Why Does Mold Make You Sick?


Why doesn’t mold affect everyone the same way? Why can it destroy one person’s health while causing no noticeable problems for someone else?

Well, about 75% of people can make antibodies to the mold toxins (mycotoxins) that help bind to the toxins so the body can remove them.

But the other 25% or people don’t have this ability, so they’re relying heavily on their liver and other systems of elimination like lymphatics, lungs, skin, kidneys, and GI Tract.

If these detoxification systems aren’t working properly because they’re literally poisoned with toxins and chemicals, then they can’t do their jobs. This means toxins of all types, including mold, continue to accumulate.

Once this vicious cycle begins it can be very hard to unwind it. We need these systems to be working to remove toxins, but when they’re overloaded and can’t work, more and more toxins will build up which keeps people trapped. And extremely sick!

This is also why so many chronically ill people feel worse when they try treatment, but I’ll cover that in another post!

If you’re dealing with mold, or any kind of chronic illness and you’re feeling stuck at a dead end, let’s get on a Discovery call together and see if we can get you some answers!

Chiropractic And Injury Prevention

As research performed in the last few decades has shown, Chiropractic is known to change & improve various aspects of nervous system function, including motor control, brain reaction times, and brain cognitive processing (the speed with which our brain processes information). So, it makes sense that if any of these areas are lacking then you should be at greater risk for injury, especially when we are talking low back injuries (due to how important brain control is over the vitally important spinal muscles). We know that if you can’t activate your trunk and core muscles before rapidly moving an arm, this can potentially result in a strain or sprain of the low back. This is known as the feed forward mechanism - if our spine doesn't first stabilize properly before we move our limbs then we greatly increase our risk of injury at the spinal level. These injuries usually start as microscopic injuries that we don't even notice but like everything else they continue to b...
