a design flaw that allowed mold! Histamine, mold, redness Omg Mold! I ripped the bed apart and I found the tubing. Its filled with mold! In the past years I became very EMF sensitive and now in addition discovered I’m electrosensitive. I thought it was just a sensitivity to live with. But I recently heard a doc talk about chronic inflammatory response syndrome (CIRS) and he said a “tip off to mold toxicity is EMF and electro sensitivity and that in histamine reactions that aren’t helped with carnivore and DAO you should suspect mold. 🧐😳Omg that’s me! Everyone is going on parasite cleanses which is great but I think toxins need to be cleared first AND with the spraying of chemtrails and mercury fillings and, and, and… we ALL have heavy metals and we need to clear them too! So, I’m thinking WHERE TO START FIRST??🤷‍♀️🤷‍♀️I’m having a live blood analysis this week and then I’m a bit lost as to where to next. And my husband now has Parkinson and I just learned mold toxins can destroy dopamine production. He’s got my profile but has PD and irritable bladder and doesn’t have celiac or the EMF and electro sensitivity. Help, what step first?🤷‍♀️ Both doing live blood this week. Heavy metals- chelate? Mold -detox,? Mold-test the tubes? Histamine intolerance -diet supplements? parasites -cleanse? And docs don’t agree on the usefulness of mycotoxin testing so can we do detox that’s general for mold or is there a binder for specific mold toxins? HELP!!! 😳😳

He's the best route. 1. Carnivour diet 2. Leave the exposure site 3. Cholestyramine/welchol for 3 to 6 months respectively 4. High dose fish oil while on binders mentioned above to dampen detox reactions 5. Treat marcons if you have them with EDTA/BEG spray 6. Start VIP spray treatment.

I was healthy and all of a sudden I became really exhausted, had shortness of breath, my face became orange and red in colour, no matter how much I slept or exercised it got worse and worse and I began to look like somebody who was extremely sleep deprived. It got to the point where I started getting strange looks from people in public. Had all the mold removed from my house yesterday. Today was better than yesterday but I look normal again. I drink 4 litres of water a day, I eat a healthy diet and I exercise and have done always. Dont drink, dont smoke or do drugs. But look dead because of mold.

Thank you for going into this in depth and the importance of negative effects of detoxing and how to avoid this. So important, I also made the mistake of going straight into detoxing when I wasn’t eating properly and already feeling really bad which made me anaemic.

Ive been sick for over a year now! I found out I had BLACK MOLD growing two feet from where I slept for months! No dr can figure out what’s wrong with me. I came across a video of someone talking about CIRS and mold sickness. Almost every symptom matches what I’m dealing with. I think I finally have an answer however how do I about finding a doctor for this? Thank you for your info this was so incredibly helpful

I'm 19 and grew up in different types of mold for 18 years, and it never occurred to me to talk to my doctor about that since I moved out almost a year ago

After years of doctors and supplements, the thing that helped me the most was doing the Carnivore diet.

For me the mold toxicity may be one of the triggers for autoimmune response that I have going on. I found out I have 4 types of mold mycotoxins. More tests are being done for other things. I have already been eating extremely healthy because of the autoimmune issues - loads of vegetables, good protein, supplements, berries, coconut milk. No dairy, no grains (for now), no sugar or sweeteners at all. So when I started drinking herbal teas to help detox and doing some bone broth, I can tell a difference. I'm going slow and waiting for more test results before I do too much.

Hi Beth, yep, with you on all of this. I am B+ blood and told my system is not detoxing mould. Celtic and Scandinavian people allegedly we have the biggest issues clearing it.

I live in Florida. I think I have mold toxicity. My health has been going downhill for about 2 years now. Maybe longer but I've noticed it in the last two years. At first I thought it was just getting older and maybe menopause but I'm sick all the time. Lately it's been affecting my legs and my arms like a intense fibromyalgia. I thought it was MS. I have general malaise every single day. And it's hard to have energy. Please tell me what I need to do.

This is a great video. Finally somebody who skips the bs

My apartment was leaking from bad pipes for months. Keep telling the manager so maintenance could address the issue. Mold growing on ceiling and walls and I’m constantly fighting mold. Sucks I need to get outta of here but the price of living keeps me here.

I’ve been dealing with all of that from a teenager I was in such a moldy apartment that got condemned and burned down. It literally had a grassy stem grow on my roof . Later got to a house with a moldy closet.

Hello. What’s the gene test? I’m homozygous for an MTHFR mutation but I’m not sure what the test is for detoxing mold. I’m certain I have this problem too. I’m in a living hell . A shit storm of severe symptoms and most of the world has no idea that it’s very real. Thanks for your video. ❤

Can mold cause permanent brain damage for children who grow up in it? My 11 year old has a learning disability and struggles with memory so much. I’m distraught now finding out about our hidden mold problem and wondering if it could have attributed to this.

Thank you so much for posting this video.

I spoke to a doctor today and she asked if i was exposed to mold, yes over and over. What are the binders do i need? I need more explaination. I fit all explaination.

Dr. Westie thank you for putting important information out there for people who are battling mold. I have been detoxing for 2 months now and I’m losing my hair in large amounts and it is extremely dry like straw. Help!

Is MTHFR polymorphism one of the generic differences that cause people to be unable to detox themselves?

I am hoping you'll reply as to what you might recommend for men with Mold Exposure. I am spaced out big time and wish I could think clearly. Anything for us guys?

You could also learn to down regulate. You are in your sympathetic nervous system. Mouth breathing, drama, over excited. This can be changed and then you will digest and detox better. You will see immune function improvement.

What is the actual damage done in the body? How do you, how long dies it take, and what do you take to heal your body after the toxin is fully removed. Everyone does videos about the detoxing oart but not the rest. I feel like crying right now. 😢😢😢

Mine was so bad, there's no building that I can sleep in anymore without having extreme symptoms, I don't know what to do and it's hard to find hope. Even now my skin is burning like crazy. It's seems I can't be okay anywhere now it's ruined my life for a long time. In 2016 I was so severely sick I spent 10 days in the hospital and I haven't been okay since. I need to be okay in a place to live so I can gwt some traction Right now in transitional housing and I have no way to help myself

Hello! Thank you so much for your post. I had a heavy mold exposure for about a year. Finally figured it out with no help from the doctors. Treated the house and sold it. But I’m still living with the consequences and like I said, the doctors are not help. They act like I’m crazy. I got incredibly sick. A couple months after I moved most of the things resolved themselves but anytime I get around it at all the problems come back and I have to take a heavy dose of a certain type of B1 or within three days I’m having debilitating symptoms again. I am on Medicare and disability and I’m willing to do all the work but can’t find anyone to help. Do you have any advice?

I don't know how people can recover from mold mycotoxins. I have multiple different mold mycotoxins. I was diagnosed with it and a tick disease 1 and a half yrs ago and I'm still sick with bad symptoms. How do people get better. I'm about to give up. I have some things here to treat but am so frustrated that I don't want to touch any of it. I was diagnosed with these illnesses by a holistic dr because this stupid conv medical system has done absolutely nothing.

This applies to even if you go the pharmacutical route. I was going down that road and my body was not ready...you really need to be top notch shape.

I'm suffering from extreme weight loss, I'm having bouts of fainting and my doctors have been literally laughing at me for saying it's mould exposure

Hi, I just found your video and I clicked on the link for the Dutch test, however I was expecting the video to explain how taking this test will help you decide which binder to take, however the video doesn't even talk about mold. Did I misunderstand?

Today I found an incredible amount of mold under a plant that was sitting on a plant stand. I have been dealing with throat tightness and swallowing, breathing issues for a long time. I have had a ton of testing all come back normal. Is it possible it’s due to mold exposure? It was right next to my head, literally breathing it in for years.

is it always significant if at least one or two mycotoxins are present in the urine, even if they at moderately high levels?

I need help. My hair started falling out and then followed fatigue vomiting and diarrhea. Kittens grew into cats with abdominal distention and skin issues. Son has skin issues and sleep issues. I can see the water damage and mold. Can smell it. Can’t move. Lost my job. We will be homeless because of this.

Most generic variations don't kill your liver. Maybe epigenetic, and not saying it can't affect it, but if you aren't dead, you're liver is functioning too some degree. Of course modern society stress and alcohol can reduce liver function, but otherwise the liver can't cease to function (that's called jaundice)

Dr Beth, thank you SO MUCH for this video! What kind of protein do you recommend? Whey protein powder? Pea protein powder? Or specific amino acid supplementation? I try to eat as much meat/eggs/fish but I don't think I'm getting enough through the diet.

I am having neurological issues. Neurologist "thinks" its PLS but "not certain". I did a mycotoxin test and was almost 100% with fungal mold. Went to naturopath and he prescribed chlorophyl and yeast/fungal detox herbs with liver castor oil packs. Apparently, I was not moving any nutrients to my brain and possibly this caused me to be physically "off balance", disequilibreated. I have been doing this for 6 weeks with not very much improvement. I am also taking a binder. So what nutrients besides protein should I be eating? I don't want the binder to have a negative effgect.

I understand binders now. Thanks so much. I would like to see if I can get this Dutch Test done for a good friend of mine.

Iam trying to recover from mold after being exposed for 5 yrs and the landlord knew because he never wanted me to call a professional I kept getting so sick gaining weight losing weight hair loss depression anxiety mold rage I drove my family crazy because they didn’t know what’s wrong mold wreeked havoc on my entire body and drs are no help because they say it’s just allergies I don’t know what else to do I developed so many infections and had sepsis and almost died now my immune system is so weak I get sick very fast 😢

Recommended treatments, please? I have also paid for the expensive testing, both for myself and my home. I’ve been a valuated at the local Alzheimer’s clinic. My neurologist says there is no research, no proof, nothing that validates mold toxicity. It’s in my blood. It’s in my urine. It’s affecting my cognition, my career is at risk. Can anyone point me in the direction of treatments?

My issue with all the mold channels is Iv found absolutely no one that says how low the spore can should be for air . I know Ermi should be low but no one gives help with the air . Mold guys don’t really come to a house of air counts are considered low, they won’t come and clean anything get rid of the dust for you. Why can’t anyone give a real answer? There’s an insinuation air tests are not good enough but as some have told me, it’s hard to argue against them, if it’s not in the air , then it isn’t coming in contact with you anyways. Kind of hard to deny that logic. I don’t need to know how to detox yet I need to know numbers

I don’t think my first comment went through....I have high ochratoxin and klebsiella... I am taking glutathione, gi detox, Berberin, colloidal silver in nose..I have been so sick. I can’t eat much and loosing a lot of weight. The heart rate being so high is my worst symptoms. I feel dehydrated constantly even tho I’m drinking mineral water. Idk what to do. My energy is gone, post nasal drip, shortness of breath...I’m 11 days into detox. Also can’t eat oxalates sal and histamine foods. My Period is now all over the place as well. Is it worse before it gets better?

How do I get the Dutch test done? I’m already constipated and worried about binders making things worse. I’ve been sick my whole life and I just keep getting worse and no one wants to help me. I also have Lyme and don’t know how much is Lyme, herxheimer reaction, detoxing trouble, etc. I have mthfr c677t with intermediate COMT. Any direction you can send me would be appreciated . May 12, 2024

I need to get genetic testing..... I’m day 11 of detox and feel awful. Heart rate has been high. I’m taking go detox, Berber one and glutathione and colloidal silver in my nose...it’s been hell! I’m always dehydrated and drinking a ton. i have high ochrstoxin a and Klebsiella. I always now can’t eat histamines oxalates and salycalate. I. Basically only eating protein. I have lost 25 lb in 2 months

So honest, and clearly spelled out! Thank you I am looking for the right doctor, I hired a health coach, a few days ago, since I can't trust my fogging thinking. She is tending to the details of my nutrients to be built up and we are both looking for an MD in Utah for the detox to do medicine and or (binders) locally.... Thank You, I am, Sick of being Sick! Bless you, I subscribed

My 21 yr old daughter has been extremely sick from mold. The new place she’s renting also has mold in the register for the A/C. Drs keep treating everything with antibiotics & other times they just ignore it saying it’s a viral thing. What binders do you take? What can I do for her that really can help? I worry so much about her. She was just recently told by ER dr that her lungs don’t look the way it should for a 21 yr old. She doesn’t smoke either. It’s very very scary. All your info can help. How do we get a Dutch test? By a regular dr??

I am at the point where I feel I'm going to die, loss tone of weight, sugar crave, thiroid down, adrenal fatigue, anemia, amenhorrea, hair loss, bruning and joint pain, itching, yeast overgrowth, constipation. I have started antifungals, and I feel that i'm getting worse. I am eating a lot of protein but I feel that my body just does not take it because he is as so much to detoxify for!!!! What do you mean by Binders? I also just discovered that my place is full of mold! Wearing a mask and air purifier until I can move to a new place asap!! Getting lost, and scared...

Was told shoemaker protocol is the only thing that works and until you do the protocol nothing will work

WHAT ARE THE BINDERS PLEASE?

QUESTION: my daughter was exposed to mold in an old house we bought 3 years ago. Pulmonologist said her histoplasmosis titers are high and that's what's wrong. Can histo cause CIRS?!? She's positive for mycotoxins. Just not sure if it could be two separate molds.

I want to detox from mold. I have left my moldy apartment. I’m a man so what test should I take?

What are binders, and please don’t talk so fast‼️

Does mold toxicity seem to effect women more then men? I have found mold in two rooms of my house. My daughters and i frequently feel sick with gut issues and cycle problems. But my son and husband seem to be fine. Our quality of life is effected not sure the next step and can't spend a fortune on it :(

What if you are on meds for illness. Wouldn't binders pull them out too.

I developed hemorrhoids and after 1 month they started itching like crazy, i am taking anti allergic tablet once a day everyday now...i also noticed that the periods are early each month now. I get fissure and hemorrhoids every now and then even though i am always hydrated and eat enough fibre. I have a mould in my house , could it be the culprit ?

You forgot breathing issues soar throat joint pain. .many more

I am on opti fiber lean. I am doing one sprinkle twice a week. I was ok for the first 3ish weeks. Now this week I have had 3 massive adrenaline dumps making me violently ill. I have been bed bound for 3 years with POTS and dysautonomia. How can I get the dumps to stop please.

I know there's visible mold in my house and I have tested the mold in between the walls. Housing nor code is helpful to me. I cannot find an attorney and now I'm being forced Even to MOVE And I want to, but I'm sick as hell no money for U-Haul or down payment on apartment so I'm going homeless. I have been researching for almost a year now for someway for some authority to take a hold of this and I've got so much brain fog because I'm still going through menopause and this I am lost and alone I need serious help. As my business is under the same roof and now I'm being told everything is contaminated and I....

Im scared to take another binder. After 1 month, I lost part of my molar while biting into a soft mango.

Currently losing my mind, I got exposed to bad toxic mold. Where do you propose I go

Do you live in Oregon?

Hello, is there a test for the gut to know what binders to take ?

What's a Dutch test please

Can it get worse before it gets better ? I literally just been on bioresonance treatment for aflatoxin and it took longer to harmonise than 2 weeks ago however a week ago i begun taking gluthiatone. I have moved home ane reduced exposure I don't understand.. please let me know what you think, losing hope of getting better

Hello and thank you for your information. Do you only work with females? I have CIRS and am trying to figure out what to do next .

Great video , have you heard of zeolite ?

Are nightmares associated with mold toxicity?

My mouth is a bit red like yours is. Only my dermatologist thinks it's mold but his topical creams don't work.

Your website is blocked by my security. Do you have a SSL cert.?

protein yes. good fats every bit as important

How can we test for mold? Thanks

Hi, what test showed you that your system does not detox the toxins?

I have aspergillus in my gut following a oats test, what can I do to help myself. I get such intestinal pains

What is the genetic variation which means you can have issues detoxing? I have MTHFR hetero and have done 23&me

Do you need to physically leave the mold before doing this?

Hi me and my family are going threw this ,how do I do the Dutch test ?it's me my wife and 2 kids that are still very sick 😢we have moved out of the house but been like 2 years and all suffer with mast cell now desperate to recover from this , especially to get my 2 small children better 😢 thanks 🙏

I have CIRS and still very high levels of mold shown in my bloodwork. I started activated charcoal (1/64 tsp/day) five days ago and I feel worse. Is this normal? I would ask my doctor but she never tells me what to expect and doesn't give much clarity.

can you also talk plz about metal toxicity? mold and yeast like this too

What kind of proteins do you mean ? Grass fed beef , plant protein?

I found out i had mold under my lamp on my bed side it was like 4 small n medium size mold circles on the fabric on the indoor of the lamp . It wasn’t direct contact to the table but it was inside the bottom part of the lamp . I had a viral lung infection that damn near took me out in September 2023 im now dealing with a “ sinus infection “ according to my doctor he told me this information before i discovered the mold. Now i think this js why i was sick and still am . Im currently finding it difficult to breathe especially through my nose its a struggle at night its draining. I want to cry sometimes because its frustrating i just got off antibiotics for the sinus infection and tbh i still feel the same what do you recommend i do ?

How does a hormones test result have anything to do with getting the right binder for mold? Especially for people who were healthy and had correct hormones test before mold exposure. Can you give examples for a man, where the hormone test result would make zeolite not a good binder for mold?

Hi!.. I've been struggling with breathing issues for a while now and a lot of construction in my lungs, I think it's mold. I am so ready to feel better and be able to breathe fully. Please help 🙏❤

I am suffering from black mold and cannot move out yet,I tried garlic and lost my sense of smell and body aches like the flu.

A few weeks ago I moved a few towels outside that once moved I saw a ton of darker mold. Immediately I had sinus headaches and then my asthma flared terribly. A week later still feeling the lung tightness. Went away for 3 days everything started to clear up. Came home feeling crummy again. And I’ve gained 7 pounds in 9 days! Is this a side effect? 1) can a one time exposure create all this havoc 2) we also had a flood about 14 months ago. I live in a dry area. They fixed it. But how can you tell if it’s behind your walls? Saw a dr and a lung X-ray nothing. I’m so frustrated. I feel awful. Tinnitus. Metallic taste in mouth. Brain fog. Weight gain. Where can I start? What binder? I’m so confused

I just found out we have an incredible amount of mold growing out of my room mates bathroom roof wall... That explains why I started feeling anxious again after beating it a year and a half ago and now that I think abiut it he had a mold problem then as well... Fuck I should of stayed in Cali. Anyways where can I find information about detoxing and other things because I'm honestly tired of feeling weak, out of energy, depressed, anxious to hell and back. You name it.

Are these tests also for men?

You rock Dr. Beth. How do you get your levels? Do you have to make a doctor appointment? I'm finding most insurance does not cover mold toxicity.

I’m assuming I can’t detox from mold while breastfeeding. Is that correct?

Is charcoal a binder? Any examples

What determines what type of binder is right for me?

Cycle doesn’t come often enough to take the Dutch test. What other tests for mold. You mentioned one test goes into how your body detoxes. Which test is that ?

I have had a viral eye infection for several months. Ali

What binders are you talking about?

what binder did you take

Thank you. You mentioned protein can you tell us how much protein?

Question! Can bad mold exposure make your face puffy? I have it REALLY bad. Horrible brain fog 24/7, but I noticed my face is really puffy too. You mentioned looking slimmer after detox, is that wha y u meant? Slimmer face?

Would really appreciate some advice been trying to get better for about 2 years spent so much money on supplements but nothing helps. Plus our mast cells are so bad we just react to everything just seems impossible to get my family better 😢
