info_outlineThis year has been the wettest, most humid, and consequently the mouldiest EVERRRR on many parts of the east coast of Australia. Which means – the numbers of people with CIRS (Chronic Inflammatory Response Syndrome), MCAS (Mast Cell Activation Syndrome) and mould illness are growing at an alarming rate.
Meet Sandeep Gupta – a board certified general practice physician practicing on Australia’s Sunshine Coast (aka Mould Central right now!). He has a Fellowship and Masters degree in Nutritional & Environmental Medicine and five years experience of working in intensive care medicine. He runs a busy integrative medicine practice, Lotus Holistic Medicine, helping his patients to achieve optimal health and finding answers to complex medical problems.
He was the first non-US physician to complete the certification in biotoxin illness with Dr. Ritchie Shoemaker in 2014, and is now leading the way in Australia as THE go-to doctor for mould illness, CIRS and MCAS.
In this episode, we chat about:
- What are MCAS and CIRS.
- The different types of illnesses that can result from mould exposure.
- Pathology testing for mould and biotoxin related illness.
- Mould illness treatment protocols.
- Why looking at underlying emotional trauma is a MUST.
- What to do when clients are highly inflamed from mould exposure.
- How to find the right GP or practitioner to help you.
Dr Sandeep Gupta also has a course for those wanting to heal from mould illness. It’s an amazing resource, and the perfect place to start for anyone affected by mould exposure.
It’s called “Mold Illness Made Simple” (yep – it’s the US spelling of “mold”), and you can check it out via my affiliate link here:
