  • Weird symptoms? Don’t ignore them, they might be CIRS or Chronic Inflammatory Response Syndrome

    For more information, visit https://thecirsgroup.com

    Today we’re talking about signs you might have CIRS. 1 in 4 people - that’s 25% of the population! - are genetically predisposed to having CIRS, or chronic inflammatory response syndrome, which means they are unable to process biotoxins out of their body if/when they encounter those biotoxins.

About The CIRS Group Podcast

From the publisher's feed

CIRS, or Chronic Inflammatory Response Syndrome, can happen to 25% of the population and is usually triggered by a biotoxin in the environment, like mold, red tide, lyme (tick bite), and even some medical interventions. Those with CIRS are susceptible to these toxins and cannot clear them on their own. Thankfully, treatment is possible, but given that people suffering with CIRS have difficulty processing new information, we created The CIRS Group and now, this podcast, to help people better understand and identify this treatable illness.
