U.S. A Summary of
Mold Health Problems
Fungi are a kingdom of organisms that include
mushrooms, mildews, molds, and yeasts. It is
estimated that there are between 50,000 and
250,000 species of fungi, and fewer than 200 have
been described as human pathogens that can
cause infections. Molds are ubiquitous in nature and grow almost
anywhere indoors and outdoors. More than 1,000 different kinds of
indoor molds have been found in U.S. homes. Molds spread and reproduce
by making spores, which are very small and lightweight, able to travel
through air, capable of resisting dry, adverse environmental
conditions, and hence capable of surviving a long time. Molds need
moisture and food to grow, and their growth is stimulated by warm,
damp, and humid conditions.

Mold or Mildew? Mildew is a common name for mold or fungi, often used to describe fungal growth on bathroom tiles/fixtures, and on wet clothing.
Mold, mildew, and moisture in the home or workplace: "Molds
can grow on virtually any substance, as long as moisture or water,
oxygen, and an organic [food] source are present. Molds reproduce by
creating tiny spores (viable seeds) that usually cannot be seen without
magnification. Mold spores continually float through the indoor and
outdoor air.," reports the U.S. Occupational Safety and Health
Administration.
Mold that runs out of moisture to
sustain its continued growth goes into a dormant state [that can last
for millions of years] waiting for renewed access to moisture so that
it can resume its relentless growth made possible by eating
cellulose-based building materials and other organic food. Dormant mold
does not disintegrate or biodegrade over time. The dormant or
growing mold can endure being either frozen or high temperatures [up to
160 ºF].

Toxic Black Mold Allergy, Respiratory Problems, & Mold Health Issues
"Molds are usually not a
problem indoors, unless mold spores land on a wet or damp spot and begin
growing.
Molds have the potential to cause health problems. Molds
produce allergens (substances that can cause allergic reactions), irritants,
and in some cases, potentially toxic substances (mycotoxins). Inhaling or
touching mold or mold spores may cause allergic reactions in sensitive
individuals. Allergic responses include hay fever-type symptoms, such
as sneezing, runny nose, red eyes, and skin rash (dermatitis).
Allergic reactions to mold are common. They can be immediate or
delayed. Molds can also cause asthma attacks in people with asthma who
are allergic to mold. In addition, mold exposure can irritate the
eyes, skin, nose, throat, and lungs of both mold-allergic and non-allergic
people. Symptoms other than the allergic and irritant types are not
commonly reported as a result of inhaling mold. Research on mold and
health effects is ongoing" advises the U.S. Environmental Protection
Agency.

German Children Mold
Study
"Our [research study] results suggest that indoor mold spore exposure,
mainly during winter, might increase the risk of sensitization to all
allergens in children...[W]e found that allergic sensitization was
significantly associated with exposure to one or more genera of indoor
mold spores, even after adjustment for house dust mite exposure. The
effect strengthened when we restricted our study population to children
who had lived in the same home since birth. Furthermore, our study
suggests that high indoor spore counts might increase the prevalence of
allergic symptoms in all children whether they are sensitized or not."

Fungal Infections
Deadly Tsunami Fungal Infection. Survivors of the Asian tsunami could be at risk of the deadly fungal infection Mucormycosis, Australian researchers said on Jan. 28, 2005. Doctors at Sydney's St George Hospital treated the Mucormycosis infection in an Australian man who was injured in the disaster. Doctors fear it could be the first case of many. This fungal disease is caused by the Mucor mold species, which is a very common mold species that readily grows in water-damaged buildings worldwide, and which is commonly found in the soil and in decaying vegetation. Mucormycosis affects the sinuses, brain, lungs, skin and kidneys. People with immune disorders are more susceptible to the infection. Mold Health Problems.

"Sick Building Syndrome"
Molds and fungi growing inside buildings may be the source of indoor air-quality problems known as the "sick building syndrome." While the syndrome has been blamed on a variety of causes, from the emissions of particleboard partitions and paints to carpets and cleaning supplies, Georgia Tech research has found that metabolic gases emitted from molds and fungi may be a significant source of airborne volatile organic compounds (VOCs) that can cause indoor air-quality problems. The new research suggests that control measures prescribed for sick buildings may need to be altered to address microbial problems as well as building materials. Mold Health Problems. Most homes have mold infestation. Mold Removal Treating
Toxic Black Mold In Homes
Most Homes Have a Mold Problem. Even if your home looks clean, chances are good you've got mold, often at levels high enough to trigger allergy and asthma attacks. That bit of dour news comes courtesy of a new university research study that also found the mold is frequently in areas most people don't associate with it -- windowsills, for instance. After surveying 160 homes in seven U.S. cities, Kelly A. Reynolds of the University of Arizona, Tucson, found that 100 percent of the homes tested positive for mold on some inside surface. The discovered molds were all highly allergenic molds. Read the entire home mold research. "Up to one-third of [non-residential] buildings in industrialized countries are sick," according to the World Health Organization, 1995. Get your mold question answered FREE about mold environmental health problems. The Ottawa, Canada-based Canadian Mortgage and Housing Corporation (CMHC) warns in a pamphlet published at its web site that "if you live in a damp house, or have ever experienced flooding, your house may be breeding an often invisible and always unwelcome intruder - mold." Ken Ruest, Senior Researcher with the CMHC points out that, "a lot of people are unaware there's a toxic mold problem until their house is so badly affected they can't live in it anymore." Toxic black mold in homes is also common. New home mold is also a very common problem. How to get rid of mold in the home or workplace.
The food source for fungal growth in buildings may include cellulose, which can be found in ceiling tile, insulation, sheetrock, as well as wood and dirt. Clothing, carpeting and padding, draperies, upholstered and wood furniture, leather shoes, and other cellulose-based home contents are also favorites for mold to eat and grow. Mold organisms have three modes: (1) active, live mold growth when the mold has your house to eat and access to high humidity or water leaks; (2) dormant mold or inactive mold, when the mold spores and mold colonies go into sleep waiting for renewed access to high humidity or water leaks; and (3) dead mold [no longer capable of reproducing or living]. All three modes are dangerous to health. Even the smell of dead mold can make mold-sensitive persons sick. Mold-Bleach-Myth Mold Health Problems

The “toxic mold” term refers to any mold that produces mycotoxins in its spores. Mycotoxins are generally recognized to be cytoxic, meaning they have the capacity to pass through the human cellular wall and disrupt certain cellular processes---causing serious health damage to residents and workers. Stachybotrys ("black mold"), Cladosporium, Penicillium, and Aspergillus are the four most dangerous indoor toxic molds---frequently found to be growing in homes and workplaces. Mold Terms.
