Today, I am blessed to have Ryan Blaser, an accomplished Founder and CEO of Test My Home, an environmental company dedicated to enhancing people's health and well-being. Serving as a functional medicine doctor for homes, Ryan leverages his expertise in building biology and healthy home consulting to identify and address toxic sources that may impact individuals' health. With an extensive educational background in electrical engineering, environmental toxicology, and electromagnetic radiation, along with years of hands-on experience in industries such as mold remediation, construction, and nuclear waste cleanup, Ryan possesses a profound understanding of the intricate relationship between humans and their built environment. Ryan's journey into the realm of functional medicine and healthy home consulting was deeply personal. His own wellness quest led him to confront the detrimental effects of mold exposure and lead inhalation, which manifested as severe health symptoms like fatigue, weight loss, and brain fog. Despite conventional medical approaches proving unsuccessful, Ryan took matters into his own hands, investigating his home environment to pinpoint the root cause of his health issues. Successfully curing himself, he has since dedicated his efforts to sharing his knowledge and experience with the world through the founding of Test My Home, helping others achieve optimal health by addressing environmental factors that impact well-being. In this episode, Ryan gives health advice based on his own experiences. Tune in as he discusses and answers questions about the effects of mold, its symptoms of toxicity, stories of health improvements, living a healthier life, and much more! / / E P I S O D E S P ON S O R S Wild Pastures: $20 OFF per Box for Life + Free Shipping for Life + $15 OFF your 1st Box! https://wildpastures.com/promos/save-20-for-life-lf?oid=6&affid=132&source_id=podcast&sub1=ad BonCharge: Blue light Blocking Glasses, Red Light Therapy, Sauna Blankets & More.

[09:42] Understanding Mold Symptoms: Differentiating Allergic and Neurological Responses · There are two types of symptoms related to mold exposure: allergic responses from mold parts and spores, and neurological effects from mycotoxins. · Mold can push the body into a toxic overload, manifesting issues at its weakest points. · Addressing water leaks and fixing the source is crucial, as mold needs both a food source (organic material) and water to grow. · Thorough cleaning is essential after fixing a mold problem, as it's the released biotoxins, not the mold itself, that can make occupants sick. · Mold toxins are invisible, can permeate clothing, carpets, and beds, requiring a comprehensive cleaning approach. [15:12] Mold Impact on Relationships and Mental Health · A couple facing relationship issues reached out for a virtual home walkthrough, revealing mold infestation in their crawlspace. · After remediation and moving out temporarily, the couple's relationship significantly improved, saving their marriage. · The mold strain in their home was identified as a specific irritant affecting their mental health. · This experience made Ryan realize the broader impact of mold on mental well-being, beyond physical symptoms. [23:08] Unraveling Health Mysteries: How Home Environment Impacts Well-being · A healthy family in a new home experienced mysterious health issues, especially neurological problems in their daughter. · Investigation revealed issues with the air filter size and gaps during Arizona dust storms, causing health problems. · The daughter's bed was placed near the refrigerator with a powerful motor, leading to high EMF (electromagnetic field) levels affecting her sleep and causing neurological symptoms. · Simple adjustment by moving the bed to the other side of the wall significantly improved the daughter's symptoms. · Ryan emphasizes the need for widespread knowledge on home interaction for overall well-being and advocates for incorporating this knowledge into educational curricula. [37:07] Boost Your Energy and Longevity: Easy Home Habits for a Healthier Life · Easy lifestyle changes can have a significant impact on energy levels and brain clarity. · Environmental factors are often overlooked but are crucial for well-being. · Regularly assess how you feel outside your home; positive feelings outdoors may indicate indoor environmental issues. · Improved well-being can lead to increased productivity, providing more time for family, side businesses, and personal pursuits. · There is a lot of value in having extra brainpower and energy for a more fulfilling and productive life.
