Mast Cells, Mold, & Long COVID: Unlocking Hidden Pathways to Recovery


Listen Later

Here's the scenario: you've been struggling with Long COVID symptoms for months, experiencing brain fog, fatigue, and autonomic nervous system dysfunction. You've tried everything, but nothing seems to work.

For many with Long COVID, mold exposure and mast cell activation syndrome create a perfect storm for symptoms to develop and persist.

In this episode of the Gordon Medical Forum podcast, Dr. Nafysa Parpia and Dr. Jill Crista examine how hidden mold exposure triggers mast cell activation syndrome, making some people far more susceptible to severe Long COVID symptoms. 

Episode Highlights

  • How mycotoxins from hidden mold trigger mast cell activation and create the perfect storm for Long COVID susceptibility
  • Research revealing how spike protein binding to neurological receptors may explain the symptoms of Long COVID, and therapeutic approaches targeting these receptor pathways
  • Why modern building practices, EMF exposure, and antifungal resistant mold are creating unprecedented health challenges
  • Why treating colonized mold in the sinuses is crucial for recovery, and how mycotoxins cross the blood-brain barrier
  • Essential nutrients and enzymes needed to safely support receptor function and help dislodge spike proteins without causing cardiovascular complications
