Toxic Mold Show

Posted in Blogroll at 18:20 by str8talk

The response to the show on toxic mold has been tremendous. One of the absolutes is that if you are chronically sick with something that the doctors cannot seem to diagnose you should look into the possibility of mold exposure. Click on the page to link to the three stages of illness associated with toxic mold exposure as taken from the Journal of Environmental Biology 23(3) 301-320 (2002), an article entitled “Clinical confirmation of trichothecene mycotoxicosis in patient urine”. I have not included the entire article but included the stages of illness.

Dr. William Croft was my guest and is a pathologist in Madison, Wisconsin. He is a world renown expert on toxic mold and the pathology of disease it causes. He mentioned that he has developed strips that you can lay down on the floor of your home or workplace for a short period of time and send to him for analysis. He will be able to tell if mold is present and what kind. He also mentioned he is able to do urinalysis as well as analyzing a white t-shirt that is worn. Airborne mold sticks to your clothing. You actually take it home with you!
