INSIGHT

Why Indoor Mold Is Different

  • Indoor mold matters because spores concentrate inside and are inhaled deeply into the lungs.
  • Mycotoxins are tiny and often target the brain causing fatigue, sleep issues, anxiety, and brain fog.
ADVICE

Start With History And Onset

  • Ask detailed history and onset to determine if exposure is recent or remote.
  • Use symptom pattern and timing to guide whether mold is likely causal.
INSIGHT

Urine Tests Often Mislead

  • Urinary mycotoxin tests often reflect recent dietary exposure and urine concentration variability.
  • Serum antibody or serum mycotoxin testing is more consistent and sensitive than single urine measurements.
