In this Episode of The Human Upgrade™...

Dr. Heyman is a guy with impeccable credentials who has been studying mold for years. He studies what it does your hormones, your genes, your brain, and why it is making you so tired. We’ve had other people on the show who talk about toxic mold (also check out the Moldy Movie) and how it is one of the big things contributing to Alzheimer’s disease, cancer, heart disease and many other conditions.

Mold can be a big factor in your life, whether you are specifically dealing with fibromyalgia, chronic fatigue or Lyme disease and we are going to find out what to do about it in the interview today with Dr. Andy Heyman.

"When we saw the differences in the brain scan between Lyme and mold, we asked the question why? That led us to taking the deep dive down to people's genes and that's where we found the magic"
