Million people in the united States alone suffer from migraine
headaches. As a result of my Toxic Mold exposure I had chronic
headaches, often evolving into migraines. They would get so intense
the nausea would incapacitate me. There were times when they got so
bad I had difficulty seeing to drive. The pressure felt like my
brain was going to swell right out of my skull. Sometimes when I
was laying down on my right side, it would feel like someone was
putting their hand on my left temple and pulling the skin upwards
towards the top of my head. The lightheadedness and dizziness
sometimes brought me close to the point of passing out, or visually
blacking out. I would get sharp pains in the left rear of my brain
which really scared me. I started worrying about the possibility of
a stroke.
There is a
cause of headaches which most people are not aware of. The mold
fungi in our breathing environments, birth control pills and the
antibiotics given to both people and meat producing animals, all
increase the level of fungi inside our bodies, upsetting the fungal
/ bacteria balance of our bodies.
The molds
from our breathing environments play a substancial role in
headaches, especially if your home, workplace or school has any
kind of mold problem. If it has ever had a leak where the building
materials were not dried out within 24-72 hours mold will grow. If
there is moisture in the building materials or in the air, mold
will continue to grow. Replacing all affected building materials is
necessary to eliminate the problem. An air cleaner with a HEPA
filter is the quickest solution to capture the spores and
mycotoxins out of the air.
The problem
of having any mold growth inside a building is how it accumulates
to become concentrated. Toxic molds produce mycotoxins to kill off
their microbial competitors. Mycotoxins are very harmful to the brain and central
nervous system. This is why some of the same toxic mold
found in homes, workplaces and schools are concentrated and
weaponized into the most powerful biological weapons on Earth, the
T-2 Mycotoxin Biological Weapons.
By studying these same
toxic molds in their concentrated/weaponized form it gives us an
end-case picture of what they are capable of subtly doing in their
natural form, especially when concentrated in a home, workplace or
school, over an extended period of time. The longer the exposure,
the more damage done to the brain and central nervous system. A
friend of mine proved in court that their health problems,
including their childrens' autistic symptoms, were a direct result
of their toxic mold exposure. They won their case in
Oregon.
When
mycotoxins damage the brain and central nervous system it can
contibute to ADD, ADHD and damage the myelin shield, contributing
to multiple sclerosis. It can also cause a heightened state of
anxiety and irritability, which can take a person from complete
calm to confrontation in a matter of minutes. It may be damaging
the connections between the two halves of the brain. So, when they
are confronted with a situation, their 'fight or flight' kicks in.
With the connections damaged they have difficulty returning to a
reasonable, calm state of mind. Essentially they remain in a 'fight
or flight' state of mind for a much more extended period of time
than is normal. This can lead to disruption of families, domestic
abuse and even domestic violence.
Just because
you do not see mold growing anywhere in your home does not mean
there isn't any. It can grow inside walls, ceilings, under floors,
under tile or linoleum, especially around toilets, or in the
carpeting and their pads, without you ever knowing you have a
problem. The smell only occurs during certain periods of their
growth cycle, as they produce MVOCs, Microbiological Volatile
Organic Compounds. They can be harming you long before they become
visible, if they ever do.
We also inhale a lot of mold spores from outdoor environments,
especially in wet climates. The level of mold spores in the outside
air is 100-1000 times higher than pollen, even when pollen is at
it's highest level. During the transitional seasons of Spring and
Fall the spore counts skyrocket, as the weather oscillates between
wet, dry, wet. When it is wet mold grows. When it is dry they
sporulate, sending their spores into the wind to find moisture, to
grow.
Since the human body has difficulty getting the mold out of the
body, it usually accumulates to higher and higher levels,
especially when additional mold fungi are accumulating at a faster
rate than our body's cleaning systems are capable of cleansing them
from the body. For some of us they started accumulating when we
were children, causing many childhood ailments. They don't usually
leave the human body on their own, due to their getting stuck in
the mucous membranes throughout our bodies. This can lead to long
standing health problems, usually not correctly identified as being
from molds in our environments.
How does this
cause headaches?
When the mold fungi antigens invade the human body the immune
defense system combines the mold antigen with their antibody, to
form an immune
complex. These immune complexes patrol the
body looking for other mold invaders to destroy. The trouble with
these particular immune complexes is the size. By the time the
large mold antigen is combined with it's antibody, it is so large
that when it is patrolling it often gets stuck in and blocks
capillaries. Capillaries are noodle-like passages used to transport
blood and nutrients from one place to another.
In the case of the immune complexes traveling inside the blood of
the circulatory system, they often get stuck and block the smaller
blood capillaries. This prevents the needed oxygenated blood
getting from the arteries to the cells and tissues, where it is
required. Without it, and the oxygen it provides, the cells and
tissues will degenerate and die.
A lot of these smaller
blood capillaries are around joints and in the brain. Disrupting
adequate supplies of oxygenated blood getting to joints causes
arthritis type pain. Disrupting adequate supplies of oxygenated
blood getting to the brain can cause headaches, brain shrinkage,
memory and comprehension loss, alzheimers and many other problems.
Our subconcious sensory communication network uses pain to
communication this condition to our conscious mind. The
communication of pain is telling you there is a physiological
problem, with an underlying causation which needs to be
corrected.
These blockages in the
blood circulatory system can contribute to higher blood pressure.
With the heart continuing to pump blood through the circulatory
system, the blood pressure builds up behind these blockages.
This causes the
sensation of pressure. There are a lot of smaller blood capillaries
in the brain, which leads to a lot of pressure in the head. I could
actually feel the sensation of a sharp pressure pain, then a
release, as the immune complex would momentarily get stuck in a
smaller capillary, and then got pushed on through. Once I
recognized that sensation for what it was, I was able to take an
aspirin to thin the blood, enabling the blood to get around the
immune complex blockages easier. Many of the pain killers, such as
aspirin, thin the blood. That is why aspirin is used to prevent
strokes and heart attacks. But, this is only a temporary fix. The
underlying causation needs to be corrected.
The
mycotoxins effected my memory like I was getting alzheimers. If you
interrupted me in the middle of a sentence, I could not remember
what I was talking about. I resisted people interrupting me when I
was talking, in order to prevent this. Muscles would spasm
different places on my body, such as my back and hands. The
intensity of tremulation in my jaw varied, being determined by the
level of mycotoxins affecting my body and stress.
I
experienced a lot of visual problems because of the toxic mold. My
eyes became sensitized to light. Bright light felt like it was
piercing my brain, making the headaches worse. My vision
degenerated considerably during this period. I had a lot of blurry
vision , which would pulsate back and forth between blurry and not
so blurry. I believe this was caused by a combination of immune
complexes putting pressure on the optic nerves and damage to the
brain and nervous system by mycotoxins.
Antifungal
protocols eliminated all my health problems
The important point here
is that I was able to eliminate all of my health
problems, including headaches. This was done by
lowering the level of toxic mold and their mycotoxins in my body.
As I lowered their levels in my body, the level of health problems
went down also, in direct correlation. Periodically I encounter
higher levels of toxic mold in my environment, triggering some of
the symptoms to start to come back. I increase my antifungal
protocols, and the health symptoms go away. The big questions
are;
1) What percentage of health problems are
directly or indirectly related to toxic mold exposures many people
are getting from their environments?
And
2) What
percentage of those health problems are being incorrectly
attributed to something else?
After all
the health problems I experienced as a result of my toxic mold
exposure, and how simple antifungal protocols eliminated
all of them, I believe the answer to both
of the above questions is - A Very High Percentage
