I have never bought into the mycotoxin connection to reactivity but have no problem accepting what mold does to my immune system. I know it's real it's crippled me going on my 11th year now. But I have recently been pondering on the possibility that maybe we are not sensitized to mold specifically or made even made sick by mold but our immune systems are shot and my theory is by chemical exposure specifically (my opinion only) My latest theory is that the only reason we associate mold with our reactivity is because it's so prevalent. In this theory I surmise that if other forms of pathogens were so ubiquitous and impossible to avoid instead of mold we would react to them. Say some of the innocuous types of bacteria that grow on food. It's only because we can't avoid breathing that we are constantly reacting to mold. But secondarily we are reacting to food because their is plenty of bacteria in just about all the foods we eat unless we cook them out. So I have been experimenting on this premise by not touching anything that can't be cooked, lettuce, cereal, milk,orange juice, any of your produce such as apples. If it doesn't get cooked I don't touch it. I haven't experimented with this enough to make any tentative conclusion and I react to the house so it's going to be hard to separate but just wanted to throw this theory out their for anyone that is desperate enough to try this method of treatment on themselves. --------------------------------- Tonight's top picks.

Guest guest Posted October 9, 2007 Report Share Posted October 9, 2007 > > Mold-survivor.com Check out the diet. > http://mold-survivor.com/dietcopyright.html I agree with their suggestions of washing produce in hydrogen peroxide, and not touching any leftovers after a day, but I am ignoring all the warnings about the foods with sugar and mycotoxins and just following one basic principle. Not because I believe they lack any merit but simply as a test to see if they do have merit and to what extent and weather we should still be searching for other viable possibilities. That and I am not well equipped to implement these disciplines. I am hoping for something much more simple to follow. When things are this difficult to follow you get no science out of them because your always going to tell yourself " well I did this wrong or that thing or the other thing " It has to be relatively simple so that we can be stringent in our disciplines. And this way results can be giving more weight as to their effectiveness or lack their of. My theory, All foods to one degree or another have bacteria and mold on them, some more than others and their are many variations in species. For most this is innocuous and uneventful but for me anyways, the theory goes, I react to these pathogens violently and in the past attributed it to other variables. I am not focusing on the Candida angle, (not that I don't think it has merit) nor am I focusing on the mycotoxin angle, (I am less sure about this angle) Instead my angle is that pathogens cause immunological reactions in my body weather their ingested or inhaled and it's only that the main form of transmission is though inhalation that I have focused on mold all these years. And not entered ingestion into the equation. It is so easy to fool yourself, I don't know how many times I have attributed a reaction to something only to find later that maybe it wasn't a factor at all. I will have to be willing to accept this about my current theory and go back to the drawing board if I am wrong to one degree or another. (I doubt it's black and white) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wasn't aware of this. I know some things can be viewed this way. I heard on an love line episode where dr drew examined adam corola this way (for genetal warts). I think he mentioned using some type of solvent to enhance the results though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
