My story (Les Berenson MD)
After watching Moldy (link below) and reading about mold for a year I stayed in denial (you have to clean up your environment before cleaning up your body and I have 30 years of “stuff” in my basement which was moldy.

I attended Dr. Walter Crinnion’s Environmental Medicine and Mold conference and came back and did a lot of testing. Beside being Mold toxic my glyphosate level (main ingredient in Roundup) was 75%, my organophosphate 80%; MTBE (gasoline additives) 90%; Styrenes 80%; Vinyl Chloride 75%; (I’m not sure I’m any more toxic than most others, I just looked for it and found these often “silent” abnormalities.

I discovered that mold by strangulating my mitochondria was likely creating respiratory and fatigue difficulties when jogging, hiking, and snowshoeing, making my weight difficult to manage, endocrine disruption, affecting my immune system – healing wounds past few years and more.

I found a environmental medicine specialist in Portland who has me on a detoxification program along with my sauna and Niacin flushing), and after 6 weeks — my recovery is apparent – my skin now heals, my blood clots almost immediately both suggestion my immune system is recovering. Unable to jog 3 miles last 2 years –
I can now run successfully and start to exercise on a more rigorous basis.
