Mould exposure is more common than many people realise, and it can have a significant impact on health. Whether it’s from water-damaged buildings, contaminated food, or hidden in your home’s air, mould can lead to respiratory issues, fatigue, headaches, allergies, and even more severe conditions like neurological symptoms or immune dysfunction.
Unlike traditional mould testing that focuses on environmental exposure, urine mould testing may help identify if mould toxins (mycotoxins) are accumulating in your body. This test provides a direct measure of internal mould burden, offering valuable insights into your detoxification capacity and overall health.
Note while urine mycotoxin testing can detect exposure to certain mould toxins, its role in clinical diagnosis is limited. Further research and validation are needed to establish its efficacy and reliability as a diagnostic tool.
This simple urine test measures:
This mycotoxin, produced by mould species like Aspergillus and Penicillium, can affect kidney function, immune health, and increase oxidative stress. Common exposure sources include water-damaged buildings, contaminated grains, coffee, and nuts.
The Aflatoxin Group comprises highly toxic compounds produced by fungi, particularly Aspergillus moulds. They contaminate various foods, posing severe health risks. Exposure occurs through consuming contaminated food and feed can is linked to liver damage and increased cancer risk.
These mycotoxins, produced by Stachybotrys (“black mould”) and Fusarium moulds, can be highly toxic, affecting the nervous system, immune function, and gut health.
Gliotoxin is linked to Aspergillus species and is an immunosuppressive toxin that can contribute to chronic infections and immune dysfunction.
Produced by Fusarium mould, this mycotoxin mimics oestrogen and can impact hormone balance, reproductive health. It’s commonly found in contaminated grains, corn, and animal feed.
Your test kit and all instructions are posted directly to you, and there is no need to visit a collection centre.
Results for this test typically available in 2 weeks and will be published in your online dashboard.
