Key Quotes

· “In my opinion everybody needs to be checked for mold.” (2:49)

· “You won't get well if you don't realize that you have a mold problem and you handle your mold.” (3:26)

· “Mold, if you have mold, your gut is completely trashed, so let me say that again, if you have mold, your gut is completely destroyed.” (4:22)

· “Spores are very, very resistant to many, many things.. the mold has been here way, way longer than human beings and the mold has developed survival instincts that are almost impossible to eradicate and kill. (6:33)

· “What happens when you have mold exposure? Candida runs crazy, which is yeast. Candida in your gut is on a rampage. It starts to grow and grow and grow and grow, because grows in in an environment that's very weak and doesn't have a lot of good bacteria.” (14:47)

· “So when someone comes to me, I think what are we going to do different, right? You probably went to the doctor and they do the same old freaking labs, blood labs that you've done 100 times. Well, you don't need to do it the same way. You don't need to check sodium 10 times to know that that's not the problem. You don't need to check whatever they're checking CBC or whatever. You need to do different labs to get different data.” (19:28)

· “The biggest difference between a yeast and bacteria is the yeast has a nucleus and bacteria does not.” (24:07)

· “So then is the mold in the current situation or is it a past marker and some of the stuff you don't really know. You got to kind of treat and figure.” (29:11)
