Did you know that only 10% of how our body works comes from genetics, while a whopping 90% comes from our microbiome?

That's right; our gut plays a central role in controlling our overall health and well-being, and any disruptions can have far-reaching consequences.

One of the most significant disruptors of our gut health is mold.

Today, we are joined by the Co-Founder of Microbiome Labs Kiran Krishnan, who takes us on a journey of discovery through the intricate workings of our body's microbiome.

So how important is the gut microbiome compared to other areas of our body?

Well, it's the most crucial control center for all of them, based on signals they receive from the gut. The largest percentage of microbes in your body lives in your gut, and they feed other areas of the body, including the brain. In fact, the largest portion of immune tissue is in your gut, and your microbiota translates to others how to respond.

But here's the kicker – mold is the most common way autoimmune is triggered. When mold lands on a piece of tissue, an isolated inflammatory response occurs, and innate immune responders burn everything down, including your own cells. Adaptable immune responses are slower but more methodical, targeting specific bugs. However, if your gut is dysfunctional and missing t-reg function, your system cannot identify your own body's tissue, leading to autoimmune triggers.

We call this the bystander effect – when your body starts attacking everything, including your own cells, leading to a host of chronic illnesses.

But fear not – our expert guest has some great mold protocols with different products to help keep your gut microbiome healthy and thriving.

So, sit back, relax, and get ready for a wild ride through the fascinating world of gut health and mold with Kiran Krishnan!

We have our cars checked and get a physical at least once a year to make sure there are no issues.

Spoiler alert: We spend 90% of our time in our homes.

So, why don’t we treat our homes like we treat our cars?

The most common places I see issues in kitchens are:

#1: Remediators are NOT inspectors.

They are going to come in, remediate whatever you tell them to, and leave without checking for any other issues.

#2: You might not need something remediated.

Sometimes an area looks way worse than it actually is. If you’re just remediating something because it looks bad, you could be wasting your money.

#3: You don’t know what’s the highest priority.

Some mold problems are worse than others, but you’d have no way of knowing which area of your house is causing the most issues without an inspection.

And listen, I understand the need and want to get your house to a healthy place as quickly as possible.

But if you’re skipping out on the actual mold inspection piece of it, you’re just derailing your progress.

”How do I remove the mold in my shower?”

”Is mold making me sick?”

”Is it all in my head?”

And while these are all valid questions, there’s just simply no way I can answer these without more details about your specific situation.

On today’s episode of #moldfinders RADIO, I’m going to be talking about how It’s just like skincare.

What works for one person’s skin, isn’t just going to magically work for everyone else’s.

There’s no “now you see it, now you don’t” trick up my sleeve, I promise you.

I wish it was that easy.

So no, there’s no magic mold solution.

A lot of what I talk about online is about how to get you feeling better after you’ve already figured out you have a mold problem in your environment.

But I wanted to do a series on how to PREVENT mold in every room in your house.

Just like getting an annual physical, your house needs constant maintenance and check-ups BEFORE any issues arise.

And look, here’s a lollipop for being so brave and taking these preventative measures 🍭😝

On today’s episode of #moldfinders RADIO, I’m talking all about LIVING ROOMS and how to prevent mold growth in other finished areas of your house.

Two huge problem areas I see in houses are windows and carpets.

So check out this episode to see exactly how to stop a mold problem in its tracks and ensure you’re avoiding any potential problems.

Over the years, I've been lucky enough to connect with all different kinds of health specialists in this community.

These conversations truly help people understand the health and mold connection.

I'm just a mold inspector whose health was impacted by mold.

I'm not a doctor. Though some may consider me a house doctor 😎

So don't just take my word for it!

On today’s episode of #moldfinders RADIO, I've compiled 5 different interviews with different health specialists and selected my favorite point from each.

While this is probably still only scratching the surface, this is a great resource for anyone who's health or family has been impacted by mold.

Many thanks to our guest speakers: Caitlin Crowell, Dr. Jaban Moore, Dr. Elena Roumell, Bridgit Danner and Allison Rassp.
