Transcript
Welcome to the VP Life Podcast, the show where we bring you actionable
Speaker:health advice from leading minds.
Speaker:I'm your host, Rob, and my guest today is Dr. Andrew Campbell, an immunologist
Speaker:and toxicologist who's been successfully treating mold and mycotoxin illness using
Speaker:a very specific protocol he's developed.
Speaker:Expect to learn what mold illness really is and how it develops in the body.
Speaker:Why most modern treatment protocols don't work.
Speaker:And the exact protocol Dr. Campbell uses in his practice.
Speaker:Now onto the conversation with Dr. Andrew Campbell.
Speaker:Good day, Dr. Campbell, and thank you for joining us for what I feel
Speaker:is going to be a very important discussion for a number of people.
Speaker:I've been following you for a while now and must admit, I do feel you have more of
Speaker:an understanding of this topic than most.
Speaker:For those who aren't familiar with you and your work, would
Speaker:you mind giving us a quick introduction, who you are, et cetera?
Speaker:So I'm a clinical immunologist and a toxicologist.
Speaker:Um, I've, uh, seen about seven well over 17,000 patients that
Speaker:I've treated successfully for problems with molds and my toxins.
Speaker:I've published over a hundred articles.
Speaker:I've lectured at six medical schools, including Oxford.
Speaker:Speak about 10 to 15 times a year at major medical conferences, lecture at them
Speaker:on this subject of molds and mycotoxins that how to correctly diagnose it, how
Speaker:to correctly treat it, because there's a lot of misinformation on the internet.
Speaker:Um, whereas I realized specifically on, on medical and scientific
Speaker:evidence, not on um, opinions.
Speaker:Th thanks for that.
Speaker:It's always great to get a bit of a backstory.
Speaker:Um, I believe you'll be at the A four M conference later on, uh, this month.
Speaker:Is that correct?
Speaker:Or is that Yes, that's correct.
Speaker:Yeah.
Speaker:No, that's, that's an amazing place to, uh, gather information.
Speaker:Um, right.
Speaker:Let's dig into it.
Speaker:Um, for our listeners, aren't we, would you mind mind ju just giving us a bit of
Speaker:a brief rundown of what mold and mycotoxin illness is, um, and then we can sort of
Speaker:maybe dig a bit deeper into it after that?
Speaker:Sure.
Speaker:Um, molds are part of the planet.
Speaker:They're everywhere on the planet, but there's only, um, about 20 that
Speaker:affect human beings, and that's when they're growing in an indoor
Speaker:space out there in the open space, forest, woods, et cetera, oceans,
Speaker:deserts, there's millions of species.
Speaker:But, and for humans only those 20.
Speaker:And what happens is they're, they can be in a home.
Speaker:They're not doing anything.
Speaker:It's like the seeds you purchase in a store to grow a plant.
Speaker:You put it into.
Speaker:Uh, something and you add some soil and then some water, and then
Speaker:soon enough something sprouts out.
Speaker:Well, they're the same way.
Speaker:If they get wet and stay wet, molds get wet and stay wet for 24 to 4, 8, 8
Speaker:hours, they have to be wet, not humid, and they start what is called spoilating.
Speaker:In other words, just like plants make seeds, molds make spores, and these spores
Speaker:then get spread and carry with them.
Speaker:A key on a key chain mycotoxins.
Speaker:And one mold can make several mycotoxins, and one mycotoxin can
Speaker:come from several different molds.
Speaker:Now, when they get into the indoor space because you had a leak,
Speaker:because if something happened, um, et cetera, uh, you start breathing
Speaker:these things into your body.
Speaker:Mold.
Speaker:Your human hair is a hundred micron stick.
Speaker:Mold spores are two to four
Speaker:microns that they carry are 0.1 micron.
Speaker:The.
Speaker:Two to four microns.
Speaker:They go to the deepest part of your lungs and your sinuses, and
Speaker:they cross right through because they're so small into the blood.
Speaker:And the first place well mycotoxins attack or go to is the brain, and that's where
Speaker:you get the fatigue, the brain fog cetera.
Speaker:Then they also spread to the gastrointestinal tract and.
Speaker:So that's a very basic overview of mycotoxins.
Speaker:Now, I will tell you that I'm the editor in chief for five medical journals,
Speaker:so I get a lot of journals to read, submissions to read, and there's a lot of.
Speaker:Discussion in the scientific and the medical world about climate change and how
Speaker:it's affecting us because everything from public buildings to schools, to homes, et
Speaker:cetera, are getting more water intrusion.
Speaker:Uh, from these, from the climate change and it's affecting
Speaker:people more and more and more.
Speaker:The, the scientific American on its on its cover page said the next pandemic
Speaker:is gonna be molds and mycotoxins.
Speaker:This being sick building syndrome.
Speaker:Is that correct?
Speaker:Sick building syndrome is an old term from the 1980s because people who worked in, in
Speaker:a building and, and it was contaminated.
Speaker:By molds and mycotoxins would, would get ill.
Speaker:So it's not really in use much more, but that's where that term comes from, that
Speaker:they would feel ill in an indoor place.
Speaker:It could be home, it could be the workplace, it could be the gym, it could
Speaker:be the school dormitory, et cetera.
Speaker:And that's, uh, having watched some of your content, that is
Speaker:where you sort of utilize the added sort of detect, remove, repair.
Speaker:Is that correct?
Speaker:When it comes to treating these issues
Speaker:correct.
Speaker:The first step in any of this is to get rid of the mold.
Speaker:If you try to treat yourself or through a doctor or anything, as long
Speaker:as you continually expose to, to mold spores and their microtoxins, no one
Speaker:can get well, it's, it's a toxin.
Speaker:Uh, toxins are molecules, so mycotoxins are molecules, just
Speaker:like mercury is a molecule.
Speaker:If you're continuing exposed to a toxin, you continually
Speaker:remain ill and chronically ill
Speaker:of, of course.
Speaker:Um, I suppose for years Lyme disease has always been seen
Speaker:as the quote unquote, great.
Speaker:Great.
Speaker:Excuse me.
Speaker:Great masquerader.
Speaker:But it seems that Lyme, um, excuse me again, mycotoxins, that may
Speaker:actually be more the culprit in this case than anything else.
Speaker:So in my mind, this begs a question, has mold seemingly become more prevalent
Speaker:in recent, in recent years, or we have, we do you think we've just become more
Speaker:aware of it as a society in general, sort of the advent of the internet and such.
Speaker:If you open the Bible to Leviticus chapter 14, which was from ancient
Speaker:times, Moses, that's where it's first mentioned, um, about what to
Speaker:do about it if it's in your dwelling.
Speaker:So it's been around us, but we're becoming more aware.
Speaker:First studies were really.
Speaker:Published in the 1980s, but there's a publication from the 18 hundreds
Speaker:where a family got sick in Prague, Czechoslovakia, and the doctor couldn't
Speaker:figure out why husband, wife, and kids were children were all ill, all presenting
Speaker:with basically the same symptoms.
Speaker:He went to their home, peeled back the wallpaper, and was covered with
Speaker:a mold and it was, and he looked at it and had it analyzed, et cetera.
Speaker:Uh, with what was available at the time, and it was, so this is from
Speaker:the 18 hundreds, but really it's since the nine, late 1980s that it's
Speaker:become evident that it's a, a more and more of a worldwide problem.
Speaker:Fair enough.
Speaker:And it appears that these, uh, that mold illness can be identified
Speaker:as the root cause of many pathologies and disease states.
Speaker:Do you think it's a bit of a, a reductionist view on over
Speaker:simplification to say that mold is causing a great deal of chronic
Speaker:health problems generally, that we.
Speaker:Uh, struggle with as a society today.
Speaker:I, I know it's kind of a broad question, but maybe if we were to go over a few
Speaker:specific diseases or, or pathologies, things like, uh, Alzheimer's and
Speaker:MS for example, do you think that these diseases have their root cause
Speaker:causes, or at least some component there of, uh, in with mycotoxins?
Speaker:Yes.
Speaker:You mentioned great masquerader, which is what the World Health
Speaker:Organization calls mycotoxins.
Speaker:They say it, Mike.
Speaker:The great ma of the century Mycotoxins.
Speaker:Why?
Speaker:Because chronic disorders that are labeled chronic fatigue syndrome,
Speaker:fibromyalgia, autoimmune disorders, disorders from breast implant illness,
Speaker:uh, and then the brain illnesses, starting with autism as a child,
Speaker:multiple sclerosis as a. Middle, and then in the older age, neuro disorders,
Speaker:what is called.
Speaker:In a study done at Rutgers University School of Medicine, autism was found,
Speaker:mycotoxins was found in 70% of children who were diagnosed with autism.
Speaker:And this was a study where they took 172 children with autism and 60
Speaker:children, 60 children without autism, more or less at the same age, and none
Speaker:had mycotoxins in the normal group.
Speaker:70%. And the other one, another study from Rutger School of Medicine in New Jersey.
Speaker:And as far as, um, multiple sclerosis goes, they found that the majority
Speaker:of their patients with multiple sclerosis had indeed microtoxins.
Speaker:And, uh, they said, this is rather good news.
Speaker:Possibly get rid of it instead of just saying, you've got multiple
Speaker:sclerosis, it's a progressive degenerative disorder, et cetera.
Speaker:Then studies show on Alzheimer's, they did autopsies on patients who
Speaker:died with auto, with Alzheimer's disease and found that all.
Speaker:At autopsy, every single one of them had fungi, molds in all parts of the brain,
Speaker:including the cerebral spinal fluid.
Speaker:The same study was then repeated for, uh, immuno atrophic lateral sclerosis.
Speaker:And again, every part of the brain.
Speaker:Had molds in it, including the cerebral spinal fluid.
Speaker:As far as amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, several studies have now concluded
Speaker:that five to 10% may be genetic.
Speaker:All the rest is due to molds and mycotoxins.
Speaker:Let's take Parkinson's disease.
Speaker:We know that Parkinson's disease can be caused by.
Speaker:Exposure, long-term exposure to pesticides, especially
Speaker:in agricultural areas.
Speaker:However, now studies are pointing the finger at.
Speaker:In addition, there could be another cause for Parkinson's, and that
Speaker:is for molds and microtoxins.
Speaker:Now, I can tell you in my own practice that I have literally cured.
Speaker:Uh, and, and all, all I do is based on medical evidence.
Speaker:So it's not my method.
Speaker:I didn't invent it, I didn't develop it.
Speaker:I read about it.
Speaker:So having said that, I have, I've treated autistic kids for the
Speaker:last 25 years, and they're normal.
Speaker:They go back to normal.
Speaker:The same with ms. They come to, uh, in wheelchairs, et cetera.
Speaker:Uh, to get up from the bed, to go to the, the bathroom is
Speaker:extremely exhausting for them.
Speaker:And then a year later they're playing volleyball.
Speaker:Um, and Alzheimer are the same.
Speaker:I mean, spouses and Alzheimer is more common in women than breast cancer.
Speaker:So it's, there's a lot.
Speaker:And I've had patients brought to me with Alzheimer because they're kind of
Speaker:disoriented and although less than a year, eight months, six to eight months later.
Speaker:They're able to function much better if it's severe, if they
Speaker:were brought to me way along.
Speaker:But if we catch it early, it's reversed.
Speaker:Same with Parkinson's and same with a LS Amer Amyotrophic Collateral Sclerosis.
Speaker:That's the good news.
Speaker:Also, we know that autoimmune disorders.
Speaker:Can occur from mycotoxins because mycotoxin antibodies bind to human
Speaker:tissue and trigger autoimmunity as in multiple sclerosis.
Speaker:But that's also true of things such as psoriasis, rheumatoid arthritis.
Speaker:Um.
Speaker:Lupus, all these chronic disorders.
Speaker:Thankfully now, and there's more and more being written about and
Speaker:published in medical journals about this reversal rather than just chronic
Speaker:treatment with pharmaceutical drugs.
Speaker:That, and eventually it get just gets progressively worse now.
Speaker:Yeah, that's fascinating.
Speaker:Do you think mechanistically, at a mechanistic level, that the mold is
Speaker:essentially, uh, acting as a sort of mitochondrial toxin and disrupting
Speaker:energy balance within the cell?
Speaker:Uh, or is there more to it than that?
Speaker:Yes.
Speaker:One of the ways microtoxins do remember it's a molecule, so it's, you know, you
Speaker:can't even look at it under a microscope.
Speaker:Um, of course it goes into the cell, whether it's a brain cell, muscle
Speaker:cell, or any place in the body, and.
Speaker:Disregulates the mitochondria inside the cell.
Speaker:Well, the mitochondria is the engine of the cell.
Speaker:It's the lungs and the motor and what makes it work.
Speaker:And you make that not work.
Speaker:The cell dies, and then Microtoxin finds another cell and so forth.
Speaker:So we know the molecular mechanism and we also know the cellular mechanism.
Speaker:So this is why people develop gastrointestinal disorders such as.
Speaker:Uh, chronic gastrointestinal disorders such as Crohn's disease
Speaker:and ulcerative colitis are known to be produced by mycotoxins and
Speaker:therefore can re be reversed.
Speaker:As a matter of fact, in London, there's a group, um, of people,
Speaker:uh, with Crohn's disease and I.
Speaker:Not too long ago, and they're trying to find doctors that help them to help
Speaker:them in, in, in England, in the uk.
Speaker:That's fascinating.
Speaker:Again, I'd just like to take a, a quick jump back to towards the autism, uh,
Speaker:discussion you were just chatting about.
Speaker:I previously worked in a, a school where the aim was to treat, well, not
Speaker:treat, but to work with children who had, who had very high levels of autism
Speaker:or who were very low functioning.
Speaker:Autistics essentially.
Speaker:Um, do you think that by potentially treating them for
Speaker:mold, that a lot of these children would sort of find remission?
Speaker:Or, or do you think, especially in obviously young children who are
Speaker:very, have incredibly sort of Yeah.
Speaker:Who are very nonverbal, that a lot of that developmental, um,
Speaker:damage has already occurred.
Speaker:To put it very simply, in order to be get over the mold, whether it's from autism
Speaker:to Alzheimer and anything in between, it's four basic steps, and the first
Speaker:one is the first rule of toxicology.
Speaker:Get the patient away from the toxin or the toxin away patient.
Speaker:Then the second rule is you have to take an antifungal.
Speaker:Why?
Speaker:Because you've gotta kill the small spores that are killing the mycotoxins.
Speaker:So this is a medication, the generic is known as Itraconazole, and you take it
Speaker:at for about six months in most cases.
Speaker:The third is eight specific supplements and vitamins.
Speaker:Examples of these would be magnesium.
Speaker:I wouldn't say we're the general population is deficient in magnesium, but
Speaker:many, although many are, but the, I would say many are insufficient in magnesium.
Speaker:Remember, our ancestors drank water from wells.
Speaker:Wells had all kinds of minerals.
Speaker:The water had all kinds of minerals.
Speaker:We now drink water from plastic containers, and it's purified.
Speaker:So that's one example.
Speaker:Another example is vitamin D three in studies done dur after, right
Speaker:after the pandemic we went through just a handful of years ago.
Speaker:They looked at why do some, did some countries have much more
Speaker:deaths than other countries and they did 22 different countries.
Speaker:The one common factor in, in those that.
Speaker:More deaths than any than other countries was deficiency and vitamin
Speaker:D three, mostly because we spend about 90% of our time indoors nowadays.
Speaker:Um, another example is for, um, the gut, um, Dr. Simon cutting
Speaker:at running university and where in did some did studies on.
Speaker:Uh, probiotics, and these are usually lactobacilli and bifidobacterium
Speaker:and found that more than 90% of them die in the stomach from the
Speaker:acidity, the pH in the stomach.
Speaker:He called it dead bacteria therapy.
Speaker:And then he looked for what does work?
Speaker:What does.
Speaker:To the deeper into the gut and create help the microbiome.
Speaker:And these were spore forming basi.
Speaker:So if you're taking a probiotic, the common ones, it's not gonna help you.
Speaker:Whereas if you take the right kind.
Speaker:It will help you.
Speaker:So that's the, the study, several of them that have shown that fact
Speaker:that was first initiated by Dr.
Speaker:Cutting.
Speaker:And then as a, a simple example, things like melatonin.
Speaker:People think melatonin is for sleep.
Speaker:Well, studies done at the University of Texas San Antonio branch showed
Speaker:that melatonin actually helps the brain remove brain cells.
Speaker:Certain cells in the brain remove toxins.
Speaker:Whether these toxins be, um, pharmaceutical drugs.
Speaker:Or they be what we call street drugs or any other kind of toxins, they
Speaker:help remove them from the brain.
Speaker:So yes, you may sleep better, but mainly it's given to help clean out toxins.
Speaker:And these are just a few examples and there's eight of 'em in total.
Speaker:Last of the four is the.
Speaker:Your what?
Speaker:What's your nutrition?
Speaker:Nutrition plays an essential role in human health.
Speaker:We all know that.
Speaker:And the nutrition has to be an anti-inflammatory, low
Speaker:histamine nutritional diet.
Speaker:So, and, and.
Speaker:People can read about that, just about anywhere on how to
Speaker:apply those in their lives.
Speaker:So those are the four basic steps.
Speaker:And those will, and these are all from the medical literature.
Speaker:They're not developed by Dr. Campbell's uh, uh, secret formula, and it's not
Speaker:being sold on my website and this week only for 20% discounting those things.
Speaker:Of
Speaker:course,
Speaker:it's from the medical literature and textbooks, et cetera.
Speaker:That's amazing.
Speaker:Thank you for that.
Speaker:Um.
Speaker:I'll definitely come back to the question about diet shortly 'cause
Speaker:that's something I'd like to take a, a bit of a deeper dive into.
Speaker:Um, but if we would, just to take a step back quickly, I'd just like to
Speaker:touch again on this sort of, this link potentially between mold, lime and sirs.
Speaker:Um, sirs, obviously for the listener being, um, uh, chronic inflammatory
Speaker:response syndrome and there's obviously qualitative uming and ing
Speaker:as to whether it's, uh, a legitimate.
Speaker:Um, issue in, in the population, but for the sake of this conversation,
Speaker:we'll just say that it is.
Speaker:But everybody who seems to sort of contract lime then ends up with mold
Speaker:and subsequently sirs, um, which I just think is a fascinating, uh, a link.
Speaker:Does that sort of speak to the fact that people who have got mold, uh, issues.
Speaker:Who have, who get Lyme, have already got mold issues and that the, the immune
Speaker:system then becomes compromised and, and allows the mold to become sort of more
Speaker:prevalent or more ap prevalent problem.
Speaker:Yes, I can address that first, the most.
Speaker:A, the studies published in the journal toxin mm-hmm.
Speaker:In November, uh, of 2022, just two years ago, looked at what is the best test for.
Speaker:Microtoxins, they looked at the two different methods.
Speaker:One is urine and the second is serum blood serum.
Speaker:They said the urine test is very inaccurate because really you should do
Speaker:it six times a day to really find out.
Speaker:And then on top of that, it's based on creatinine.
Speaker:And creatinine differs from what you.
Speaker:You walked or sat most of the day, uh, whether you're female
Speaker:or male, and what is your age?
Speaker:So they said it's not an accurate test at all and it measures only what's
Speaker:left the body, not what is in the body.
Speaker:Then they went on to, to look at the antibody testing for mycotoxins
Speaker:from blood serum, and they concluded it was the most accurate specific
Speaker:test available for mycotoxins.
Speaker:The issue here in that blood test, if you have antibodies to mycotoxins
Speaker:in your body, you'll test positive because of cross reactivity for viruses,
Speaker:Epstein-Barr, cytomegalovirus, HHSV six, and depending on which laboratory you use.
Speaker:Your line will turn positive as well.
Speaker:Although you don't have Epstein Bar, C-M-V-H-H-S-V six or Lyme,
Speaker:the test will turn positive.
Speaker:And unfortunately, there's a lot of people out there who look at a, a, a piece of
Speaker:paper and they say, oh, it shows positive.
Speaker:Therefore I'm gonna treat this.
Speaker:Well, either you treat the patient or you treat a PA piece of paper lab test.
Speaker:Well, Lyme has certain specific symptoms, and then on examination of the
Speaker:person, it has certain specific signs.
Speaker:But no, I'm gonna go by what the piece of paper says.
Speaker:And then chronic antibiotic therapy for months and sometimes often years.
Speaker:And the patient still is not well.
Speaker:So I'm gonna give you and your listeners a big secret.
Speaker:If you have the correct diagnosis and the correct treatment, the patient becomes
Speaker:cured and is no longer chronically ill.
Speaker:The other side of that same coin is if you have the wrong diagnosis.
Speaker:Or the wrong treatment.
Speaker:The patient continues chronically ill.
Speaker:I know that's logic, but sometimes it's good to state the logic because it gets
Speaker:lost in the chatter of the internet.
Speaker:So insofar as Lyme, there are, there was a big study done in Germany by
Speaker:all the Lyme doctors and several.
Speaker:Public groups who suffered from Lyme, they came up with four specific areas.
Speaker:What are the signs of Lyme?
Speaker:What is found on examination?
Speaker:What is the most accurate blood tests and what is the best treatment?
Speaker:They then sent that to all the heads of the medical specialties in Germany,
Speaker:cardiology, obstetrics, pediatrics, infectious disease, et cetera.
Speaker:And when that whole consensus was complete, they sent that to the Austrians
Speaker:and they asked them to do the same thing.
Speaker:When both the Austrian and the Germans agreed, then they decided to send it
Speaker:to another country, the Swiss, who made good chocolate and good watches.
Speaker:And so the Swiss looked at it, and when these three countries got together
Speaker:and came up, it was very direct.
Speaker:As is common among those people, the majority of the tests that are done.
Speaker:Armon Labs in Germany and et cetera are what they called unacceptable tests, and
Speaker:they have lists of the unacceptable tests.
Speaker:The only one that was acceptable for Europe and the United States is
Speaker:Immuno Sciences laboratory in Los Angeles, and it's a patented test and
Speaker:cost a lot less than all the others.
Speaker:The second is the treatment.
Speaker:Even when it's neuro osis, meaning it's affected the brain, the
Speaker:maximum length of treatment is three weeks, not more than that.
Speaker:And they brought forth that.
Speaker:There's many studies that looked at long-term antibiotic treatment, and the
Speaker:results of these, both from European studies and studies in the United
Speaker:States showed there's no benefit.
Speaker:From any prolonged, and what you should do is look for another cause.
Speaker:Now, I will tell you statistically, in 2023 in the United States, 5 million
Speaker:Lyme tests were ordered, and there's only about 300,000 people who really
Speaker:have Lyme per year who really get bitten.
Speaker:From biotech, the Lyme tick and, and have these problems.
Speaker:So the,
Speaker:the conclusion of these studies is that there's a lot of misinformation being
Speaker:spread about Lyme and its treatment.
Speaker:And really if your patient is not well after three weeks,
Speaker:look for some other cause.
Speaker:Now, among my publications, one study that I published was.
Speaker:Eight or 10 years ago was comparing Lyme to mycotoxins because the
Speaker:symptoms are similar if you suffer from molds and mycotoxins or if
Speaker:you, or you suffer from Lyme.
Speaker:But how do you differentiate the two?
Speaker:How does someone in healthcare decide it's probably this or it's probably that, and
Speaker:so I'm gonna do this test or that test.
Speaker:So the first step is make sure you do the right test.
Speaker:The right test for Lyme is immuno sciences.
Speaker:The right test for mycotoxins is the antibody test.
Speaker:So do the right test, and that helps anyone with then the treatment.
Speaker:Um, the British Journal of Medicine has a beautiful chart on the treatment for Lyme.
Speaker:What.
Speaker:How long it is, if it's affected, your joints, your brain, other parts
Speaker:of your body, which antibiotics, and if you're allergic to this
Speaker:one, this is the alternative.
Speaker:It's a wonderful chart by the British Journal of Medicine.
Speaker:So essentially, chronic Lyme is a bit of a misnomer.
Speaker:Is that correct in your view?
Speaker:That it's not really an issue?
Speaker:No.
Speaker:You know, simply put, I've treated Lyme.
Speaker:Look at the color of my hair.
Speaker:I've been treated ly for 30 some odd years.
Speaker:It's not a difficult treatment, and the patient gets well as a, as a point.
Speaker:In fact, I had a, a patient come to, brought to me by mom and
Speaker:dad, and she was 21 years old.
Speaker:She was bitten by a tick when she was 16.
Speaker:She didn't feel good, and they took her to a well-known Lyme guru.
Speaker:In New York and treated her first with oral antibiotics for six months
Speaker:and then intravenous antibiotics because the test came back positive.
Speaker:Well, yes.
Speaker:Once you have Lyme, your test will be positive according to studies
Speaker:for the next two to five years.
Speaker:Although you're healed.
Speaker:So after and then she started, she started, when she turned, uh,
Speaker:19 or 18, she started university.
Speaker:She had to stop after three months because she was too fatigued.
Speaker:She couldn't think clearly.
Speaker:She had brain fog, joint aches and pains, gastrointestinal issues, um, et cetera.
Speaker:So finally they brought her to me.
Speaker:I did the mycotoxin antibody blood, te blood serum test, and she lit up
Speaker:like a Christmas tree because this is the season of course, and of course,
Speaker:quit the Lyme treated her for that.
Speaker:A month later, one month after so many years, she started feeling
Speaker:better and she came, mom and dad and the daughter came to see me.
Speaker:After two months she was feeling so much better.
Speaker:They now call me Dr. House.
Speaker:Fair enough, why not?
Speaker:Um, I'd love to sort of, with that being said, maybe jump more into
Speaker:your myTax, uh, my myTax test.
Speaker:But beforehand, maybe you could just give us a quick primer on antibody, isotope,
Speaker:isotopes, IgG, IgG, iga, iga, et cetera.
Speaker:Just so that we've got some context for the test.
Speaker:Um, being an immunologist, you're well suited for this.
Speaker:What you measure for mycotoxins in particular is
Speaker:the IgE and the IgG response.
Speaker:Now let me clarify here.
Speaker:In medicine in microbiology, we have four pathogens, bacteria, viruses,
Speaker:pathogenic fungi and parasites.
Speaker:Pathogenic fungi can be those that grow in between your toes, um, and
Speaker:some people orient on your toenails.
Speaker:Or those that you breathe in and inhale and cause what is called pulmonary ass.
Speaker:Those are all living organisms, all four viruses, et cetera.
Speaker:They're all living organisms and have cell membrane, cell walls,
Speaker:toxins, mycotoxins are not alive.
Speaker:They don't have cell walls.
Speaker:They don't have anything such as that.
Speaker:In microbiology, if you have an IgG antibody, it means that sometime in
Speaker:the past, maybe in your childhood or later, you had that disorder by that
Speaker:virus or that bacteria, whatever.
Speaker:In toxicology, it means currently you, your immune system is
Speaker:reacting to these mycotoxins, and so it indicates a toxic reaction.
Speaker:To mycotoxins when a person has IgG antibodies, IGA antibodies are
Speaker:not measured or not helpful because they're only for mucus membranes.
Speaker:An IGM is the first initial, um, antibody that's produced by the immune system, and
Speaker:usually people don't come and say, I think I'm sick for mold the first week or two.
Speaker:IGM fades away after about three weeks, and it's replaced by IgG, so the other
Speaker:antibody, IgE indicates two things.
Speaker:Current exposure, because IgE antibodies are made rapidly in a day.
Speaker:And the second one, it stim these antibodies, IgE antibodies to mycotoxin
Speaker:stimulate a certain cell in your immune system known as a mast cell.
Speaker:And this mast cell is kind of like the cell that tells the immune
Speaker:system what to do cause inflammation.
Speaker:Stop inflammation, do this, do that.
Speaker:So if you have mast cells, and where do mast cells live?
Speaker:On the body.
Speaker:In the body and the brain, the gut, in the respiratory tree, and
Speaker:in the genital urinary system, as well as just under the skin.
Speaker:So typically these patients with IgE antibodies have skin problems,
Speaker:eczema, psoriasis, et cetera.
Speaker:If it's in the genitor, if it's affected the genital urinary system,
Speaker:they'll complain of what is called interstitial cystitis, which is basically
Speaker:feels like you have a constant, your bladder infection in the gut, they
Speaker:cause sibo, um, and all, all the gut inflammatory disorders, irritable
Speaker:bowel syndrome, et cetera, et cetera.
Speaker:And of course they can cause in the lungs.
Speaker:Chronic cough, tightness of the chest, et cetera.
Speaker:Now in the respiratory part of the sinuses where we breathe things through our nose.
Speaker:Dr. Al, chairman of the Department of Ear, nose and throat surgery at
Speaker:the Mayo Clinic had 210 patients with chronic sinus problems.
Speaker:He took 'em to the operating room, removed all the stuff, cleaned out
Speaker:their sinuses, and sent the material to the laboratory to be identified
Speaker:as what is the most common cause?
Speaker:What virus, what bacteria, what?
Speaker:What is causing these 210 people to have chronic, chronic, year
Speaker:after year sinus problems?
Speaker:The result came back and it was published as 96% was fungi, in other words, molds.
Speaker:And he ally that the term chronic sinus be changed to chronic fungal sinusitis.
Speaker:So that's how all these affect.
Speaker:Our systems and cause chronic disorders.
Speaker:Fair enough.
Speaker:And then obviously the My Myco test that you're, uh, suggesting treats these
Speaker:specific, uh, excuse me, doesn't treat, but looks these specific antibodies
Speaker:to these, uh, to those 20 forms of mold you initially talked about.
Speaker:Is that correct?
Speaker:Correct.
Speaker:What, what?
Speaker:The testing on an antibody test for mycotoxins shows which of 14 you have.
Speaker:How much of each you have, so it's a what we call a quantitative.
Speaker:It gives you the quantity.
Speaker:You have this much of this metic, of this mycotoxin this, this much of this
Speaker:one, this much of this one, et cetera, which helps you know what is going on
Speaker:with this patient and therefore you.
Speaker:It helps the physician know how long, what to treat, et cetera.
Speaker:And again, it's those four points that I, we discussed earlier,
Speaker:of course.
Speaker:Yeah, no, that's, that's a great segue into, uh, just curtailing
Speaker:back into treatment slightly.
Speaker:I'd like to get your opinion on why the, uh, the traditional,
Speaker:well, up until now, the traditional views on treating mold, uh.
Speaker:Say the, the Neil Nathan and the Dr. Shoemaker protocols
Speaker:have just been so ineffective.
Speaker:Obviously, they just, for the most part, seem to focus on binders.
Speaker:Do you think binders are in anywhere effective in treating mold, or is
Speaker:it really the use, like utilizing a, a hammer to fix a watch?
Speaker:There's three studies on the use of binders for mycotoxins in humans.
Speaker:And all three say they don't work and they don't remove mycotoxins.
Speaker:And on top of that, they remove vitamins and what vital.
Speaker:Micro and macronutrients all three.
Speaker:There are no studies that show that they should be used in humans.
Speaker:There are studies showing that they work in sheep, uh, piglets, fryer, chickens.
Speaker:Rabbits, rats, mice, and other animals.
Speaker:But I'm not a veterinarian.
Speaker:I'm a medical doctor and therefore I don't treat animals.
Speaker:The shoemaker testing, there's no evidence that the majority, the, the.
Speaker:Almost all the tests in the Shoemaker diagnostic process don't have any
Speaker:basis either in medicine or in science.
Speaker:They're, and they have no studies showing anything about them as well as
Speaker:the treatment, which consists mainly of, there's several, and then of
Speaker:course there's all kinds of 20 or 30 supplements that you should be taking.
Speaker:40 to 45 emails a day, 365 days of the year from people who say, I've been
Speaker:following the Shoemaker, Neil Nathan Protocol for six months, one year,
Speaker:two years, three years, four years.
Speaker:I've spent thousands and thousands or tens of thousands,
Speaker:and I'm still chronically ill.
Speaker:Can you please help me?
Speaker:Uh, that's, yeah.
Speaker:That, that does disappoint to the fact that after a while, individuals, well,
Speaker:I suppose doctors, it's not really the job of the, the patient as it should just
Speaker:really start looking outside of the box.
Speaker:Um, I firmly believe that people are able to start getting
Speaker:well in months, not years.
Speaker:I would just like to go back again just to touch on diet specifically.
Speaker:Um, I know you mentioned, uh, removing histamines from the diet can be.
Speaker:Effecti, do you think there are any, there's any sort of signs or in your
Speaker:viewpoint any reason why people should, perhaps also who are struggling with
Speaker:MAL should also potentially look at removing other components from a diet
Speaker:such as FODMAPs or carbohydrates?
Speaker:Um.
Speaker:If the instance is right, so for example, if the mold is presenting
Speaker:potentially as, as IVS or if there's a mitochondrial issue, obviously these,
Speaker:um, diets when sort of can be tailored to support these various conditions.
Speaker:Um, reducing carbohydrates can obviously help to lower glucose, enabled ox
Speaker:status, stress, that sort of thing.
Speaker:Do you feel that there's any real place for sort of tweaking a diet or is it
Speaker:not gonna move the mini needle much
Speaker:as far as those.
Speaker:Issues are concerned.
Speaker:When I, um, first started treating this about 35 years ago, there were
Speaker:some very popular diets back then.
Speaker:One was, do a diet according to your, uh, blood type, whether you're
Speaker:A or B, or O, et cetera, et cetera.
Speaker:So that was popular for a while.
Speaker:Eventually, that faded away.
Speaker:Then there was another diet.
Speaker:And then another diet.
Speaker:And then another diet.
Speaker:So these come and go.
Speaker:I can't base my, my, what do people do when they come to see a doctor?
Speaker:A physician.
Speaker:They put something that's their most, one of their most precious things,
Speaker:their health into that person's hand.
Speaker:I cannot take risks by reading something on the internet and then applying it.
Speaker:Without having medical and scientific evidence that it actually works
Speaker:in more than that one person or those three or four people.
Speaker:I need to see that it helps really.
Speaker:And how, what is the mechanism?
Speaker:How did this really help?
Speaker:Because everything is available on the internet, but there's a lot of it that
Speaker:has no medical or scientific basis for it.
Speaker:For example, there's actually a website that says.
Speaker:Climate change proves the earth is flat.
Speaker:So there you have it.
Speaker:You know, I, and again, uh, why do people turn to me after
Speaker:they've tried everything else?
Speaker:I've never seen a patient for the first time say, I think I have a mole problem.
Speaker:Can you please help me?
Speaker:They come to me after they've seen 10, 15, 20, 25.
Speaker:Healthcare people, et cetera, and they've tried this and that
Speaker:and the other and so forth.
Speaker:They've tried herbal treatments, supplements for this, this kind of diet.
Speaker:They've tried everything.
Speaker:I had one person come see me who had shark cartilage enemas.
Speaker:Um, you know, they do everything out of desperation to feel better.
Speaker:And, and, uh, then they, they spend huge sums of money on these things.
Speaker:And then they eventually.
Speaker:End up in front of me.
Speaker:So I prefer to use something that has shown without any doubt, a that it
Speaker:works because it's been, it's even now in chapters in medical books.
Speaker:That makes perfect sense.
Speaker:Dr. Campbell, if it's okay, I'd like to ask you some, uh, some quick rapid fire
Speaker:questions that are maybe off the cuff.
Speaker:I think the first one I'd like to start with is about citric acid.
Speaker:Uh, I've recently been looking at a sort of manufacturing process, and it seems
Speaker:that it's been synthetically, uh, form, uh, created utilizing a fermentation
Speaker:process specifically in the TCA cycle and using aspergillus, niga, uh, and then a
Speaker:benign substrate, something like sucrose.
Speaker:Obviously the final product is filtered and, and then cleaned,
Speaker:but do you think that there's any.
Speaker:Potential issue with consuming something like that, or do you think there is in
Speaker:general any potential issue with consuming foods with mold on them in low levels?
Speaker:Of course,
Speaker:I have not read any studies that go such things, for example, in as far as molds
Speaker:in foods, what 39 countries have signed.
Speaker:Is an agreement, including, well including the uk uh, the eu, I mean
Speaker:all these countries, is how much mycotoxin can we have in, in food?
Speaker:For example, PE milk, 91% contains anywhere from one to four microtoxins,
Speaker:but these are in parts per billion.
Speaker:Which is easily excreted in urine by the body.
Speaker:So for example, um, I asked the scientist, I'm a visual, I don't know
Speaker:what it means to have parts per billion.
Speaker:He said, take a thousand soccer fields, cover each field with ping pong
Speaker:bowls and remove one ping pong bowl.
Speaker:And that's.
Speaker:Well, the, the body deals easily with it.
Speaker:So in foods there's no real issue.
Speaker:There are several studies that looked at foods and how much would
Speaker:you have to eat to have toxicity?
Speaker:It turns out that you would have to eat 14 pounds of rancid oatmeal at one sitting.
Speaker:I don't know if I could eat a pound of anything at one
Speaker:sitting, but that's for others.
Speaker:Or 20 slices of rancid bread at one sitting in order for you
Speaker:to be affected and not put out.
Speaker:Several studies, including some that I've published with other authors,
Speaker:other doctors have shown that the gut actually helps you get rid of toxins.
Speaker:Think about it, how many people bite their nails?
Speaker:How many people bite the tip of their pen sometimes, or the tip of their glasses?
Speaker:There is bacteria.
Speaker:There's things there on, on everything.
Speaker:How many of us are exposed?
Speaker:To chemicals because we clean our clothes with chemicals, we wash them with
Speaker:chemicals, and we put 'em next to the skin, the largest organ of the body, and
Speaker:those chemicals may be gone, but they may be a little bit of remnant on them.
Speaker:Also, how do we clean our kitchens?
Speaker:Oh, how do we wash our hands?
Speaker:What do we put upon our hair to shampoo our hair?
Speaker:If you've read of shampoo bottles, there's 20 chemicals you can't pronounce.
Speaker:Well, we're exposed constantly, but our body gets rid of those small,
Speaker:tiny amounts, so it's not an issue.
Speaker:For example, if you drink, um, Coca-Cola, Pepsi-Cola, all these fizzy, uh, sweet
Speaker:drinks, some of the sweeteners, et cetera, are made using a derivative of a mole.
Speaker:But we don't get sick from that.
Speaker:We do get sick because these drinks contain.
Speaker:Chemical preservatives, chemical sweeteners, chemical coloring, it's
Speaker:chemical flavorings, et cetera.
Speaker:So it's not a good idea to have that as part of your diet, but we, we do ingest
Speaker:almost always, either some mold remnants, but again, it's parts per billion.
Speaker:It's not enough to affect our health.
Speaker:Yeah, of course.
Speaker:So the expense of mold free coffee I've been buying is probably not necess,
Speaker:necessitated just is what you're saying?
Speaker:Yeah.
Speaker:But also the problem with binder is that all three studies that say they
Speaker:don't work, they also say they're they.
Speaker:They make it bad for you to take because you bind other things that you need.
Speaker:Yeah, of course.
Speaker:Just with regards to binders, do you think they have any place in medicine,
Speaker:obviously, uh, when somebody has potentially a high toxic load from,
Speaker:from another source, your PFASs, your forever chemicals or, or a heavy
Speaker:metal, um, do you think they have a place there potentially in helping
Speaker:to rid the body of these substances?
Speaker:Or again, are they sort of fairly ineffective?
Speaker:What helps.
Speaker:Uh, in, in toxicology, what helps the body rid itself of toxins is number
Speaker:one, stop taking the toxin, obviously.
Speaker:But aside from that, the, your nutritional component will help
Speaker:anti-inflammatory, low histamine, but also what will help is the eight specific
Speaker:nutraceuticals supplement vitamins.
Speaker:Now, a study came out a year ago, November, 2023.
Speaker:Showing that out of the 60 most popular supplements that people
Speaker:buy online, they took those 60 to a laboratory and looked at what's on
Speaker:the label and what's in the bottle.
Speaker:11% had in the bottle what it was, what was on the label.
Speaker:40% had nothing in the bottle that was on the label.
Speaker:So you.
Speaker:Cautious and careful.
Speaker:And of course I've researched this and I know which laboratories
Speaker:produce which vitamins and supplements that you should take.
Speaker:So if, and, and, you know, I'm I'm Asley reachable, uh, www Andrew Campbell md.com.
Speaker:You know, I can send a list to anyone who wants it.
Speaker:And that's why you've gotta be careful in what you even take when you go
Speaker:to a, a shop somewhere and decide you want to take some vitamin C.
Speaker:Yeah, of course.
Speaker:We'll, we'll have to chat a bit more about that or the, or the, and
Speaker:I'll, I'll have to fill you in about vitality, uh, the company we have here.
Speaker:Moving on from that, I know that you've, I, I've watched a number of
Speaker:your presentations recently actually.
Speaker:This is a pretty a, a pretty decent tack on, and, um, I've noted that you've.
Speaker:Uh, said that a lot of people who have a gliotoxin present, present
Speaker:should be careful of, uh, taking compounds like NAC or glutathione.
Speaker:Would you just mind elaborating on why that is?
Speaker:Not really, because again, I need to know, um, I usually wanna know three
Speaker:things, as much information as I can get of a particular person in a patient.
Speaker:The second thing is.
Speaker:I want the information and where can I obtain it?
Speaker:Is it from a reputable source or is it by a company?
Speaker:I'll give you for example, there's a lot of companies that push air filters.
Speaker:This air filter cleans your home and sucks out everything that's bad, okay?
Speaker:And I get solicitations from them all the time saying, would you please allow
Speaker:us to put our product on your website?
Speaker:Then I always say to them, send me your information.
Speaker:Do you have any proof?
Speaker:I never get any.
Speaker:So, um, insofar as doing anything in those areas, I need the evidence that it really
Speaker:is an issue and what can be done about that issue for that particular person.
Speaker:'cause everyone's unique and different, every, every immune
Speaker:system is u unique and different.
Speaker:Even in twins, they're different.
Speaker:So you have to know very thoroughly each individual and what is their background?
Speaker:What is their history?
Speaker:What's their age?
Speaker:What's their diet like?
Speaker:What illnesses did they have?
Speaker:Were they born by natural birth or were there cesarean?
Speaker:Because that makes a huge difference.
Speaker:All these things, you've gotta obtain this information to help people.
Speaker:Fair enough.
Speaker:Final question, Dr. Campbell.
Speaker:I just want to be sort of cognizant of your time.
Speaker:Um, I suppose just to just wrap it up, uh, quite nicely, but if you
Speaker:were to just offer our listeners just three to five sort of simple
Speaker:tips that they could, uh, utilize to start maybe improving their health.
Speaker:Maybe they have been struggling with these sort of unexplained symptoms for
Speaker:a while and they're just trying to sort of get to the root of their issues.
Speaker:Where would you.
Speaker:Point people to, in terms of a starting point, um, aside from obviously maybe,
Speaker:uh, getting a aox uh, test done,
Speaker:what would be the starting point for something someone affected by these
Speaker:chronic disease from molds and mycotoxins?
Speaker:Yes,
Speaker:the starting point is a first rule of toxicology.
Speaker:Get the patient away from the toxin or the toxin away from the patient.
Speaker:Now, that's easier to say, but where does a person look?
Speaker:How do they know what's going?
Speaker:When a person smells a musty odor, they go somewhere and they, it's a musty odor.
Speaker:The musty odor is actually volatile organic compounds made by molds.
Speaker:So when you have to, you know, today's houses and apartments don't have
Speaker:one bathroom, they may have several.
Speaker:Or at least one or two people have washers and dryers in their
Speaker:house, not outside somewhere.
Speaker:So all those things are potential leaks.
Speaker:Some people have refrigerator that spit cold water and ice.
Speaker:Out.
Speaker:Well that has to be tied to a source of water.
Speaker:And the water leak doesn't have to be obvious.
Speaker:So there's a puddle of water on your floor somewhere.
Speaker:It can be a drop an hour behind the washing machine, behind the whatever.
Speaker:So you've gotta be a Sherlock Homes when you're looking for it in your
Speaker:home, but it's also frequently found in schools and where people work.
Speaker:If people go to a gym, et cetera.
Speaker:So it's, it's, it's, um, there's a lot of places to look for.
Speaker:I'll give you an example.
Speaker:I had a lady come see me.
Speaker:She's a widow, retired teacher, and she was very ill, and it was
Speaker:molds and like toxins treated her.
Speaker:She was fine, didn't hear back from her.
Speaker:And then I hear from her and she says, I'm having the same thing.
Speaker:I said, well.
Speaker:Is it some leak in your home?
Speaker:She says, no, I already had it.
Speaker:Had a company come out and check everything and everything's fine.
Speaker:I, I said, well, what about places that you go?
Speaker:She says, Dr. Campbell, it's the pandemic.
Speaker:I don't go anywhere.
Speaker:I said, okay, let's start looking at what you do every day.
Speaker:So we, we went through it, well, three days a week.
Speaker:She volunteered at the public library during lunch so that people could
Speaker:take their lunch hour and she would replace them during that one hour.
Speaker:I said, is there any mold in your, in that public library?
Speaker:She said, well, I don't know.
Speaker:I said, well, take.
Speaker:Take photographs of corners and ceiling tiles and places.
Speaker:She took the photographs, sent 'em to me.
Speaker:Yeah, there was mold there, so it doesn't have to be where you live.
Speaker:It can be someplace where you go to on a regular basis, such as the public
Speaker:library and in this lady's account.
Speaker:No, I, I think it pays to be cognizant of your surroundings, especially when
Speaker:we're sort of, as you pointed out earlier, we spend 90, 95% of our time indoors.
Speaker:Um, it's, it's probably, uh, the best piece of advice, uh, anyone could give.
Speaker:Anyone who does believe that they may be struggling with these sorts of issues.
Speaker:Dr. Campbell.
Speaker:Thank you for your time.
Speaker:Um, where can people find you?
Speaker:Where can we point people to, to learn more about you, more
Speaker:about your work and Okay.
Speaker:Potentially, uh, find a test.
Speaker:Um, I, by the way, it's not my test.
Speaker:I'm their medical, the, the laboratory's medical advisor.
Speaker:I don't own it.
Speaker:Um, but there's two places.
Speaker:One is if you go to my website, www andrew md com.
Speaker:And you go to click on media at the top.
Speaker:I've got 60 videos that I've done on all aspects of chronic diseases, whether
Speaker:it's Lyme, molds, mycotoxins, breast implant illness, autoimmune disorders.
Speaker:Mast cell activation disorders, et cetera, et cetera.
Speaker:So people can, and every those slides come at the bottom of each slide with the
Speaker:reference from what study it comes from.
Speaker:So it's never my opinion because in medical school I was taught in God, we
Speaker:trust everyone else has to show data.
Speaker:So that's one site, and all these are on YouTube, all 70 of 'em.
Speaker:Um, but the easiest way to reach it is by going to that.
Speaker:If you wanna write me, um, send me an email, then I'm at Immune Doctor
Speaker:one word immune doctor@gmail.com.
Speaker:That's perfect, and I can attest to the quality of your videos.
Speaker:Um, they are truly amazing.
Speaker:And I'm not just saying that to but you up, I promise the information
Speaker:that you provide there is definitely worth watching for, for anyone who
Speaker:is looking for a starting point, and we'll obviously be sure to, to
Speaker:link everything in the show notes.
Speaker:Um, Dr. Campbell, thank you so much for your time.
Speaker:Thank you for having me.
Speaker:This has truly been enlightening.
Speaker:Thank you so much.
Speaker:Thank you.
