Got Fibro & Sensitive to Everything? Part 3: Neurologic Triggers, Molds
Vitality101 Newsletter
Hello Reader,
I've been writing a series on people with fibromyalgia who are incredibly sensitive to any treatments — particularly to medications, but sometimes also to herbals, nutrients, their environment, and even electromagnetic fields (EMFs) such as radiation from cell phones. In the first two parts I released, I discussed Mast Cell Activation Syndrome and food sensitivities. Today I want to talk about two other areas that can cause extreme sensitivities in fibromyalgia: neurologic triggers, and molds.
Neurologic Triggers
Our psyche and brain functions are intimately intertwined. If you're one of those with the most severe sensitivities, so much so that you can't tolerate natural or prescription therapies, addressing your psyche and brain is the place to begin.
Many of you are empathic, and most of us have been through severe trauma from fibromyalgia itself (often even predating the illness). And experiencing severe trauma can reprogram your brain's response to your environment. If this has happened to you, then you might benefit by "resetting" your vagal nerve and limbic systems in order to return your brain's environmental responses to normal. There are many tools that can help you do this, but my favorite is a home DVD course called the Dynamic Neural Retraining System by Annie Hopper. This has resulted in profound benefits in many people (it sells for about $250). Results usually began after 8-10 weeks of doing the exercises it describes for 1 hour a day.
Molds and Mycotoxins (Mold Toxins): A Primer
The concept of mold toxins was initially formulated by Dr. Ritchie Shoemaker, author of Mold Warriors. Ritchie is so bright as to be almost unintelligible in his complexity. His work has been synthesized and simplified by Dr. Neil Nathan, author of the exceptional book Toxic. If you decide to explore mold toxin treatment further, I highly recommend reading this book.
