Send us Fan MailWhat if the reason you still don't feel well isn't just your body... but the place you spend the most time?In this episode of Never Been Sicker, Michael Rubino sits down with functional medicine physician Kurt N. Woeller, DO, FMAPS to discuss why environmental exposures, especially mold and mycotoxins, are so often overlooked in medicine. Together, they explore why many patients continue searching for answers while an important piece of the puzzle is never investigated.Dr. Woeller explains why symptoms like fatigue, brain fog, headaches, poor sleep, digestive issues, allergies, and chronic inflammation can persist when environmental exposure isn't addressed. He also shares why testing both the home and the body creates a much clearer picture than either one alone.The conversation covers real patient stories, common mistakes people make when they suspect mold, and why removing ongoing exposure is often one of the most important steps toward recovery.Whether you're struggling with chronic illness, supporting a loved one, or simply want to understand how your environment impacts your health, this episode offers practical insight into a topic more physicians are beginning to recognize.-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------CHAPTERS:00:00 Introduction00:19 Meet Dr. Kurt Woeller01:08 Why mold is missed in medicine03:19 Biggest mistakes people make after mold exposure05:08 Can hidden mold make you sick?06:43 Why environmental medicine matters08:18 Why you can't heal while ongoing exposure continues09:29 Why testing the body alone isn't enough12:07 Why testing the home alone isn't enough14:06 How combining both tests changes treatment16:14 Why comprehensive testing matters18:17 One camera angle isn't enough20:41 Test, don't guess22:52 How targeted testing can save time and money28:58 Why data still needs clinical guidance29:28 Real patient success story36:01 Why people normalize feeling sick39:08 Common symptoms of mold exposure45:48 Rapid-fire questions48:23 Where to find Dr. Kurt Woeller50:07 Closing thoughts-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------🔵 Get the bundle here: https://www.homecleanse.com/product/mycotox-profile-the-dust-test/Kurt N.
