Mycotoxin Test Results - Questions

Hello everyone, I hope you are all doing well. It's been a while since I've posted, but I recently received my results from RealTime labs for my mycotoxins, and a few things came back positive:

Ochratoxin A value was 1.97 (equivocal)
Aflatoxin Group was 0.99 (equivocal)
Tricothecene was 0.32 (positive)
Gliotoxin was 4.09 (positive)

The gliotoxin is quite high considering its positive >0.3.

My LLMD sent me instructions to take sacharomyces boulardii, which I am already doing every other day and she also said to start taking bentonite clay.

I'm confused what these results mean, where these toxins are coming from and what they are doing to my health. Is this inhibiting my healing? I've read that gliotoxin can simply be from candida, but I didn't think I really had a candida issue.

Lastly, I'm not sure if all bentonite clay is edible or which one I should get - any recommendations?


Thanks for the help as always!

Hey Traveler, thanks for the reply. I was kind of hoping people would have some more insight on these but what can you do. I've done a bit of research since and there are basically two theories behind the gliotoxins, the first and prevalent theory is that they are from aspergillus (environment mold) and the other theory is that candida produces them. The gliotoxins themselves have several effects, one of them is that they destroy many of your immune cells.

My LLMD says I should be taking bentonite clay specifically for the gliotoxins, so I picked some up. Hoping all goes well.

Anyway, thanks again.
