Summary
Mold. It's not always as straightforward as it seems, and its symptoms can mimic other conditions. It can be a hidden culprit behind various health issues, but it's not always easy to identify. From respiratory issues to brain fog, mold exposure can manifest in various ways.
In this episode, we're not just scratching the surface; we're exploring the ins and outs of how mold can affect our bodies and what we can do about it. Erin sits down with her Lead Practitioner, Rachel Mistry, to guide you through the process of identifying, understanding, and addressing mold exposure.

| 0:00.0 | I'm Erin Holt, and this is the Functional Nutrition Podcast, where we lean into intuitive |
| 0:07.2 | functional medicine. We look at how diet, our environment, our emotions, and our beliefs |
| 0:12.5 | all affect our physical health. This podcast is your full-bodied, well-rounded resource. |
| 0:18.7 | I've got over a decade of clinical experience, and because of that, |
| 0:22.2 | I've got a major bone to pick with diet culture and the conventional health care model. |
| 0:26.4 | They're both failing so many of us. But functional medicine isn't the panacea that it's made |
| 0:31.3 | out to be either. We've got some work to do, and that's why creating a new model is my life's |
| 0:37.0 | work. I believe in the ripple |
| 0:38.7 | effect. So I founded the Functional Nutrition Academy, a school and mentorship for practitioners |

| 1:12.8 | Okay, yay, keep coming back for more. Okay. Yay. We're back. And I've got Rachel on with me, our lead practitioner. Hi, Rachel. |
| 1:19.6 | Hey, Aaron. And we're doing it. We're doing it a mold episode. I've always been really hesitant |
| 1:26.5 | to talk too too much about mold on this show |
| 1:28.6 | because it can scare people, myself included. It's one of those things that like when I first |
| 1:33.5 | was getting into functional medicine for my own health and first learning about functional |
| 1:37.2 | medicine, it was like the options were unlimited with all of the different things that could be |
