Quick update on MoldCo's (@themoldcompany) Starter Health Panel. We just got a significantly lower cost basis from our lab partner and we’re passing 100% of the savings to patients. Price is dropping from $99 to $56 today (March 13). Same panel, same quality, same everything. Only the price changed. Healthcare prices are supposed to go up and stay there. We’d rather build something where, when our costs go down, yours do too. moldco.com/products/starter-…

In New Hampshire, I announced one of the most ambitious federal efforts ever undertaken to combat Lyme disease. Under President Trump’s leadership, we are accelerating research, driving innovation, improving care for patients and families, and attacking Lyme disease at its source.

Loving the mold mention at minute 27. Thank you for bringing more awareness to this major root cause driver of chronic conditions @APompliano @jvisserlabs

RFK Jr. says HHS is working to find a cure for Alpha Gal. The tick disease that can make you allergic to red meat for life. “One bite from a lone star tick, and you could have a lifetime allergy to red meat.” “50% of the population of Martha’s Vineyard now has alpha gal.” “We’re also working on medicines that can prevent Alpha Gal and have the promise of actually curing it.” “One of those medicines is almost ready.” “We’re fast tracking it.” “We’re doing the studies over the next two years to see if we can actually reverse this devastating disease.”

Most people never think twice about plastic water bottles. Dr. Leo Trasande joins me to discuss how microplastics and toxic chemicals are entering the human body—and the practical steps Americans can take to reduce exposure. Full episode out now.

I'll be in SF Fri & Sat - who should I meet?

It was black mold. Check your ducts and AC units.

If you're looking for a trade (idk why you'd listen to the ruling class that told you to 'learn to code' but ok) HVAC technicians will be worth their weight in gold once the GP starts realizing how bad mold toxicity is.

RT @eurydicejones: when you've been traumatized by mold poisoning you start casually thinking shit like "i love air purifiers and high qual…

Mold and mycotoxins are ruining people's health. They are some of the primary drivers behind health issues such as: -Chronic fatigue -Fibromyalgia -Cancer -Insomnia -Histamine intolerance/MCAS -Dysfunctions of the immune system -Skin issues -nnEMF sensitivity -Neuroinflammation -Pathogen overgrowths and more. So here's how to deal with this issue. Thread 🧵

HUGE from @SecKennedy: “There’s been an explosion in technology for removing PFAS and destroying it that will make it much more affordable.”

Joe Rogan's friend got bit by a tick and can now only eat eggs. 450,000 Americans have the same allergy to beef and dairy. From a single tick bite. And the timing is very suspicious... Here's what no one is telling you about the lone star tick (thread):

🚨 BREAKING: Health Sec. RFK Jr. just announced the Systematic Targeting of MICROPLASTICS nationwide — a program to surge the ability to REMOVE microplastics from the human body HUGE! RFK JR: "We can't treat what we cannot measure. We cannot regulate what we don't understand. So today, HHS, alongside EPA, is taking direct action." "We are launching STOMP, which stands for Systematic Targeting of MicroPlastics. It's a $144 million national program to measure, understand, and to remove microplastics from the human body." "We are focusing on three questions. What is in the body, what's causing the harm, and how do we prove it? And we're answering them everywhere." @RapidResponse47

Shein's clothes are so toxic the state of Texas is suing them. Lab testing found: - PFAS at 3,300x the EU limit in 7 jackets (no federal US limit) - Phthalates at up to 428x the legal limit (children's shoes/accessories) - Formaldehyde (toxic VOC) Until lawsuits and legislation force Big Clothing to change, find natural fiber clothes free of toxic dyes, coatings, and treatments on the Oasis app.

Not only is mold illness real, it’s so real that your board‑certified doctor telling you it’s “not real” is basically auditioning for a malpractice lawsuit: “Hi jury, yes, I told a patient living in a black‑spotted, musty apartment with chronic respiratory issues and cognitive decline that ‘mold is an internet hysteria for bored women’ and advised them to stop Googling and go back home. No, I did not review any environmental history. Yes, I billed for that visit.” Your doctor isn’t being “science‑based.” Your doctor is casually narrating Exhibit A in their own malpractice case.

Spent years close to the equator getting unprotected sun exposure every day: no noticeable photoaging Get CIRS from toxic mold poisoning (total a-MSH and glutathione depletion): Skin ages 10 years in 6 months, zero sun tolerance. Endogenous antioxidant activity is everything.

The body recognizes mold immediately as medicine is still catching up. Shoemaker named the chain reaction the Biotoxin Pathway, and it starts the moment your immune system identifies mold on contact. Ribotoxins, mycotoxins, cell-wall fragments like β-glucans and chitin, even residual mold DNA bind specific pattern recognition receptors. Once those receptors trip, immune cells release inflammatory cytokines like IL-1β, TNF-α, and TGF-B1. They drive the "my PCP's labs were normal but I feel off" symptoms. The lung takes the first hit because it's the first line of defense. Even inert particulate irritates alveoli. Immune cells arrive to investigate, become inflamed themselves, and re-enter circulation, carrying that inflammation everywhere else. Continuous alveolar irritation reduces oxygenation. Tissue gets hypoxic. Hypoxia is itself inflammatory, and the loop tightens. Fatigue, brain fog, and exercise intolerance follow. About 1 in 4 people have genetics that make clearing these biotoxins inefficient. For them, the pathway gets stuck on and MSH drops. When MSH drops, the inflammatory loop loses its brake. That's when symptoms cross the formal CIRS threshold, and for others still in the same moldy building - they're on the curve of mold toxicity, just lower down.

Most patients dealing with mold-related illness aren’t getting answers. They’re getting lost. Lost in conflicting information. Lost between providers who don’t connect the dots. Lost trying to advocate for themselves without a clear roadmap. That’s the gap we’re focused on closing. At MoldCo, we’re building a system of care and education designed specifically for these patients. That means investing heavily in high-quality, accessible resources, from video content that simplifies complex topics, to in-depth articles, to live AMAs where patients can get their questions answered directly. But more importantly, we’re building the clinical side to match. A team of specialized in-house, full-time, specialized providers trained by world experts in mold and environmental illness so patients aren’t left navigating this alone or relying on trial and error. Because when patients are informed and supported by the right clinicians, everything changes: decisions get clearer, care gets more effective, and progress becomes possible. This is the standard we believe should exist and we’re building it.

I’ve said this before: I believe consumer biotech will become the most compelling sub-sector within biotech - without question - and one of the most attractive investment opportunities overall. At its core, this category targets products that slow or reverse aging, tap into human vanity, and measurably improve health, performance, and happiness. That is a market that, quite simply, approaches 100% of the global population. As a result, I expect consumer-driven pharma/biotech revenues to scale aggressively, expanding well beyond the current wave of GLP-1s and into a much broader portfolio of interventions. Crucially, I believe a significant share of this value will be captured at the distribution layer - specifically by telehealth platforms such as $HIMS , as well as our own “Live Enhanced” platform, a core business line of the @enhanced_games $APAD soon $ENHA 🚀
