Understanding Mold and Its Health Risks

Mold is a type of fungus that thrives in damp environments and can pose serious health risks, particularly when present indoors. While mold is essential for natural decomposition, certain types, especially toxic molds like black mold, release mycotoxins that can lead to respiratory issues, cognitive dysfunction, and weakened immune systems. Studies have shown that long-term exposure to these harmful molds is linked to conditions such as asthma, chronic sinusitis, and even neurodegenerative diseases. Identifying and addressing mold exposure is crucial, as symptoms may go unnoticed until significant health problems arise.
