    Send us Fan Mail What happens when you've already tested your home for mold... multiple times... and every test says everything is fine? For Ali Moresco, the answer changed her life. After years of battling Lyme disease, chronic fatigue, brain fog, and unexplained symptoms, one of her doctors suggested something she hadn't considered: her home. The problem? Her house had already been tested for mold. Three different times. Every inspection came back "normal." It wasn't until a more comprehensive investigation uncovered hidden mold behind walls and beneath the shower that everything started to make sense. In this episode of Never Been Sicker, Michael Rubino sits down with Ali to discuss her journey through chronic illness, Lyme disease, hidden mold exposure, and why so many people are told their homes are "fine" when dangerous contamination is still present. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- CHAPTERS: 00:00 Introduction 00:22 Meet Ali Moresco 01:15 Life Before Lyme Disease 06:18 A Healthcare Journey Full of Dead Ends 12:45 Why Chronic Illness Patients Feel Dismissed 20:40 The Doctor Who Asked About Mold 24:05 Three Mold Inspections Missed Everything 27:10 Why Air Sampling Isn't Enough 35:25 The Biggest Mold Remediation Mistakes 44:40 Healthy Homes Start with Better Building 52:18 Cleaning Beyond the Mold 1:02:10 Mold Misinformation Online 1:16:50 The Dust Test Conversation 1:26:15 The Emotional Toll of Chronic Illness 1:36:40 Lessons from Hollywood 1:42:35 Rapid Fire Questions 1:45:40 AI, Technology & Health 1:48:15 Where to Find Ali ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Ali Moresco is a healthcare communications strategist, patient advocate, and entrepreneur working at the intersection of media, medicine, and community impact.

    NBS #138: The Two Tests Every Mold Patient Should Know About

    Send us Fan Mail What if the reason you still don't feel well isn't just your body... but the place you spend the most time? In this episode of Never Been Sicker, Michael Rubino sits down with functional medicine physician Kurt N. Woeller, DO, FMAPS to discuss why environmental exposures, especially mold and mycotoxins, are so often overlooked in medicine. Together, they explore why many patients continue searching for answers while an important piece of the puzzle is never investigated. Dr. Woeller explains why symptoms like fatigue, brain fog, headaches, poor sleep, digestive issues, allergies, and chronic inflammation can persist when environmental exposure isn't addressed. He also shares why testing both the home and the body creates a much clearer picture than either one alone. The conversation covers real patient stories, common mistakes people make when they suspect mold, and why removing ongoing exposure is often one of the most important steps toward recovery. Whether you're struggling with chronic illness, supporting a loved one, or simply want to understand how your environment impacts your health, this episode offers practical insight into a topic more physicians are beginning to recognize. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- CHAPTERS: 00:00 Introduction 00:19 Meet Dr. Kurt Woeller 01:08 Why mold is missed in medicine 03:19 Biggest mistakes people make after mold exposure 05:08 Can hidden mold make you sick? 06:43 Why environmental medicine matters 08:18 Why you can't heal while ongoing exposure continues 09:29 Why testing the body alone isn't enough 12:07 Why testing the home alone isn't enough 14:06 How combining both tests changes treatment 16:14 Why comprehensive testing matters 18:17 One camera angle isn't enough 20:41 Test, don't guess 22:52 How targeted testing can save time and money 28:58 Why data still needs clinical guidance 29:28 Real patient success story 36:01 Why people normalize feeling sick 39:08 Common symptoms of mold exposure 45:48 Rapid-fire questions 48:23 Where to find Dr. Kurt Woeller 50:07 Closing thoughts ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 🔵 Get the bundle here: https://www.homecleanse.com/product/mycotox-profile-the-dust-test/ Kurt N.
