Overlooked Dangers of Mold Exposure and How to Stay Safe – Dr. Kaplan Talks to WUSA9

Dr. Gary Kaplan says mold exposure can lead to a wide range of symptoms that go beyond what most people expect. Watch his interview with WUSA9 on the risks of mold exposure inside your home or work environment and how it can impact your health.

Symptoms of toxicity may include any of the following:

• Joint or Muscle Pain
• Vision Problems
• Chronic Headaches
• Fatigue
• Digestive Problems
• Decreased Ability to Focus
• Sleep Problems
• Wheezing
• Decreased Libido
• Weight gain / Obesity
• Depression / Anxiety
• Irritability / Mood Swings
• Poor Memory

Genetics can also influence whether or not a person will suffer ill effects, some people are genetically able to metabolize toxins, while others are not. Additionally, it is possible to be affected years after exposure.

Our evolving understanding of the disease process involved in mold toxicity, combined with your symptoms, genetic make-up, history of exposure, and health status will determine the treatment path most suitable for you. If the underlying cause of your pain or illness is mold toxicity and your treatment plan does not include a detoxification regimen, your overall recovery is very likely to be incomplete and far slower than it needs to be.
