Webinar Summary
In this talk, Erik Lundquist, MD explores chronic inflammatory response syndrome (CIRS), which is gaining traction among both integrative and traditional practitioners as we learn more about how mold and other biotoxins can impact our health. Home-building efficiencies over the past few decades have created an environment conducive to increased mold exposure. Additionally, one in four Americans have a genetic makeup in which their bodies won’t mount an immune response to rid themselves of toxins. Dr. Lundquist describes specific clusters of symptoms and biomarkers associated with CIRS, followed by the stepwise solution: removal, detoxification, rebalance, and repair.
