5. Digestive Problems
When the body has to deal with removing stubborn mold spores, immune function diminishes, allowing for the spread of infection into the digestive tract as well. As a result, the digestive system may have a tough time removing biological waste. This lack of digestive capacity leads to digestive problems which can cause bouts of vomiting, diarrhea, and in some cases, internal bleeding in the intestinal wall.
If you notice any dark or foul-smelling stools, you may be suffering from digestive issues as a result of severe mold mycotoxin exposure. If left untreated, the infection may affect the liver. The liver is the body’s primary filter, and in a weakened state, it may not be able to produce enough bile to remove toxins from the bloodstream.
This lack of function and increase in toxins eventually results in liver disease that could become life-threatening. If you notice your skin or the whites of your eyes turning yellow, it’s a sign of liver distress requiring immediate medical treatment.
