I never in a million years would have thought of that.

It was a different situation for me than it would be for somebody else because when we moved out of mold, I was breastfeeding.

And then I was breastfeeding all up until the point that I got pregnant again.

So I never went through a period of time where I wasn't breastfeeding or pregnant for the last four years.

And so...

Ideally, you don't want to be doing any kind of heavy detox of your body when you're pregnant or breastfeeding because you don't want to pass toxins on through breast milk or to the baby in your womb.

For somebody that's not in that situation, you can take a more aggressive approach to detoxing from mold, but there's a few things to consider, and I would highly recommend that anybody who's wanting to detox from mold, first of all, should no longer be living in a moldy environment because

because that's the best thing you can do to detox your body from mold is get out of the mold.

You can't really fully heal from a mold exposure if you're still actively being exposed to it.

There are ways to support your body while you live in mold and make it less impactful.

But overall, if you're wanting to like really heal, you need to be removed from that environment.

There are gentle things you can do like different herbs and supplements that can help just with gentle detox and cleanse, especially supporting the liver during that post-mold season that are great.

Also, you want to consider that mold can colonize in the nasal passages and in the gut.

And so you want to support your gut.

Obviously, this is a no-brainer, but like a great nutrition plan, focusing on whole foods, avoiding things like processed sugar and seed oils is great just for supporting that good gut health, getting good probiotic foods, all the things that

people generally know well hopefully they do if they listen to this show or you have not been listening very well exactly you guys better know gut support eating the right kinds of foods that's really helpful especially for just cleansing out anything that's colonized there and

For your nasal passages, saline rinsing is really helpful.

And in fact, I usually keep like nasal saline rinse with me when I travel in case I'm staying in a hotel room that might have mold or if we're going to stay with a relative that might have mold in their home.

Most homes and most buildings have mold in them.

So that's just a regular exposure that I kind of assume is going to happen to me at this point.
