- The most widely used test for mycotoxicity is a morning urine mycotoxin panel preceded by a provocation challenge to mobilize tissue-stored mycotoxins. — Mold Toxicity: A Functional Medicine Guide to Mycotoxicity
- Oral or IV glutathione administered before sample collection mobilizes mycotoxins from tissue into the bloodstream for urinary elimination, improving test sensitivity. — Mold Toxicity: A Functional Medicine Guide to Mycotoxicity
- The thyroid — a known target of mycotoxin damage — is routinely assessed with a panel including TSH, T3, free T3, T4, and thyroid antibodies. — Mold Toxicity: A Functional Medicine Guide to Mycotoxicity
- The recommended diagnostic sequence addresses sleep, stress, gut health, and hormonal balance before initiating mycotoxicity investigation. — Mold Toxicity: A Functional Medicine Guide to Mycotoxicity
- Genetic variants (SNPs) affecting glutathione metabolism can reduce the body's response to a glutathione provocation challenge, potentially causing false negatives. — Mold Toxicity: A Functional Medicine Guide to Mycotoxicity
