Melissa Olson, ND, recently shared insights during a DesBio webinar on two significant immune challenges: Lyme disease and Epstein-Barr virus (EBV). The discussion underlined the shared attributes, unique differences, and some suggested protocols for these conditions.  Both Lyme disease and EBV are complex conditions with wide-ranging impacts on a person’s health. DesBio’s range of products may serve as part of a comprehensive protocol to support individuals dealing with these conditions.  

Histamine is a chemical compound that is found naturally in certain foods and in the cells of the body. It plays a critical role in the immune system, inflammation, and communication with the brain. However, too much histamine can lead to a decrease in tolerance and cause histamine intolerance. This can happen due to genetic or simple impairment of enzymes that break down histamine. Histamine intolerance is commonly found in people with gastrointestinal conditions like IBS, celiac, and SIBO.

Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) is a neurodevelopmental disorder that affects social interaction, communication, and behavior. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), about 1 in 36 children has been identified with ASD. In addition, other mental health conditions such as anxiety, ADHD, and depression are also prevalent among children.

Parasites are organisms that live off or on a host, and they feed on or at the expense of the host. They can be classified into three categories, which are protozoa, helminths, and ectoparasites. Protozoa, which are one-celled organisms, can invade any single cell in the body, while helminths, which are multicellular, can live on or inside the body, such as in the gastrointestinal tract or blood. Ectoparasites live on the surface of the host or feed off the skin, and they can be transmitted by ticks, fleas, lice, mites, or other biting insects.

Fatigue is a common health concern that affects many people worldwide. While there are many factors that can contribute to fatigue, one root cause that is often overlooked is exposure to mold and mycotoxins.

Mold exposure can cause a variety of health issues ranging from allergies to serious infections.

If you suspect that you or your patients have been exposed to mold, it is important to address the underlying issue, as mold can have serious health implications. One way to address mold exposure is by using Series Therapy symptom relief kits.

Mitochondria and mold may seem like two unrelated topics, but they are actually closely linked. Some species of mold can produce mycotoxins, which can damage mitochondria and interfere with other cellular processes. This can lead to a range of health problems, from allergic reactions and respiratory issues to infections and even toxic reactions. It’s important to take steps to prevent mold growth in your home or workplace and to be aware of the potential health risks associated with mycotoxins.
