Now, in that kind of a setting, let's say your house is here, golf course is here, every day they're coming along spraying pesticides.
Or I have one deer family where I believe they live in Idaho.
And it turns out literally across the street from them, there is a farm.
And, you know, we kept looking and I was like, is this mold toxins?
Because this poor guy had all kinds of awful things happening.
Gastrointestinal issues, immune reactivity, gut falling apart, mitochondrial markers all over the place.
And we kept searching and their house was actually pretty clean until the mom's like, could it be the farm?
I'm like, so we checked his glyphosate levels and they were like off the charts, like higher than what I had ever seen in any of my other patients.
There are families that drink well water and their well water is contaminated with all kinds of things, including potentially heavy metals.

It's to say that in context, most ordinary people don't have enough exposure to these things to the point where they become the primary causative factor.

And these are the families that I care for.
Right.
And I mean, sadly, these are also families that, you know, from across the country are reaching out in high numbers saying, we've done everything.
We've done everything.
We've cut out sugar.
We've cut out gluten.
We've cut out this.
We're doing probiotics.
