About this episode
My guest and I will tackle the pressing question: Can mold affect your thyroid? Joining me for this critical conversation is Christina Cadden, my nurse practitioner who specializes in mold-related health issues. Christina shares her methodological approach to treating thyroid and hormone dysfunctions, advocating for optimizing these crucial health areas before moving on to the more costly tests for mold or Lyme—unless there’s a clear sign of mold exposure. Christina emphasizes the importance of individualized treatment, championing the principle of "test, don’t guess." Christina dives into her own experiences, discussing how she managed her elevated Ochratoxin A levels by making lifestyle adjustments like switching to mycotoxin-free coffee. Christina also emphasizes the significance of third-party testing to detect hidden mold in homes and workplaces, which are essential for accurate diagnosis and effective treatment. We will go deeper into the variability in how individuals react to mold exposure, emphasizing bio-individuality in treatment plans. Christina's experience with high mold exposure highlights the importance of thorough and personalized treatment protocols to effectively detoxify the body. This episode is packed with invaluable insights and practical advice for anyone grappling with mold-related health issues or persistent thyroid symptoms. This expert discussion offers not just a deeper understanding of the relationship between mold and thyroid health, but also actionable steps you can take to protect and optimize your well-being.
