When someone is first starting their journey on considering if mold may be a driver to their unique symptoms and increasing diagnoses, one of the most common first questions I hear is: what mold test do I use - and which mold test kit actually works?
That's why, in today's episode, I’m breaking down the ONLY 2 mold tests you need to know if you’re sick from toxic mold.
In today's episode, I'll be breaking down:
- Why a mold allergy test is not enough and often misses mold illness
- My favorite at-home mold test kit for your body
- My favorite at-home mold test kit to see if your house may have a mold issue
- What steps to take if one or both of these tests comes up positive
If you're ready to simplify your mold healing journey and clarify the exact next steps you need to take (without wasting money), then this episode is for you.
