Breathing issues with Mold exposure

That can come from elevated TGF-beta which can happen after mold exposure. It can cause "remodeling" in the lungs. Or also from cutting down circulation.
I'm under the impression it's a protective response that the body does to try to limit the damage from mold from cutting down on how much of it you breathe in.
I found that chewing fresh organic rosemary was helpful on the occasions that happened to me. It's anti-inflammatory and antifungal. And stopping getting exposed.

Thanks for the info....I will never clean anything with mold on it again...because today I went to help the lady groom my dog because is the dog is older and scared....I almost pasted out and sweating from the dog hair....never had the problem before getting exposed to the mold....I want to find a mold doctor that takes insurance...does anyone know of one that would take insurance??
