    On a separate note, can candida cause mould. I’m expecting the OATS test result on March 19th.

     think of mold and candida as being cousins. They both fall under the fungi family of organisms. Mold creates competition with other fungal species so we often see them together in mold illness. In my mold course releasing next week, I discuss the indicators that can point to mold exposure on the OAT test.

     if you recall, I mentioned this to you already and I’m glad you heard it from Dr. Jill as well. Zeros across the board on a MycoTox test is more likely that you’re not excreting mycotoxins. Once you open up detox pathways (we know your biliary tract is congested and should be prioritized), get bile moving, start having regular bowel movements 2 x per day, and sweat more, you might get very different results. And instead of spending your money on this expensive test again at this stage, I would run after the mold inspectors and get your home checked.

     Yes absolutely. I just uploaded it as it was fresh after the call. I should have been more clear the reason for uploading it.

    D-lemonine is not an option due to low dosage not available or it’s too high. What should I try as the next safer option.

     oh I see. I didn’t realise mould is also a fungi.

     I would give the 1000mg a shot or wait until Swanson is back in stock. Integrative Therapeutics make them in packs of 10.

    Hi B.

    I’ve come across this company whilst I’m still chasing Action Dry.

    Which one of these surveys should I consider. ERMI for sure.

    Are these the prices I should expect?[53C8C17C-3CAE-4278-B5E9-6CB8A9501261.jpeg]

     you’ll want a thorough visual inspection with moisture readings all over the house, an air sample (which includes both indoor and an outdoor sample for comparison), surface sampling (if there’s anything visible), and ERMI testing.

    There is also this company. 

    Is the qpcr test which they say an ERMI TEST.

    I notice these companies also do remediation. Is this not OK as you mention it’s best to have the work done by somebody else.

    correct – in the US it is illegal in many states to have the inspector also do the remediation work. It’s a clear conflict of interest. But as I said, sometimes that option is not available and we have to do the best with what we’ve got. If you contact some of the organisations like the IICRC – they provide a list of UK inspectors and remediators .

    This company uses dry fog technology. I’ll stay a way from them as you mentioned in the video, this technology doesn’t kill the mould

     fogging is not bad – it’s a tool that can be used to neutralize mold and bring it to the ground to be vacuumed and removed. But correct, it doesn’t kill mold.
