This test can identify disturbances in gut flora in both the small and
large intestines and damage to the gut and blood-brain
structures. These disturbances can lead to conditions such as a
leaky gut and leaky brain, as well as issues like SIBO/IBS,
inflammation, autoimmunity, neuro autoimmunity, and
neurodegenerative disorders.
Note: You’ll learn more about Cyrex when we profile
manufacturers later in the program.

Mold Testing
Clients should have mold testing if they exhibit symptoms of mold
exposure, such as allergies, respiratory issues, or unexplained
health problems that may be linked to mold in their environment,
such as if their home has experienced water damage.
Symptoms of mold exposure can include coughing, sneezing,
runny or stuffy nose, itchy eyes, and skin rashes. If a client has a
mold allergy and asthma, their asthma symptoms can be
triggered by exposure to mold spores.
