What does cause T-2 toxins?  I know that stachy has to be present but is it a

combo of others toxins mixed with stachy.  I would really love to be able to

comprehend this part.

Thank you

Sharon and Dr Thrasher,

Thanks for the " heads up " on what this " test kit " actually tests and

what it doesn't. Also consider the source.

I said this before, as have others: We must diligently understand

definitions and meanings to avoid loss of what little money we

have on right intentioned but misguided " silver bullets. " When we

get " suckered " in because we are truly desparate we lose more

than money. We risk the continuation of loss of health and well

being.

See my next post for another example.

T-2 toxins are the main topic of Chapter 34 from a Military Medicine handbook.

It discusses the ingestion and inhalation of T-2 toxins. This is one of those

items that the insurance industry and others refuse to acknowledge in their

review of the literature on mycotoxins.

KC, Carl, Dr. Thrasher,

I drives me nuts. People get victimized enough over this issue by

insurers, employers, builders, etc. The last thing we need in this issue is

someone selling another product professing to establish that they can determine

T-2 toxin in one's urine. To my knowledge, T-2 toxin has never even been

determined to be one of the toxins that are found in water damaged buildings.

Dr. has told me this. Dr. Straus has told me this.

And Dr. Chin Yang has told me this.

Thank you Dr.Thrasher and Carl,

I new a couple of you would comment on this test kit. Sorry people, I DID

NOT check things out like I normally do, and I strongly believe this is

more of a scam then anything. Especially the person that is trying to market

this kit. Still good info for everyone to see.

BEWARE
