Mycotoxicity explained: Mycotoxins are the “bio-toxins” (poisons) produced by various species of fungi / mold. Just like a rattle snake produces “venom”, which is its bio-toxin, fungi / mold produces its own bio-toxins which are called “Mycotoxins”.
There are many different types of mycotoxins and this is what makes treating patients for mold exposure difficult. Mold Exposure victims are usually exposed to more than one species of mold resulting in exposure to multiple types of mycotoxins, this is known as a “Co-Exposure”. If you have been exposed to mold getting the right mycotoxin test is extremely important for patient recovery.

Mycotoxicosis is the state where it has been determined that a patient has tested positive for elevated levels of mycotoxins in their body and those mycotoxins have caused a genetic change, symptoms to arise, or a disease to develop.
If you have been exposed to mold and are exhibiting multiple symptoms getting the right mycotoxin test is critical to your recovery.

The ability to understand the interactions of Mycotoxins within the human body is only one reason National Treatment Centers for Environmental Disease has one of the highest rates of patient recovery from mold exposure and mycotoxicosis.
