It is not so much the mold as the VOCs, but avoiding eating molds is helpful when you are in a very sensitive mode. This means eating ONLY freshly cooked foods, no left overs at all. Mold can grow 10 million colonies in 24 hours at the proper humidity and temperature. Some molds grow in the arctic and at very low moisture levels.
Allergies and Candida by Stephen Rochlitiz PhD (Physics) is and excllent source of information on avoiding mold allergies and the Candida overgrowth / dysbiosis that can come from immune suppression or meridian switching. He has test points and correction anyone can do at home to correct the switching. He says this is the difference between those who get deathly ill and may progress to chronic fatigue and other serious degenerative diseases and those who simply get a slight case of candida somewhere in the body. The book is out of print but Kind County Library (Seattle) has it and your library can request it on interlibrary loan. Dr Rochlitz does seminars and has a website that sells some products. I know this is too much information to absorb, so do take frequent breaks, breathe deeply and KNOW that you can make these changes over a period of time. Do NOT try to alter your lifestyle all at once. The stress and cortisol induction that will occur is further immune supressing and is known to induce allergies. Catch 22 Breathe In . . . .
