Mold and Dementia

With neurodegenerative conditions, like Alzheimer’s, Parkinson’s, and Multiple Sclerosis, doctors are still missing mold.

Exposure to a water-damaged building can expose you to mold toxins, called mycotoxins, which can affect your brain.

The amyloid peptides seen with Alzheimer’s make very good sponges for mycotoxins.

If you or someone you love is struggling with dementia, make sure you’ve ruled out mold and exposure to a water-damaged building.
