She highlights that only 10-15% of symptoms are caused by mold spores, while the majority are caused by mycotoxins. Did you know that 50% of U.S. homes have water damage that can lead to toxic mold? Symptoms include fatigue, cognitive issues, visual problems, ear ringing, rashes, headaches, respiratory issues, heart palpitations, gut problems, and urinary symptoms. Dr. Crista emphasizes the importance of professional inspection and remediation, and shares her personal experience with mold-related illness. She also discussed the role of nutrition and detoxification in managing mold exposure. Dr. Jill is a best-selling author, acclaimed educator, and Naturopathic Doctor who has helped thousands recover their health after mold.
She’s on a mission to raise medical literacy about mold and mold-related illness.

She is certified in IV Nutrient Therapy, including advanced training in Heavy Metal Toxicology and Oncology through International IV Nutrient Therapy.
