PLEASE READ: Detoxifying mold from the body is challenging and can pose a considerable problem for those experiencing mold illness. We have hand-picked some of our favorite products that have been developed to address mold toxicity. We have listed suggestions in phases. Not everyone will need them all and sometimes you need them - its is a personal journey. ____________________________________________ PHASE 1: Please have health fundamentals in place before adding in supplements. In Phase 1, we are working to re-hydrate and mineralize your body. Introduce gentle liver support and binders. Some will need adrenal and mast cell support in this phase. We have listed those in phase 1. You can always remove any product from the cart before check out. Timing of phase one will depend on someones sensitivity - some need to start very very slowly and will be in phase 1 for months, while others constitution is different and ready for phase 2 as they finish the products in phase 1. 1. Liver Sauce: This blend of bitter herbs, R-Lipoic Acid, DIM, milk thistle, quercetin, and luteolin works synergistically to support the liver and gallbladder axis. It supports all three phases of detoxification, with special attention to bile flow, while encouraging a healthy immune response. This is a liposomal formula/liquid for ultimate absorption. Great for liver and gall bladder and a great starter option that is gentle. 2. Quinton Isotonic: A nutrient-rich, raw marine fluid harvested from the depths of plankton-rich ocean blooms and cold-sterilized to retain its healing properties. Contains over 80 bioavailable ionic minerals to replenish our cells with the same mineral-rich bath that nourished life on earth for so many millions of years. Mold is known to cause issue with hydration within the body. Take for 30 days to begin to bring back minerals then you can switch to standard electrolytes or spring water. OR - Quinton can be pricey, but I find one-month worth can be really helpful to support the body. Have first thing in the morning. I like to add the ampoule to about 2oz OJ and 2 oz coconut water. This is called an adrenal cocktail and great supports your adrenals. If this is not in your budget - add Trace Minerals to all drinking water, but even if taking quinton, please mineralize your water. Mold zaps the minerals and hydration from the body and this is a needed first step. 2. Trace Minerals : This is key to rehydrating the body. Add a few drop to all drinking water. Many need more sodium after mold exposure. Its hard for me to tell you which due to not knowing your blood pressure. But If you are dizzy and urinating a lot - you may want to use the Utah Mineral in place of the Trace Mineral Concentrate. 3. Ultra Binder: Ultra Binder is a comprehensive blend of natural materials that bind a extensive array of toxins including heavy metals, pesticides, herbicides, phthalates, bisphenol A (BPA), mold toxins, and bacterial endotoxin (also known as lipopolysaccharide, or LPS). In addition to the negative impacts that these substances may have on metabolism, immune, and endocrine system function, some of them, in particular mold toxins and LPS, block detoxification. This is a universal binder, some will need additional binders for specific mycotoxins. OR - Ultra Binder and Pectasol are both excellent and have their place in binding for molds and other toxins. I recommend starting with one and next round, use the other. Mixing up our binders can be supportive. 3. OR - Combination product: Quicksilver- Ultrabinder Capsules: Activated Charcoal, High Density Chitosan, Zeolite, PectaSol-C® Modified Citrus Pectin, Silica Extract†, BiAloe® Aloe Vera Leaf, Sodium Bentonite Clay - DO NOT USE-if a shellfish allergy. 3. Pectasol: Backed by 70+ studies, PectaSol is the original and only clinically proven Modified Citrus Pectin delivering total-body benefits all the way down to the cellular level. PectaSol has been trusted for over 25 years to provide unparalleled support for optimal long-term health and aging . 4. Reveratrol : It’s a potent antioxidant, and has been shown in animal research to have mycotoxin-specific reparative effects. Resveratrol supports the liver detoxification pathways in the liver for many different mycotoxins. I’ve seen it clear up brain fog and skin problems, as well as improve energy and aches and pains. Vit E and A can be helpful here as well. 5. Mega-Igg: Mega IgG 2000 works by “tagging” potentially dangerous viruses, bacteria, fungus, and proteins. The immunoglobulins can reduce gut inflammation and can address any gut infection because they prevent these harmful invaders from getting into the bloodstream. 6. BodyBio Phospholipids: A must have for mold toxicity. If you’re trying to dilute lipid-soluble toxin (mycotoxins), you need lipid-soluble solutions. Adding a complex of phospholipids – literally translating to phosphorous-linked lipids – we can restore many functions of the body that mold put on slow-mode. This includes brain function, detoxification, and mitochondrial function. (optional) Mast Cell Formula : Mast cells are often activated in mold illness. Supporting and stabilizing them can bring relief to your symptoms. Combines Turmeric with other herbal extracts to support a healthy response to allergens.* Quercetin, a flavonoid found in many plants, has also been studied for its effect on the histamine response. I find many need support in this area, also supports inflammation. (optional) Quercertin Plus: This is also great for calming mast cells. It has quercertin and stinging nettles (optional) Adrenal: Some need adaptogen, while others need direct cortex support. This is my go to, if I am not sure where your adrenals are at. I most often test the HPA axis before recommening. But You could ry this and see if its supportive for you. _______________________________________ Phase 2: This is a more aggressive phase, where we start addressing biofilms and possible colonization. Your health foundations are in place and you have started to mobile the toxins. Here we can consolidate products. This will also help with the finances. Stay taking your binder or rotate to a different binder. You may still need adrenal support, but you can wean off if you feel you can. You may still need mast cell supoort. 1. Detoxification Factors: Combination product to support detoxification and nutrients. Developed to support healthy Phase I and II detoxication pathways in the liver.* Detoxication Factors provides a combination of over 30 ingredients. It can be used for everyday nutritional support, for periods of increased oxidative stress and targeted cleansing. You may want to start very slowly. You may also need to add NAC. NAC is a precursor to gluthathione. Its more reasonable in cost and works great as a biofilm buster as well. 2. Stay with a binder 3. Stay mineralizing with trace minerals 4. Stay with Mast Cell and adrenals if needed 5. Biociden: A great broad spectrum anti-fungal. lightly addresses biofilms. 6. MegaSporeBiotic : is a 100% spore-based, broad-spectrum probiotic shown to maintain healthy gut barrier function. This unique all-spore formula effectively RECONDITIONS the gut by promoting microbial diversity and maintaining key health-promoting, commensal gut bacteria. ______________________________________________ Below may be a good fit as well, but this will be different for everyone on what they need. CodLiver: Provides Vit A and D. Greatly supports immune system and oxidation caused by inflammation. Can also help with energy. Calcium D-Glucarate : Certain molds such as MPA, may need this. This supports a specific part of phase 2 liver detox. Activated Nasal Mist: Clears nasal passages, and Xylitol acts as a biofilm buster. Mold most often enters through the nasal passage way. Keeping it clear of debris and starting to break down any biofilm is a good starting point for addressing potential sinus colonization. OR Argentyn 23 if you have mold colonization in sinuses. Vitamin E: Great antioxidant and for those experiencing hormonal imbalances. Glutathione Complex : Glutathione, a master detoxifier and our most potent internal antioxidant, is the centerpiece of this elegant formula designed to enhance detoxification. Milk thistle helps support the liver, and B vitamins may aid metabolism and energy. This is a liposomal formula/liquid for ultimate absorption. QÜELL® Fish Oil Ultra SPM: C ontains a unique blend of marine oils concentrated for specialized pro-resolving mediators (SPMs) and docosapentaenoic acid (DPA). Each softgel provides 560 mg omega-3 fatty acids and 300 mcg SPMs to support resolution of the immune response and restoration of homeostasis. This is key to helping lower and resolve inflammation. Pure GG: (Lactobacillus rhamnosus GG) . T he probiotic strain Lactobacillus rhamnosus GG has been found to bind the mycotoxin aflatoxin, increasing its elimination in the stool. Great option after you have spore biotic in place. Ther-biotic Interfase: This can trigger detox as you are now slowly peeling away bio-films. This can be intense and I highly recommend doing all the other steps before adding this. Biofilm consists of microorganisms encased within a self-produced matrix of exopolysaccharides and exoproteins that strongly adheres to interfaces and resists dislodgement. Microorganisms residing within biofilms are highly resistant to antimicrobials including antibiotics and bacteriocins produced by probiotics ___________________________________________ Important Note: I highly recommend starting with two products at a time and layer in two more at a time, as you feel you can tolerate. I also recommend starting very slow and building to the recommended does. Please pay attention on if you are sensitive - many with mold illness are and need to go very slowly. Immediately back off and add in a binder if you are feeling a dye off reaction. Hydrate, take an epsom salt bath and restart after a few days at a even lower dose! FOR THE HIGHLY SENSITIVE: Start with half the recommended dosing and work up to full dose if well tolerated. REPEAT 30 DAY PROTOCOL AS NEEDED: For mold exposure, this protocol may need to be followed for 4-6 months Disclaimer: This system is not intended to diagnose or treat any disease.

Gut Health Research is supporting more and more the out gut health can greatly support our overall health. While we highly recommend a personalized approach to your specific needs - we have listed some of our favorite products for you here. Choosing the right probiotic can be overwhelming, complex and certainly is not a one size fits all. With that said, here are some tips from Dr. Rusico to help guide you. He breaks down the types of probiotics into three categories. Category 1: Lactobacillus & bifidobacterium species predominated blends. These are the most well-researched, with over 500 trials assessing their validity. These live microorganisms are commonly used in foods such as yogurt, kefir and lacto-fermented sauerkraut. Also known as lactic-acid producing probiotic bacteria, they consume carbohydrates and produce lactic acid. They typically do not colonize the host, but do improve the health of the host. Category 2: Saccharomyces Boulardii (a healthy fungus). The second most researched probiotic, with over 100 studies. Saccharomyces boulardii (S. boulardii for short) is a healthy fungus. S. boulardii is not a normal part of the human microbiota, meaning it does not colonize us. They help fight the pathogenic bad bugs. Category 3: Soil-Based Probiotics using various bacillus species. This group has roughly 15 clinical trials evaluating their effectiveness. These live microorganisms are also known as non-lactic acid forming bacteria and sometimes also referred to as spore-forming bacteria. This category of probiotic can colonize the host. Dr Rusico says, seeking a product with all three or layering all categories, may be one of the most effective ways to address one's GI health. (a healthy fungus).

Please read: I have listed some of my favorite below. There are many options for all ages (liquid/ gummy/ pill form). Just simply add to the cart which works best for you and receive 10%off. In the News: Vitamin D and fish oil supplements may help prevent autoimmune disease Autoimmune disease occurs when the body's natural defense system suddenly sees normal cells as invaders and begins destroying those cells by mistake. A recent study (12/21) was designed to investigate whether vitamin D and marine derived long chain omega 3 fatty acids reduce autoimmune disease risk. 25 871 participants were enrolled and followed for a median of 5.3 years. Each participant had an autoimmune disease(s) confirmed by medical record review: rheumatoid arthritis, polymyalgia rheumatica, autoimmune thyroid disease, psoriasis, and others. The participants received Vitamin D (2000 IU/day) or matched placebo, and omega 3 fatty acids (1000 mg/day) or matched placebo. The Results: Vitamin D supplementation for five years, with or without omega 3 fatty acids, reduced autoimmune disease by 22%, while omega 3 fatty acid supplementation with or without vitamin D reduced the autoimmune disease rate by 15%. Both treatment arms showed larger effects than the reference arm (vitamin D placebo and omega 3 fatty acid placebo) by a total of 30% reduction. Source: BMJ 2022;376:e066452
