Dangers of Toxic Mold with HybridRastaMama.com

I recently had the distinct pleasure of visiting with the lovely Andrea Fabry (of It Takes Time and MomsAWARE) who many of you know has really been a rock for me during my Moldaggedon fiasco. Without her expert advice and strong support, I probably wouldn't be in the same place I am today. I'm serious. Had it not been for her publicly sharing her very similar toxic mold experience, I may very well have never known to even test for mold. But I did and we all know what happened next. It was ... continue reading...

Surviving Toxic Mold – The 6 Month Update from HybridRastaMama.com

December 12, 2014 is a date that is etched in my mind permanently. It is right up there with my birthday, my daughter’s birthday, the day I got married, and the day I got pregnant. I will never, ever forget the day I grabbed my daughter’s hand and walk away from our home and everything we owned. Today marks the 6th month “anniversary” of Moldaggedon. It is almost impossible to comprehend how much has happened in those six months. Aside from the fact that I have aged about 30 years, life as I ... continue reading...

A pollinator graden for bees, butterflies, and birds with annual and perennial plants

When planning a vegetable garden most people focus on which vegetables to grow.

In fact, the birds are so happy that they drop seed presents throughout my garden. So, ... continue reading...

Mycotoxins in Food YOU Eat

By Jennifer Updated: December 3, 2018. First published: April 29, 2015. This post may contain affiliate links. 10 Comments  

Various grains and dried beans that are known for having mycotoxins in food.

Apparently I hit a nerve. Remember that post I wrote about coconut oil not necessarily being safe to consume if you have been a victim of mold exposure? Well, I’m about to hit another nerve folks. Take a seat please… this has to do with mycotoxins in food you eat. Mold spores are everywhere. They basically are unavoidable. Even living in a bubble wouldn’t keep you safe. Some spore would sneak in for sure. So it stands to reason that our food supply is not immune to mold spores and the ... continue reading...

Muslims created the bean pie in part ... continue reading...

Natural Allergy Relief - woman in a field of pollen with her nose plugged with a clothespin

Allergies stink. Big time. No one likes to sneeze, snort, and cough their way through the day all because nature decided to go into full bloom! Most people grab an over-the-counter allergy pill to "relieve" their symptoms. Trust me - I'm guilty of this at times. But honestly, these pills aren't really helping and in fact, can do more harm than good. Natural allergy relief is where it's at. Gut health, diet, and genetics all play a role in allergies. Gut health is an especially big player ... continue reading...
