In this episode, I speak with Jessica Alana, a board-certified, Integrative and Functional Medical Practitioner who specializes in mold illness, otherwise known as Sick Building Syndrome.
Jessica’s work is instrumental in furthering the study of mold and its impacts on the human body, all of which we cover in this interview.
We touch on a variety of other topics in today’s episode, including an overview of Jessica’s work, Sick Building Syndrome, symptoms associated with the illness, how mold shows up in food, and much more!
