What we breathe, eat, drink, apply to our body, and are exposed to can all profoundly impact our wellness. Unfortunately, our world is full of chemicals from everyday life, hiding in our food, water, air, personal care products, and cleaning agents. These compounds can cause imbalances in physiology and lead to illness. Therefore, we must educate ourselves on what we can do to protect our health, since we cannot escape toxins.
Mold is an underappreciated, major source of symptoms and disease processes that is often missed as an environmental exposure in conventional care. It can go unrecognized for years as a main contributor to a lot of “mysterious” and “undiagnosed” symptoms. Recently, awareness of this sneaky environmental invader is gaining traction, as well as the appreciation for its complexity and how to treat it.
Thankfully, integrative health pioneers have been leading the way on how to personalize approaches to address mold-related illness. I have learned a great deal from them and from working with my clients who have been affected. As a result, I have written several articles, have been privileged to interview a few leaders on this subject on the Essential Oil Revolution podcast, and recently provided a video on the caveats of using binders and essential oils for mold exposure.
Still, there’s always more to the story.
So, in my latest clinical tip, I circle back to the topic of mold. Specifically, I highlight the use of essential oils intranasally for combating mold exposure and colonization. Colonization is when your body itself becomes the exposure!
Topics include:
- A review of the major takeaways on mold exposure up to this point.
- How our olfactory system is linked to our survival.
- How essential oils can protect and defend the body when breathing in mold spores and mycotoxins.
- Using essential oils intranasally for mold exposure and colonization.
- Some safety caveats for ensuring kidney health and managing detoxifying when addressing colonization.
- How probiotics can be an ally for gently removing toxins and mycotoxins.
