Today we are excited to announce that we have launched Mycotoxin testing. Mycotoxins are toxins released by thousands of mold species. The new testing evaluates 16 of the most common pathogenic mycotoxins providing insights into the potential toxic mold burden of patients.
“The unfortunate truth is that we are exposed to hundreds of toxins daily, many of which are from molds located within our own homes, places of work, and even the foods we eat” states Jack Frausing, US BioTek’s Chief Executive Officer. “For some, they may have no symptoms from mycotoxin exposure, but for others, these exposures can have major consequences on their health”.
Mycotoxins are known to disrupt the mitochondrial functions within the human body leading to symptoms like headaches, chronic fatigue, and brain fog, but can also lead to more serious health conditions such as cancer and osteoarthritis. The health impacts of mold toxicity make mycotoxin testing imperative for those struggling with chronic symptoms.
