Why Mold Toxicity Affects Hormonal Balance More Than You Think

 

What Mold Exposure Can Do?

  • Fungus that grows on walls, food, flooring, etc.
  • Beauty products, Botox, and lifestyle toxins contribute to a decreased immune system.
  • Disrupts mitochondria, elevates cortisol, blocks melatonin.
  • May cause exercise intolerance due to “backpack of toxins”.

 

Symptoms of Mold Toxicity

  • Chronic fatigue, weight gain, anxiety, GI issues, hormone imbalances
  • Can trigger inflammation, autoimmune responses
  • Mold symptoms are often mistaken for menopause

 

Dr. Moore’s Detox Roadmap

  1. Replenish nutrients (glutathione, potassium, sodium, B12)
  2. Open drainage (lymph, liver, bowels)
    • Safe place - remove environmental toxins (air, food, water, hygiene products, dental and implants)
    • Nervous system - address stress and trauma (therapy)
  3. Start detox using antimicrobials + binders (e.g., carboxy, pectasol)

How long will it take?

    • Mold detox alone: typically 3–4 months
    • More complex cases: can take years
    • Depends on sensitivity and co-infections

 

Biohacking Tools That Work

  • Infrared Sauna (160°F+)
  • Red Light Therapy
  • Lymphatic Drainage
  • Castor Oil packs, dry brushing
  • More advanced: Ozone Blood Filtering (EBOO), Pulsed Electromagnetic Field therapy (PEMF), Neural Therapy 
  • Most aren't required, but they speed up recovery
