Mycotoxins can have a serious impact on our health. Mycotoxins are microscopicfungal poisons that can sneak into our bodies through the digestive and respiratory systems. They are literal poisons that have the potential to make us very sick.
While we’d all like to think of our bodies as our own, the truth is a little bit more complicated than that. You see, our bodies are cohabitated by trillions of microorganisms that collectively make up your microbiome. While it’s obvious that these microscopic organisms rely on us to survive, what’s less obvious is that…
A potential trigger in the development of autism is a class of microscopic poisons known as mycotoxins. Today we’re going to explore what mycotoxins are and exactly how they’re linked to autism.
As a functional medicine physician dedicated to discovering the root causes of illness and supporting the body’s innate healing capabilities, I’m constantly exploring innovative therapies that align with these principles. Recently, I had the privilege of experiencing firsthand the remarkable treatments offered at Renue Healthcare, and I’m excited to share my journey with you. A…
What do chronic migraines, irritable bowel syndrome, and autism all have in common? All of these conditions can be caused by a faulty enzyme called MTHFR. While it may look like an abbreviation for a curse word, MTHFR actually stands for methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase. This little enzyme plays a very important role in the body. MTHFR…

For nearly two decades, the medical benefits of molecular hydrogen have been shrouded in mystery, with many researchers relying on a flawed “selective antioxidant” hypothesis. A groundbreaking 2025 discovery identifying the Rieske iron-sulfur protein in mitochondrial Complex III as a key target finally explains how hydrogen actually works: it acts as a mitochondrial signaling molecule and a hormetic stressor. This article unpacks the new science, clarifies the limitations of the current clinical evidence, and cuts through the marketing hype surrounding hydrogen therapies.
Mold and mycotoxins are among the most underrecognized drivers of chronic illness in medicine today. For individuals with a pre-existing dysregulated immune system, it is often a combination of catastrophe.1
Mast cells are an important part of your immune system, without them you would never heal from an injury. However, there is a condition where they become overactive and cause serious problems in the body – this condition is called mast cell activation syndrome (MCAS).
As a functional medicine physician who has personally recovered from toxic mold illness, I’ve dedicated much of my career to understanding the profound and often overlooked connections between environmental exposures and our neurological health.
