In the past, viruses and bacteria were entirely unknown, yet had massive effects on health. In a similar way, today many illnesses are due to exposure to biotoxins, especially those made by molds growing inside our buildings, yet many aren’t yet aware of it.
They soon will be, though: biotoxin-induced illness will become one of the most important medical topics in the 21st Century.
As you read this, you’re surrounded by biotoxins. So are your loved ones. In fact, an aggressive explosion of unique indoor molds that carry chemical toxins on their spores has caused an e xplosion of illnesses associated with the inflammation these toxins cause. Biotoxins have made many of you ill, but your physicians have told you instead that you’re sick from fibromyalgia, st ress, depression, Chronic Fatigue Syndrome or some other vague and unsupported diagnosis. Yet paradoxically, if they knew what to look for, biotoxin illness is easily diagnosed and, if caught in time, readily treated. Hundreds of my patients, once debilitated, now lead normal lives.
What I’m saying is new; this book isn’t just another health book. It’s the first major book that explains how biotoxins cause those illnesses, and what you can do to make sure you or family doesn’t get them. If you’re already ill, it reveals a new treatment protocol that has already helped hundreds get well. And it explains how to go about educating your doctor so that he can adequately diagnose and treat biotoxin illness.
Whether or not biotoxins cause you or your loved ones harm largely depends on your genes; your previous, present and future toxic exposures; and what you decide to do with the information in your hand.
Whether the source of mold is your child’s flat-roofed school, the office building without proper ventilation or the family home with its moldy walkout basement, the illness is no different. The first step to healing begins with learning what Mold Warriors can teach you. This book opens a New World for your physician, your health care provider and most importantly—you.
Don’t expect everyone in the medical community to quickly embrace the facts in this book. Major changes in Medicine come only after fierce battles against limited, narrow thinking. As you read this book, you’ll see the fierce battles many have fought just to remain healthy or stay alive.
These battles, which I’ve called the “Mold Wars,” continue.
The Mold Wars are a classic case of right vs. wrong, with quite a bit of David-and-Goliath thrown in to keep it really interesting. Sounds dramatic? Overstated? Hardly. Here’s a sample of what i nsightful patients have said and the traditional responses they’ve received:
Mold makes me chronically fatigued and takes away my ability to think.
The CDC and the Institute of Medicine says that’s not proven.
I’m sick because of mold.
No, you have fibromyalgia or you’re depressed.
M old causes many physiologic problems that my doctor can measure.
No, I’ve never heard of those tests.
Mold illness has a genetic basis.
No, we don’t know anything about HLA and its relationship to biotoxin illness.
Mold illness causes scars on the brain that look like MS.
No, those scars are non-specific.
Mold illness is chronic unless treatment is begun.
No, mold illness is an allergy.
Mold illness causes learning disability in children and unusual neurological problems in adults, including seizures and Parkinson’s disease.
No, the government says that isn’t so.
Mold disrupts immune responses, turning on antibody attacks against our own bodies.
No, where are your data proving that?
You don’t really have any knowledge about what I’m saying about mold illness, do you?
No, and besides if I ever admitted that I agreed with you, it might cost my employers millions of dollars as well as cause them a lot of embarrassment.
The good news is that the truth is now out.
In Mold Warriors, the truth wins against overwhelming forces.
Mold Warriors will show you how mold makes us sick. You’ll mee t real people with real health problems, who will tell you what you must know to survive the molds in our homes, businesses, schools and public facilities.
