If you have ever seen mold growing inside your home, most of the time, there is a larger problem that you need to look into immediately.

All Things Mold with Bridgit Danner

Bridgit Danner is a licensed acupuncturist, certified Functional Diagnostic Nutrition Practitioner, and the founder of HormoneDetoxShop.com. After losing everything to toxic mold herself, Bridgit now educates about toxins and how to detoxify your body and home through a functional healthcare approach. She is my go-to expert when it comes to all things mold and is here today to share how your symptoms could be related to micro toxin exposure you might not even know about.

Could Mold Be Causing Your Hormone Symptoms?

Bridgit refers to toxic mold like a roommate that you don’t want to have. Toxic mold will continue to grow and emit mycotoxins until it is dealt with for good. While you can’t always see it, toxic mold can suppress your immune system, damage your cells, cause cancer and birth defects, impair mitochondrial function and the nervous system, and so much more.

The only way to recover from toxic mold exposure, whether it was recent or long in the past, is to detoxify. If you have been trying everything but still can’t shake your symptoms, mold could be to blame.

Daily Detoxification Is Key

Cleansing your home and your system of mycotoxins can take a while. This is why Bridgit recommends going step by step and focusing on the basics in order to detoxify your system. Even if you have not been exposed to toxic mold, the toxins we are all exposed to the daily call for consistent detoxifying habits to help you age well and relieve your symptoms.

Daily detoxification is the key to getting past some of your biggest symptoms. While diagnosing a mold-related illness is critical, there is so much that we can do on a daily basis to detoxify our bodies and feel safe in our homes.
