Dr. Rodger Murphree—board-certified nutritional specialist, chiropractic physician, and functional medicine expert—explains why so many chronic illness cases have become harder to treat in the last decade and why toxic mold is often the hidden, overlooked driver. He shares how patients who once responded quickly to fibromyalgia and chronic fatigue protocols started stalling out, what he learned from mold expert Dr. Neil Nathan, and why we’re now seeing an epidemic of environmentally induced illnesses. Dr. Murphree breaks down the difference between simple mold allergies and true mold toxicity, how mycotoxins damage mitochondria, drive chronic inflammation, and trigger a “cell danger response” that can show up as fatigue, pain, brain fog, mood changes, neuropathy, gut issues, skin problems, and more—even years after leaving a moldy environment.

From there, Dr. Murphree reframes many “mystery” conditions as toxic burden problems that require detective work and a structured protocol, not just more symptom drugs. He walks through how to inspect your home and workplace, why he prefers ERMI dust testing over basic air tests, and how urine mycotoxin testing can confirm internal exposure. Then he outlines a stepwise functional medicine plan: protecting the body with glutathione and NAC, priming the gut with Saccharomyces boulardii, using binders like GI Detox or MycoPul, layering in antifungals such as Biocidin, adding colloidal silver nasal spray to clear the sinuses, and supporting detox with diet, saunas, liver support, air purifiers, and strategic houseplants. The training is educational and emphasizes working with a qualified healthcare professional for testing, interpretation, and any treatment decisions.
