Know the Cause | Mold Free Living

Why is inhaling mold in your indoor environment for a prolonged amount of time so dangerous? Well, for one, your sinus sits right in front of your brain, and provides a direct avenue to both the brain and the bloodstream. But, if you are someone who likes visual proof and medical explanations of this sort of thing, I have a show for you.

This latest clip from Know the Cause features Dr. Dennis, and discusses a story about mold in the human sinus. Dr. Dennis talks about two patients with mold in their sinuses. Their particular cases were so groundbreaking, in terms of mold illness studies, that he later published a paper on them with the late Dr. Jack Thrasher.

The two, very sick female patients had both been living in their moldy homes, had many different symptoms, not limited to sinusitis, and were not responding to the maximum sinus and body protocol treatments for the mold.

Here is the video:

Erin Porter is inspiring. She is the founder of EatPrayGetWell, a blog she started to combine her passions for the healing powers of proper diet and good food, photography, and prayer, with her personal triumph over chronic disease caused by mold.

Erin battled with chronic disease for over 25 years, enduring several unnecessary surgeries, and over 100 courses of antibiotics, and has dedicated her life to encouraging people to find out the root cause of their illness. Erin also teaches people how to eat a healthy diet to promote healing. Eat, Pray, Get Well not only includes recipes and health tips, but most recipes come with an encouraging or positive story. In her own words, Erin says, “I am interested in helping people heal not just physically but emotionally as well.”

A longer version of her story can be found here on her website.

An integral part of Erin’s journey to health occurred when she found Doug Kaufmann’s television program Know the Cause. The program forced her to look at her living environments and diet as sources of her chronic illness–Erin had lived in moldy environments and was addicted to sugar at the time. She had never considered fungus as a possible culprit for her sinus infections. Once she made the “fungus link,” the discovery was life changing.

The now healthy, happy, and vibrant Erin Porter shares her knowledge of food and its power to heal on her blog EatPrayGetWell.

Thankfully, armed with this new information, Erin found a ENT who understood fungal sinusitis, completed Phase 1 of Doug Kaufmann’s recommend diet (then eventually phase II), and incorporated anti-fungals into her routine. Her world transformed!

Recently, Erin was able to meet Doug Kaufmann and to appear on his show. Here is a link to the podcast from that interview.

I hope you find it both inspirational and informative. I would also recommend checking out Erin’s blog and the Know the Cause website. For those of us concerned with mold, both are wonderful resources.
