Just reading some info about mold and since some of our kids have health issues I thought I would pass this on since it's very important to make sure your home is mold free... It can grow anywhere quick and easy causing health issues.

According to a 1999 Mayo Clinic Study, nearly all chronic sinus infections (afflicting 37 million Americans) are a result of molds.

A 300% increase in the asthma rate over the past 20 years has been linked to molds. (according to 1999 USA Today Cover Story)

The Dangers of Mold on Your Health and Why it Needs to Go

Molds are microscopic organisms that are virtually everywhere. There are good molds and bad molds. Molds can help our environment yet destroy our homes and health.

However, for the most part, molds are really not that bad unless they are in our homes, and then, if they are left to them selves, can wreak havoc on our homes and well being.

One of the most popular breeding places for molds is in the bathroom. If left untreated, this little organism will make your life most miserable. Think I'm kidding -just continue reading. In this article, we hope to point out some of the dangers of mold and why it must go if you're going to have any chance of living a healthy life.

To start with, mold is one of the most common allergies that allergy sufferers suffer from. Severe suffers may endure shortness of breath, tightening of the throat and even respiratory distress - in the most extreme cases. Less severe reactions may be fever, rashes, coughing, headaches and throat irritation - just to name a few. Asthma suffers must really take care since strong concentrations of mold can actually kill them. While these are only some of the most common symptoms and problems, they are only the tip of the iceberg.

What many people don't realize is that mold can also cause other problems which many would never even consider linking to a mold problem. Things like severe memory impairment, irritable bowel syndrome and even chronic fatigue can come from being exposed to molds.

The most common mold is stachybotrys chartarum and is also the most deadly as well. It is the mold that is commonly found in damp places like your bathroom. If you stop and think how much time you spend in the bathroom you can begin to understand that health problems may develop with this constant exposure over a long period of time.
