Mycotoxin and Mold Testing

Our Mycotoxins test is a urine-based assay for 31 of the most common mycotoxins produced by molds to which humans are exposed. This test is measured on mass spectrometry, using Vibrant’s patent-pending proprietary technology, to produce the most accurate and clinically relevant assessment of difficult-to-detect toxins that can cause serious disease in humans. This test is able to detect mycotoxins, small molecules, as small as 5 pcg, which greatly expands the number of available mycotoxins detected.

Individuals most at risk for mycotoxin exposure include those who live or work in older buildings, those who have known exposure to water-damaged buildings, and those with impaired immune responses or higher levels of oxidative stress.

Mycotoxins complicate human health in a number of ways and their presence in the human body can lead to a number of serious health concerns, including autoimmune disease and cancer.

We’ve found that there may be higher incidence of autoimmune or neurological symptoms with patients experiencing mycotoxin toxicity. An additional screening for Hashimoto’s thyroiditis, connective tissue disorders, celiac disease, and neurological autoimmunity along with mycotoxin testing might be needed for some.

Treatment of mycotoxin exposure should include a holistic approach to eradicate the mold from the individual, thorough and professional removal of mold from environmental sources, as well as continued testing to monitor reductions in mycotoxin levels post-intervention.

Due to the common co-occurrence of Lyme and mycotoxin exposure from depressed immunity in affected individuals, as well as symptom overlap between tickborne diseases and mycotoxins, consider running the Tickborne Diseases panel along with the Mycotoxins test, which can be added on at your request.

As of July 2023 this panel is $360 USD + $175 review fee – You will also be required to have a review session with Holly – which is processed at time of purchase. The review fee is charged regardless of having a session with the Holly or not.
