BACK COVER:
From a small town bordering the Chesapeake Bay in 1997, a family physician discovered the cause of and treatment for a new human illness that followed exposure to a dangerous, biotoxin-forming, fish killing creature, Pfiesteria. Now, this national award winning physician, who treats patients from all over the world, shows us the risk for illnesses caused by biotoxins made by mold that lives in our homes, schools and work buildings.

Co-authored with writer and practicing psychiatrist, James Schaller, MD and long-time health activist and writer Patti Schmidt, MOLD WARRIORS is the first book to bring cutting edge science and medicine to the controversial world of toxic mold.

Have you heard of Sick Building Syndrome? Do a group of people in your school or at work all have a cough, fibromyalgia, or trouble concentrating? Did the ceiling leak in your apartment just before you developed Chronic Fatigue Syndrome? Does your basement smell musty even when it isn't flooded? You might be ill from exposure to toxin-forming molds growing indoors and not realize it.

MOLD WARRIORS is the first book to offer answers and hope for relief of chronic health symptoms caused by molds growing in our indoor environments: Pain, fatigue, headache, unexplained weight gain, respiratory illness, memory loss and neurologic illness that looks like multiple sclerosis, are often caused by mold toxins. Mold illness victims average 18 health symptoms!

MOLD WARRIORS tells you what you need to know about mold illness, how to recognize it, treat it and defeat the arguments posed by employers, insurance companies and U.S. government officials, who still wrongly claim that mold "doesn't make anyone seriously ill."
