Taking Internal Mold from 5700 to 0 in under 10 Months!
In this article, I will be examining the case of one of my patients. This man came to me in August of 2020 suffering from depression, anxiety, and fatigue. He was active and in good shape, and worked in the rental business. He had previously suffered from chronic sinus infections and had already had a corrective surgery to fix his deviated septum.
After that surgery, he was placed on a lot of antibiotics, particularly Cipro and fluoroquinolones. Suddenly he was dealing with anxiety, depression, fatigue, and depolarization.
Aspergillus and Mold Infections
The first test we looked at was the Mycotox Profile by Great Plains, administered in August of 2020. In particular, we looked at aspergillus, a common mold, and its byproduct gliotoxin. This first test came back with readings over 5700.
Now, most people breathe in Aspergillus spores daily without issue. It really only becomes a problem for people with weakened immune systems. In this case, the patient’s immune system had become weakened due to the medications he was given post-surgery.

Gliotoxin at ZERO!
Mold infections are chronic, and you will not get better without medical attention. Many chronic conditions that are difficult to diagnose end up being caused by a mold infection, which is rarely tested for in common systems. This patient had been suffering from chronic sinus infections for decades, which may have been closely tied to his mold infection.
Aspergillus in particular excretes gliotoxin as a way of suppressing your immune system to keep your body from fighting it.
Treatment’s Results
After identifying the problem in this patient, we began a treatment plan. By the time we tested again in September of 2020, his readings dropped to slightly below 2400. His third check, in January 2021, showed another drastic drop to around 1600. Our most recent check, in May of 2021, showed a level of zero.
This type of condition often goes overlooked in the conventional system. Using functional medicine, we were able to identify his problem and find a solution that worked for him. Within a month he saw a drastic increase in his quality of life, and now he’s living mold-free.
