Mastering Mold Recovery: A Practitioner’s Guide to Comprehensive Care
Mold exposure is more common than most people realize—affecting over 50% of homes.
Mold and mycotoxins are among the most prevalent, overlooked, and destructive pathogens affecting patients today. With over 50% of homes experiencing mold or dampness issues and 90% of toxin labs showing mycotoxin exposure, the need for comprehensive clinical guidance has never been greater.
DesBio practitioners are uniquely positioned to help patients navigate mold recovery through our Power of Three approach—addressing the mental-emotional, energetic, and physical dimensions of health for truly transformational outcomes.
Understanding the Scope of Mold Toxicity
Mold can grow in unexpected places—from garages to HVAC systems to hidden wall cavities.
The widespread nature of mold exposure demands our attention as practitioners:
- Over 50% of all homes have issues with mold or dampness
- Mold can grow within 24-48 hours of a leak
- 25% of the population is genetically more susceptible to mold toxicity
- Not all mold is visible—it can be hiding in walls, HVAC systems, and other unseen areas
- Mold suppresses the immune system, allowing other pathogens to flourish
The Clinical Challenge
Mold toxicity presents with diverse symptoms that often masquerade as other conditions:
- Fatigue, brain fog, and cognitive issues
- Joint pain and chronic inflammation
- Hormonal imbalances, especially Hashimoto’s thyroiditis
- Digestive issues including SIBO and food intolerances
- Chronic sinus infections and respiratory symptoms
- Reactivation of past viruses like EBV and HSV
The Power of Three: DesBio’s Comprehensive Approach
Traditional mold protocols no longer suffice. DesBio’s Power of Three approach recognizes that true healing must address all dimensions of health—mental-emotional, energetic, and physical. This is especially crucial in mold recovery, where symptoms manifest across all three domains.
Clinical Pearl
The body in immediate survival mode is NOT worrying about infections, toxins, or detoxification. When the nervous system is out of balance, chronic illness occurs. You must support the nervous system alongside detox—or treatment progress will stall.
Testing the Theory: Start Here
Before implementing a full protocol, consider testing with these foundational products:
If patients show improvement with these products, it’s a strong indicator that mold is a significant factor requiring comprehensive support.
Aspergillus Niger – One of many mold species that can affect health
Stachybotrys chartarum – The infamous “black mold”
The 5-Step Mold Detox Protocol
Step 1: Open Drainage & Detox Pathways
Comprehensive Homeopathic Detox & Drainage Kit is imperative. This six-component system ensures elimination pathways are open—bowels, urination, lymph drainage, and sweating.
Components include:
- CerebroMax (Brain Support)
- SpinalMax (CNS Support)
- Matrix Support
- Detox I (Liver Support)
- Detox II (Kidney Support)
- Detox III (Lymph & Skin Support)
Take over 7 days before starting series therapy, then continue throughout the protocol. Add additional organ-specific drainers based on patient symptoms.
Step 2: Reduce Environmental Exposure
Educate patients on critical modifications:
- Eliminate high-mold foods: peanuts, cashews, oats, coffee
- Fix leaks within 24-48 hours
- Use quality air filters (Austin Air, Jaspr)
- Clean HVAC systems regularly
- Use microfiber cloths and HEPA vacuums
- Critical: Do NOT use bleach on mold—it makes the problem worse
Step 3: Comprehensive Mold SSR Protocol
Incorporating the Power of Three philosophy, this protocol addresses all dimensions of healing:
Mental-Emotional Support
Choose remedies based on predominant symptoms. The nervous system must be supported alongside detox:
- PTS/Stress Remedy: Nervous system balance
- Anxious: Relieves anxiousness and worry
- Perfect Sleep: Supports restful sleep
- Elevate: Mood support
- Grief: Emotional processing
- HPAxis: HPA axis support
- Motivation: Energy and drive
Energetic Support
Mold Phase 1 SSR Kit: DesBio’s Series Symptom Relief approach using increasing homeopathic potencies to address specific pathogens.
Protocol:

- Phase 2 Kit: Then take in descending order (10-1) every third day during second month
Based on homeopathic “like cures like” theory, you do not need to match specific lab-identified mold toxins with exact species in the kit.
Products Needed:
- Mold Phase 1 SSR Kit (for ascending order)
- Mold Phase 2 SSR Kit (for descending order)
For comprehensive support: MOLD:SSR provides additional targeted relief

The Fungal Overgrowth Connection
Mold exposure commonly triggers candida overgrowth. Watch for these candida-specific symptoms:
Common Candida Symptoms
- Chronic bloating, gas, constipation, or diarrhea
- Chronic SIBO and IBS

- Oral thrush
- Brain fog and poor concentration
- Strong sugar and carb cravings

Dietary Guidelines for Mold Recovery
Foods to Avoid
- Peanuts and cashews
- Oats
- High-mold coffee varieties
- High-sugar foods
- Refined carbohydrates
Foods to Embrace
- Whole, fresh foods
- Lean proteins
- Non-starchy vegetables
- Low-sugar fruits (in moderation)
- Anti-inflammatory foods
Monitoring Patient Progress
Regular follow-ups are crucial. Monitor your patients’ progress across all three dimensions of health and be prepared to adjust protocols as needed.
Track These Key Indicators
- Changes in mood and energy levels
- Physical symptom improvements
- Herxheimer (die-off) reactions
- Environmental exposure changes
- Laboratory mycotoxin testing (if applicable)
Addressing Co-Existing Conditions
Mold often coexists with other pathogens and creates an environment where they flourish. Consider testing and supporting for:
- Candida and other fungal overgrowths
- Lyme disease and co-infections
- Epstein-Barr Virus and other reactivated viruses
- Parasites
- Heavy metals
- SIBO and gut dysbiosis
