Mold Illness, Hashimoto's, & Unexplained Symptoms: Jenn Malecha | Ep27

As a functional health practitioner, Jenn Malecha followed a clean diet, exercised regularly, took high-quality supplements, and lived what most people would consider a healthy lifestyle. Yet despite all of that, her health started to decline. She gained 15 pounds without explanation, developed cystic acne, experienced night sweats, and eventually woke up one morning with severe breast inflammation that left her terrified she might have cancer.Specialists offered few answers. Some suggested hormones. Others told her to simply monitor the symptoms. None could explain why her body seemed to be falling apart.The answer was hiding just a few feet away.After years of unexplained symptoms, Jenn discovered toxic black mold growing in the ceiling of her home office. The room where she spent most of her workday had been exposing her to mold for years. Looking back, she realized her dog had actually shown signs of illness before she did, becoming what she now calls the "canary in the coal mine."In this episode of The Rock Bottom Podcast, Jenn shares how mold exposure affected her hormones, thyroid, nervous system, detox pathways, and overall health. She explains why many people feel stuck despite doing all the right things, how environmental toxins can create symptoms that often go overlooked, and the steps she took to reclaim her health.Jenn MalechaWebsite: https://www.wholistichealthboss.comInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/wholistichealthbossPodcast: The Wholistic Health Boss PodcastDisclaimer: This podcast is for informational purposes only and is not a substitute for medical advice.
