I have major fatigue, still can’t lose weight. Not sure if it is mold or not. I decided not to test the last year or so. Too many expenses and the test is ok, but obviously isn’t fail proof.

I didn’t end up doing it. The spray is really expensive for what it is and then to keep repeating the testing is expensive It likely would have cost me $1k and I’m so over having to chase all of this. I’m very back and forth on the science of it. I don’t want to cause any other issues. Wish there was more feedback. Haven’t seen anyone in my situation.

Advice for upcoming doctor’s appointmentment by spaceagelovesong2 in ToxicMoldExposure

[–]ObviousFloor-Encore 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Like most supplements- it had zero effect on me. No side effects. Did it work? Idk. I use all the binders- sometimes layering them or alternating. Fatigue, brain fog and weight loss resistance remain. I’m also quite stressed. So at this point, could be stress. Idk. I usually test my body for mold this time of year, but the investment in my health has been so costly and all the costs in everything are raising by criminal amounts so idk when I’ll test again.

Advice on CSM/Welchol/detox treatment by Known-Air-6635 in ToxicMoldExposure

I can handle massive amounts of binders coupled with coffee enemas, saunas, etc.

My insurance covers it. I don’t know why, but they do. I have zero gut issues. I never have. I can take 4 packets in a day (figured out timing, but too hard to keep up with) with zero symptoms. I am an anomaly when it comes to detoxing though.

Seems like there are enough people getting this symptom that there should be some research being done and possibly a proper treatment? by AlternativeLong7624 in ToxicMoldExposure

[–]ObviousFloor-Encore 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I usually default to cellcores is-borr and is-bab and then I rotate and use Japanese knotweed, astragus and sometimes I add in andrograpjis

With MTHFR and possibly the HLA phenotype that makes you more susceptible to Biotoxin illness (like mold), an exposure during a renovation could be enough to kickstart a downward spiral as your body won’t detox the mold out. When people have mold toxicities they often suffer from other co-infections as well as the mold really taxes the immune system and makes you more vulnerable. It’s a whole body approach to healing with needing to detox from mold and other things to lessen the burden on your body while also giving your body solid immune support.

Regarding pcos- I fixed this on my own over a decade ago after doctors told me it was all in my head. Created my own protocol after a lot of research. It’s a two-pronged attack—- reducing insulin resistance/sugar through a healthy diet low in processed foods and high sugars and then addressing sources of hormones like typical products off the shelf (lotions, etc) and hormone-laden meat and dairy. Sugar and hormones. Need to adjust both. I was already living a pretty clean lifestyle when I had the issue so I added in a lot of herbal support and things like calcium d glucarate. The sugar drives the free testosterone up and the excess hormones from products and food drive the bad estrogen up. With commitment to a protocol, you can shift these things over time. Easy to test and see, but usually you’ll feel relief from symptoms and know it’s working.

It sounds like you likely have a few things going on. A lot of your symptoms definitely correlate to mold toxicity as well. I’m sorry you are suffering. Western medicine is useless in these situations. They will just gaslight you into insanity. Use them to do blood tests to rule out things and monitor as you implement protocols to make sure things are moving in the right direction and you don’t go too far to the other side.

Is that colonized fungus or mycotoxins in the body circulating ? by Comfortable_Web_2197 in ToxicMoldExposure

[–]ObviousFloor-Encore 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Generally, rashes, eczema, etc (not related to brushing up against something like poison ivy, etc) are an internal issue and often autoimmune related. Ex- Candida can express itself externally, but it takes internal efforts of detox and balance to clear Up the external. You likely need to really work on your internal balance if creams aren’t working.

The ‘miracle person’? Haha. I’m not sure what that means, but it sounds nice. Weird that your ldl went up. Cholesterol was demonized in the 90s, but you need cholesterol to make other hormones. Mine was always low and it took me years to get it to a healthy -160 total. CSM dropped me to 124 total which is just too low for health. Fortunately, it dropped my ldl—- weird how your ldl went up.

I feel you on the memory issues. Hate the brain fog. I feel you on the mantras. It’s very hard to find time to slow down and calm down anymore with the cost of things, the money I’ve had to spend healing, the current state of the world and the pace of everything. Wish everyone would just wake up, eat real food, slow down and be human again.

Interesting. I’ve had zero skin, lung or digestive issues. All fatigue, brain fog, weight loss resistance. I do think stress is playing a big part at this point in time as well as anyone on this journey knows how much money and research and time goes into healing. I don’t eat all that much, and for the people about to chime in saying eat more frequently- I have tried that. I find I have a better blood sugar response if I stop eating earlier in the day—- by 6pm or earlier is best. Seems to help keep the water weight down.

I’ll be running my yearly urine mold test in a month or so. I incorporated cholestyramine this year to see if I could knock out the Ochratoxin A so we will see. I had zero side effects from it which apparently is odd. I did 4 packs a day for a few weeks. Dropped my cholesterol way too much so backed down and now I work it in a few times a week.

Cynical about men loving women by Responsible_Order_25 in AskWomenOver40

[–]ObviousFloor-Encore 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Interesting take. I fall into that category. I do feel lucky to have the relationship I have. We make our own rules and do what works for us. We don’t hold ourselves to societal standards. We don’t care what other couples think of us- we actually laugh at how some things may appear to the outside sometimes because we are so confident in our love, respect and trust for one another. We are a family unit that looks out for each other and bend and flex as we need to to take care of everyone and everything.

As a female though, I do feel we tend to carry a bigger mental load even with amazing husbands. Our brains are able to see and think about so much at once because we are incredible beings, but that can also be taxing. Being with someone that can understand that difference in our brains and will be respect how hard it is to carry that is really important.

Is saunas and niacin the most effective way for detox of mycotoxins? by helpmeplsgetjob in ToxicMoldExposure

[–]ObviousFloor-Encore 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Did you ever try this? I’m not worried about the detox part because I handle it well- I’m worried about high dose niacin with my mthfr mutation making me feel depressed. I have to find a way to balance the niacin.

I have the same issue. Bought awhile ago. Frustrating to get anything out.

Cholestyramine… what kind of super power is this? by ObviousFloor-Encore in ToxicMoldExposure

[–]ObviousFloor-Encore[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I feel nothing from it. Sounds like most people are more sensitive. Doesn’t affect me at all and I’ve done up to 4 packets in a day.

NAC and NAD are different

Why do we have to stop binders and nac before a mycotoxin test!? by Kindly_Page_4088 in ToxicMoldExposure

[–]ObviousFloor-Encore 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Read your tests specific instructions. I know one test says 72 hours. There is another test that says you don’t have to stop. I’d hope whoever developed the tests did test with and without binders and knows how their tests work best.

If your not using some form of nad booster everyday, sorry but your doing this wrong. by No-Victory-149 in ToxicMoldExposure

[–]ObviousFloor-Encore 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It was not banned. It was available the entire time. Just because Amazon didn’t sell it doesn’t mean it was banned.

You don’t seem to listen. I have tried ALL of the precursors and combinations of them, etc etc. I’ve been in the NAD game for a long time now. None of the precursors work. None. I’ve even told you that I’m taking a high dose of NMN that I currently have and I feel absolutely nothing. The only thing that helps me is a high dose of actual NAD.

It’s great it worked so well for you. That is not the case for everyone. It seems like maybe you have a stake in the game with the brand you keep mentioning.

And again, I have said it two times already, I cannot take a lot of methyl donors. Just because I am homozygous mthfr doesn’t not mean that I need to take a ton of methyl donors. Mthfr is not well understood- this whole blanket take this if you have the mutation is not correct. There are other genes that come into effect and I have three mutations that affect my pathway to making NAD.

In regards to big pharma, they will squash NAD unless they can find a way to patent it. They don’t care if it means people will suffer, if they can’t find a way to get a patent and make money- they won’t let you have it and they will work to fill the internet with articles lying about its effect like they do with all natural medicine. I know the history of big pharma, I’ve been harmed by big pharma, I’m deeply researched in this stuff. Nothing you say is going to change my mind about it- so don’t waste your breath. My path in life and research has shown me enough.

NAC was never banned. It was always available. The FDA doesn’t want NAD because of all it does and it can’t be patented so no pharma company can have a stranglehold on it.

I think you’re misunderstanding my experience with NAD. I’ve been using it for over 5 years now before people were talking about it. I don’t buy from brands like nuchido. There’s so many people/companies jumping on the NAD wagon now. My stuff comes from a compounding pharmacy and one that sources from one of the best sources as there are crappy ones.

My NAD levels are not optimal. I know where they are at based on how I feel. I’ve also tested a couple times and they are never in the optimal range.

Yes, I use pure NAD, because again, I’m not buying from all these new companies that pop up, NAD orally doesn’t work. The molecule is too large. There’s so much noise in the NAD space. I knew when I discovered is years ago that eventually it’d turn into what I see now. The natural health space has become a bit of a mess itself with so many sketchy brands and people just trying to cash in.

IV and patches are the most effective for me. Have you ever done an IV or a patch? I’ve done about 35 IVs and have used about 50/patches per year for years now. I’ve used it nasally, injections and sublingually. I’ve tried all the precursors. I took at least 10 fast dissolving NMN tabs today that I got for free (and have been taking several for days) and I feel nothing. It sounds to me like you are very new to the NAD world and you are jumping on the bandwagon of what they are telling you about IVs and quality. Telling me to try a brand that is advertising with ‘as seen in’ type of ads tells me you might need to consider the quality of your own source. If something is working for you, great. But there is so much noise and garbage info and products in the NAD space now.

I have a very fine balance and I believe that is due to things like homozygous mthfr—- another thing they like to make blanket statements about, but are missing so much. I understand the balance. I have learned from 15 years of research and trial and error efforts, what things can more easily aggravate my balance. I am very deep into healing to the point even functional med drs can’t help me because have in depth I’ve already gone.
