Published 1 month, 3 weeks ago
Description

Hey, Heal Squad! We're back with Part 2 of our must-listen conversation with Dr. Amy Myers…and this one is where we get into everything you actually DO about mold toxicity Dr. Amy walks Maria through the tests you actually need for mold toxicity, the detox protocol she uses in her own life to pull mycotoxins out of the body, and exactly how to clean up your environment (think dehumidifiers to HEPA filters to the food swaps that matter) …without having to build a mold-resistant house from scratch like she did. We also talk about simple things like how sweating daily, moving your bowels, and drinking filtered water aren't extras… they're detoxing. This is a great episode and playbook on what you can control with some amazing tools. So save this one and come back to it every time you move, renovate, travel, or feel a little "off" and can't figure out why.


HEALERS & HEAL LINERS

  • The tests to actually ask for (and the ones missing the real problem): Dr. Amy’s full testing playbook includes starting with the HLA-DR gene test (available through LabCorp), the urine mycotoxin panel that shows what your body is excreting, the ERMI dust test that catches what standard mold air tests miss, and the specific immune markers (VEGF, C4A, MMP) that Dr. Ritchie Shoemaker uses to flag mold toxicity. She also names the mold inspector she trusts with her life!

  • The 3 things Dr. Amy takes to get mold out of her body: Dr. Amy shares the exact 3-supplement stack she uses to detox mycotoxins: (1) acetylated glutathione, the number-one detoxifier in the human body, (2) a liver support supplement to help your liver process what's coming out, and (3) activated charcoal to bind the toxins and pull them out through your bowel movements. Then she connects it to the bigger picture : why infrared saunas, sweating daily, staying hydrated, and moving your bowels 1 to 3 times a day are the mechanisms doing the actual heavy lifting.

  • How to clean up your environment (and what to eat) without moving out: Dr. Amy closes with her "control what you can" list of habits she runs every day to lower her exposure. Start with a HEPA filter in your bedroom (where you spend 8 to 10 hours a day). Add a dehumidifier to keep humidity under 35%,  and empty it out regularly so it doesn't become the problem. Filter your drinking water AND your shower water. Eat organic at home so your body can handle whatever the outside world throws at you. Watch out for fast furniture and imported wool rugs. And the biggest one nobody wants to hear: SWEAT DAILY!
