Low Mold Foods

Mold illness from toxic levels of mold build-up in the body requires a 2 way treatment plan. You must remove all mold from your environment to prevent constant re-exposure. Mold toxicity is often one of the causes of Morgellons Disease Symptoms.

You can read more about Dr. Jill's experience and the techniques she used to get mold out of her home using the links below:

The next step in treating mold illness is giving your body the support it needs to detoxify naturally. Following a low-mold diet is a powerful way to lend your body a helping hand. 

Why a Low-Mold Diet?

    1. It prevents mycotoxins from multiplying in your body systems by limiting contaminated food and the sources that feed them.
    2. It aids in reversing nutrient deficiencies and imbalances.
    3. It helps bring your immune functions back and minimizes inflammation.  
    4. It limits exposure to processed foods(often filled with gluten) that feed candida and yeast.

Getting Started

To maintain a low mold lifestyle you should avoid foods with additives at all costs. Keep your diet simple and NATURAL. Stay away from processed foods. Whenever possible use fresh, raw ingredients only. Avoid pre-packaged foods with a long expiration date.

Limit consumption of foods with added sugar. Stick to natural sources of sugar. For example, instead of drinking bottled, concentrated fruit juice... try juicing fresh produce yourself.

When it comes to dried fruits and vegetables, it's best to stay clear. These types of foods are high-mold foods. Try fresh chopped fruits & vegetables instead. 

Avoid packaged, pre-cooked, and encased meats that are loaded with unhealthy preservatives to keep them fresh longer. Instead of buying hotdogs or sausage links... try organic, grass-fed meats. It's best to avoid grain-fed meat sources because grains often contain gluten and this feeds mold growth.

Always avoid natural sources of mold known as fungi. These foods increase the amounts of mold in the body. This includes foods like mushrooms. Of course, you'll also need to avoid gluten and wheat as this fuels mold growth.

Avoid the following foods completely:

  • processed foods with additives & unnatural sugars
  • gluten-containing foods like wheat bread and wheat pasta
  • Edible Fungi like mushrooms & truffles
  • Foods near or past the expiration date
  • grain fed or smoked meats
