Keep It Clear


If you've tried everything and your skin still won't clear, mold exposure might be the piece nobody's looked at yet. Katie and Cris are diving into one of the most overlooked root causes of chronic acne: mycotoxin burden. In this episode, they break down what mycotoxins actually are, how mold exposure silently disrupts your gut, liver, and hormones, and why your skin keeps flaring even when you're doing all the right things. They also cover where mold hides (including in your food and supplements), who's most susceptible, and why this is absolutely not a DIY protocol situation.


In This Episode We Cover

  • What mycotoxins are and how they create a total body burden long after exposure is gone.
  • How mold disrupts the gut lining, microbiome, and drives that chronic skin inflammation.
  • The gut, liver, and hormone triangle and why mold throws all three off at once.
  • Common signs of mycotoxin burden you might not be connecting to your skin.
  • Why mold triggers histamine reactions, mast cell activation, and inflammatory breakouts.
  • What testing options are available and why working with a practitioner is non-negotiable.
