In this eye-opening episode, Dr. Monica Jauregui is joined by licensed naturopathic doctor and mycotoxin expert Dr. Julie Greenberg to explore the often-overlooked link between mold exposure and chronic illness. While conventional medicine struggles to address symptoms like fatigue, rashes, and brain fog with clear diagnoses, Dr. Greenberg breaks down the science of how mold and mycotoxins can silently wreak havoc on our health.
They discuss the ethical challenges in studying mold exposure in humans, the role of animal studies, and the diagnostic blind spots in mainstream medicine. Dr. Greenberg also explains the cellular mechanisms behind mycotoxin damage, the growing legal and medical recognition of mold illness, and how a functional medicine approach offers real solutions for those suffering in silence.
Whether you’re a practitioner or someone with unexplained symptoms, this episode delivers an essential roadmap for understanding—and addressing—the hidden impact of environmental mold.

In this episode, I sit down with Dr. Julie Greenberg for a deep and eye-opening conversation about a topic that doesn’t get nearly enough attention: mycotoxins. These toxic compounds from mold can silently wreak havoc on the body, yet many clinicians still don’t recognize the signs. We talk about why mold-related illness is so tricky to diagnose, the challenges of running large-scale human studies, and how we rely on animal research and real-world clinical experience to guide us. Dr. Greenberg breaks down the cellular-level damage caused by mycotoxins in a way that makes sense. If you or your patients are dealing with chronic fatigue, autoimmune issues, or other "mystery symptoms," this conversation will help you start connecting the dots through a functional and environmental lens.
