#88 Could Hidden Mold Exposure Affect Your Fertility? with Dr. Ann-Marie Barter, DC

In episode 88, I interview chiropractic physician, Dr. Ann Barter, about mold exposure and it’s potential impact on health and fertility. Although many people have heard that encountering certain types of mold can be harmful, few people realize just how common mold exposure really is and all the ways it can disrupt health. Many of us have been unknowingly exposed to mold in water-damaged buildings, our homes, and even our food supply. Unfortunately, mold exposure isn’t always obvious and the health symptoms it can cause are wide-ranging and frequently confused with other conditions. The reason we’re talking about mold on a fertility podcast is that it can be a hidden source of inflammation and stress on the body, leading to immune system dysfunction and hormone imbalances that can make it very difficult to conceive. Thankfully, it is absolutely possible to test for and remediate mold issues in your environment, as well as heal from mold illness if you’ve been exposed and experienced negative health effects! 

In this episode, you’ll learn about:

• How mold exposure can impact health and fertility
• Some of the most common symptoms that might point toward mold exposure and illness
• The primary routes of exposure to mold in our environment
• Why some people react very strongly to mold while others seem to experience no ill effects
• Some of the options for testing for mold in our external environments as well as in our bodies
• The basic elements of an effective healing protocol for mold illness
