Has anyone undergone homeopathic treatment for mold? My friends are questioning and doubting if it will work. On my bio scans zygosporium has consistently shown up. So we are targeting the fungus with homeopathic remedies. Wouldn't anything that kill fungus be able to help with the mold infection? My LLMD told me to do Byron White A-Fung. Wouldn't the homeopathics operate in the same way the A-Fung would?

What is the goal of mold treatment? I lived in a moldy house with at least three of the top five most toxic molds for over 2 years. I am now out of the mold, but trying to figure out what to do next. Thanks.

You need to remove the mold. I think that's the bigger part of it...being able to remove the toxins. (after removing the mold from your environment (or yourself)

Hopefully someone who has treated mold will come along and share their knowledge.

I have,never used homeopathics. Cannot vouch for their validity or effectiveness.

Cholestyramine (Rx) is the most effective mold binder. Modified citrus pectin and activated charcoal help some but not nearly as fast or effective as CSM. FIR sauna can also help detox mold.

WalkingbyFaith, is it worth putting artificial sweeteners in myself if I stick with the non-compounded version? I feel like that’s counter intuitive.

Tough call. If you can afford a month's worth of pure CSM, that would be optimal. You could switch to cheaper binders after that. I think a solid month's worth of CSM would do a lot, provided you are no longer being exposed to mold.

CSM is very potent, though, and some have trouble tolerating it, as it mobilizes a lot of toxins. I couldn't tolerate it for that reason. My detox pathways were just too impaired.

Hi MA10,

As others have stated the most important thing is to remove yourself from the mold exposure (as someone who is trying to do this at work, it can be very difficult - so you've done the hard part in my opinion!)

Next, you need to start on binders to remove the toxins. I highly recommend buying Dr Neal Nathan's ebook on Mold as he describes which binders to take for which mycotoxin is in you and he is a general wealth of knowledge on this topic. Charcoal, Modified Citrus Pectin, Welchol and Cholestyramine are all effective, but are specific towards the kind of mycotoxin in you. Also, you need to detox. Glutathione can be tremendously helpful as are ALA and NAC. Sweating is probably the single most important thing to do in my opinion, including infrared saunas. Herbal treatments like A-FNG can be helpful but only in tandem with the above. I have no experience with the homeopathic remedy though - sorry.

Cholestyramine worked for me>alongwith moving two years ago. My mold symptoms are gone. No more chest wheeziness, no more allergies, or shortness of breath. Air hunger>gone!!!!

I also did 1month of rifaximin to clean up the gut of S.I.B.O.

Thanks for the answers everyone. I guess I am focusing too much on the killing and not as much on the binding. I honestly don't think my doctor is well-versed in mold treatment. One doctor tells me that chlorella is strong enough for mold binding. The other doctor has given me a liquid formula that he says binds to toxins. I have the regular cholestryamine that I just need to suck it up and take. I wish I could afford a month's worth of pure CSM.

It's good you know what specific molds you're suffering with, as I know different types respond better to certain treatments. My other half is using a supplement called Ultra Binder which is primarily activated charcoal and bentonite clay, along with chlorella, at the end of the day. That plus regular other detox methods which can only help. She's high in Ochratoxin A which I've read responds better to chlorestyramine, while a lot of the others can be handled with the likes of charcoal, clay and other binders
