About me
Ive been suffering from environmental illness since I was 14 years old... I acquired depression at 14 and never could understand why it would come and go. Now I understand that I am highly sensitive to chemicals and to mold. Our home was mold toxic growing up and my thoughts are that mold gets into the liver and slows down detoxification pathways. This then causes multiple chemical sensitivity...

Miche ➜ ohfaithful I've been taking some things suggested: bee pollen products (honey comb and raw honey), Bio gest Ox bile, the celtic salt, B vitamin.

ohfaithful Thanks for the welcome! Well I haven't been continuously sick since 14, just depression off and on. I have been sick for 10 years though and now understand that it has been MCS. Based on my experience, I think mold plays a huge part. Flushing my liver has helped emensely but I've got a long ways to go!

Maff ➜ ohfaithful Wow that is a long time to be ill. I developed CFS in 1991 (aged 12) and later MCS. Mold undoubtedly contributes to the load on detox pathways but its toxins are also directly damaging to the brain and CNS which could also explain it triggering MCS - or it could be immunological. No simple answer with environmental illness. Hope you find some answers here. Best wishes.

ohfaithful I want some peace and want my life back! I've been sick for a long time and people think that I am crazy because I am so sensitive to indoor chemicals. I wish that things were different, but my liver is very toxic and I am continuously working on detoxifying my body!
