In this episode of Root Cause Reset, we’re digging deep (literally and figuratively) into an often-overlooked root cause of chronic health issues: mold exposure. If you’ve been chasing symptoms like fatigue, brain fog, sinus problems, histamine intolerance, stubborn gut issues, or even hormonal imbalance without answers—this conversation might be a game-changer.

April and Dani share their functional perspective on how mold toxicity can silently impact systems across the body, how it often hides in your home, and why many conventional tests miss it altogether. You'll learn how to spot signs of mold illness, what types of functional testing are most effective, and actionable steps you can take to begin detoxing safely.

What You’ll Learn in This Episode:

• The top symptoms that might point to hidden mold exposure
• Why mold can mimic other root causes like candida, leaky gut, or Lyme
• The most reliable tests for detecting mold and mycotoxins
• How to test your home
• How mold toxins affect your gut, hormones, brain, and immune system
• The difference between mold allergies vs. mold toxicity
• Foundational steps to start healing from mold
• Why healing from mold is not a one-size-fits-all journey

This Episode Is For You If:

• You’ve tried multiple protocols (for gut, hormones, fatigue, etc.) with minimal progress
• You feel better when you’re away from home—or worse in specific environments
• Your labs are “normal,” but you still don’t feel like yourself
• You’ve had water damage, musty smells, or visible mold in your environment
• You want a root-cause based roadmap that looks beyond the surface
