Mold belongs to the fungi kingdom in nature. Yeast is a mold.
Candida is a type of yeast. Yeasts are actually single cell
organisms which can evolve into more complex organisms. It is more
a description of a state or stage of developement. Candida albicans
are the yeast mold most commonly found to cause yeast infections in
humans, for both women and men. Many things can contribute to yeast
infections, including pregnancy, mold exposures, antibiotics,
steroids, high fruit diets and oral birth control. They also
mention a connection between diabetes and candida.
In order for the human body to function properly, the strength
of the good bacteria and the good fungi must be kept in relative
balance with each other. This keeps both of them in check. If the
strength of either gets too much stronger than the other, they can
grow out of control, causing many health problems. When one has a
bacterial illness or condition, the doctor will often prescribe an
antibiotic drug. Most antibiotics are made from various mold fungi,
penicillin is made from the penicillium mold, etc. Antibiotics are
sent in to kill off the bacterial illness or condition. But, they
also kill off the good bacteria needed by the body to function
properly. This can upset the bacterial/fungal balance and lead to
an overgrowth of fungi, especially for a person who has had a toxic
mold exposure. Their body is already out of balance due to the
accumulated levels of mold fungi from their exposure. The last
thing they need is a concentrated dose of a fungal based
antibiotic.
Then the antibiotics reinforce the fungal army, making it even
more difficult to reachieve bacterial/fungal balance. The army of
various fungi, like yeast, combine to wreak havoc throughout the
body. It becomes more and more difficult for the body to produce
enough good bacteria fast enough to counter the out of control
growth rate of all the various fungi, including yeast. It is
important at this point to remember that we are dealing with
living, growing organisms. They need moisture and nutrients to grow
inside you. They get those from your body. They like sugar
carbohydrates. So, don't eat, feed them sugar carbohydrates. They
don't like chlorophyll since, mold is non-chlorophyll in nature.
So, eat lots of green vegetables and supplement your diet with
chlorophyll or chlorophyllin.
When the
bacterial/fungal balance is upset in the gastrointestinal digestive
system, proper functioning is disrupted, slowing down movement of
the nutrients, wastes and toxins through the system, leading to
constipation. It interrupts the absorption
processes. This gives sugars, yeasts, grains and fruits time to
combine and ferment into alcohol inside your body. Gases are
produced causing bloating of the abdomen, much like a balloon
inflating on top of a jug of home made beer or wine. After my own
toxic mold exposure I was fortunate enough to become one of
Dr.
Marinkovich's patients. I remember one of the questions
he asked was whether I had experienced bloating. The only time I
have ever been checked by a police officer for DUI was during my
toxic mold exposure, when I had not consumed any alcohol. It was
the way I was walking which drew his attention. There are
documented cases of people appearing drunk, when they have not
consumed any alcohol. It begs the question of how accurate the DUI
tests are in determining how much alcohol a person has been
drinking. How much of the alcohol was produced inside their body?
Perhaps it sheds some light on why some people, like myself, are
affected quicker by consuming alcohol.
To
reachieve proper bacterial/fungal balance the strength of the
fungal army must be reduced at the same time as the strength of the
good bacterial army is increased. This can be achieved using a
combination of antifungals and probiotics. Once bacterial/fungal
balance is re-established, the levels of both need to be reduced
simultaneously, to levels the cleaning systems can easily manage.
This can be done a number of ways. Chlorophyllin appears to be
effective against both bacteria and fungi. Hydrogen peroxide is a
sterilant, killing both bacteria and fungi. Hydrogen peroxide can
be introduced topically on the skin, as a mouth rinse, as an ear
cleaner, and even intravenously by a medical practitioner. Liver cleanses are very helpful by clearing
out a lot of the accumulated material the overburdened liver has tried to
clean out of the body's operating systems. Colon cleanses can help clear the backed up
sludge out of the colon.
For those
people who have had toxic mold introduced into the equation, there
is another very important aspect to consider. The different
bacteria and fungi are like siblings, often existing in symbiotic
relationships, helping each other. But, sibling rivalry ensues as
they fight for the limited resources of moisture and nutrients
inside the human body, in order to survive. The situation becomes
much more complex when toxic mold fungi have been introduced into
the chemistry of the body. Toxic molds produce mycotoxins to kill off their microbial
competitors. The more crowded it gets in the competition for
resources, the more mycotoxins that get produced, and the stronger
the toxic molds become in the equation. At this point the body is
not only out of balance, affecting it's ability to fight off the
detrimental effects, strong destructive toxins start damaging the
brain and central nervous system. Now, detoxification needs to
become a part of the protocol. Chlorophyllin is effective for
this.
