Molds are an ubiquitous type of fungus in our environment, with filaments that grow into hyphae. As a protection, these hyphae release spores called mycotoxins, which are the compounds that trigger the immune system and cause disease in humans. One mold can release multiple types of mycotoxins that can be toxic to different organs in the body. Because of this, mycotoxin illness can create multiple symptoms and be difficult to identify.
