  • Mold Illness & Mycotoxins: What Everyone Needs to Know
    Jul 14 2025
    In this episode of The Integrative Edge, we're shedding light on one of the most overlooked root causes of chronic symptoms—mold illness and mycotoxin exposure. Mold illness is more than just an environmental nuisance; it's a complex inflammatory response that occurs when your body is repeatedly exposed to mold spores and their toxic byproducts, often from water-damaged buildings. Mycotoxins, the harmful compounds released by certain molds, can silently disrupt immune function, hormone balance, brain health, gut integrity, and more, leaving many people misdiagnosed or feeling like they're "just anxious" or "just tired."We explore how mold exposure differs from internal fungal or yeast overgrowth like Candida, and why the two are so often connected. Mycotoxins can suppress the immune system and impair detox pathways, creating the perfect storm for opportunistic infections like Candida to thrive—adding another layer to symptoms and healing complexity. If you’ve been dealing with chronic fatigue, brain fog, anxiety, digestive issues, hormone imbalance, or heightened sensitivity to chemicals and smells, mold and mycotoxins may be an important missing piece. You’ll also learn how to properly test for mold illness—because it’s not always visible on standard labs. We break down options like urine mycotoxin testing (through MosaicDX or Vibrant Wellness), blood antibody testing (from MyMycoLab), organic acids testing, fungal antibody panels, and when to consider environmental tests like ERMI, HERTSMI, or The Dust Test to assess your home. From a functional medicine lens, healing starts with reducing exposure, supporting detoxification through the liver, lymph, and gut, and using specific binders matched to your mycotoxin profile. We also touch on rebuilding gut integrity, supporting mitochondria, and restoring immune balance for long-term recovery—not just symptom management. We’ll reference leading voices in the mold and mycotoxin space, including Dr. Jill Crista, Dr. Jill Carnahan, and Dr. Andrew Campbell, whose clinical insights and research have helped shape safe and effective detox strategies.If you've ever felt dismissed by providers or overwhelmed by unexplained symptoms, this episode will help you connect the dots and feel empowered to explore root-cause solutions. Mold illness is underdiagnosed—especially in women—and healing is absolutely possible with the right tools, testing, and practitioner support. Have questions or topics you’d like us to cover?

  • What Your Doctor Didn’t Tell You About Birth Control
    Jul 7 2025
    In this revealing episode, we unpack the lesser-known effects of hormonal birth control and what your doctor might not have told you. From nutrient depletion and gut disruption to increased risks of mood changes, estrogen dominance, and even certain cancers, we explore how the pill doesn’t regulate your hormones—it overrides them. Many women are left managing symptoms like PMS, acne, or irregular cycles without ever addressing the root cause. We also dive into natural, empowering alternatives to support hormone health, including cycle tracking, nutrient and herbal support, stress management, detox pathways, and gut healing strategies. Whether you’re on the pill, thinking about coming off, or just want to understand your body better—this episode gives you the tools to make informed, root-cause-driven choices. Dr. Kymberly works exclusively with clients interested in coming off birth control and supporting their hormones naturally. Ready to take the next step?
