Summary

Cordila's mold exposure story might sound familiar—she suddenly hit a wall of symptoms like nausea, fatigue, brain fog, weight gain, and more, and reached the end of her rope trying to find a solution.

When she finally made her way to the clinic after a year of being stuck in Rome and many years of a chronic illness, we were able to help her find relief from her mold symptoms.

Tune in to hear Cordila's fascinating journey and what we did to finally make the difference for her health.

0:44.8	Hey everyone. Today I had a amazing conversation with Cordelia and her story from being nearly
0:51.6	bedbound due to mold exposure to now being pretty much a normal, functional
0:57.9	person feeling much, much better. And I'm so excited to share this story with you because not only
1:04.6	is she a great example of how important getting a few key elements are in healing.

2:25.1	Hey, everyone. I'm here with Cordilla and boy, so much to unpack with you, your story and how
2:31.2	you've turned the corner from recovering after a pretty nasty mold
