Good Health Starts in Your Home
Mold and Your Health
• Indoor moisture
• Humidity above 50%
• Mold spores travel -- especially after being treated with bleach
• Mold hides inside air vents and walls, especially in bathrooms with vinyl wallpaper
Molds produce mycotoxins:
• Potent toxic chemicals
• Can trigger everything from asthma to cancer
• Makes Lyme & any autoimmune disease worse
Molds also produce xenoestrogens —
• Act like estrogen, but up to 1000x more potent.
• Can disrupt hormone levels and cause serious problems, like weight gain and decreased fertility.
