To test your body for mold, the most common test would be either a urine mycotoxin test or a blood serum mycotoxin test. Most people choose the urine mycotoxin test because it’s more convenient and less expensive. The lab mails you a kit, you urinate in a cup, and you mail it back to the lab. With the serum mycotoxin test, the lab sends you a kit, and then you have to find a lab that will draw your blood and follow the special instructions for the test.

Depending on where you live, you may or may not be able to order a mycotoxin test on your own without the help of a doctor or practitioner.

We recommend checking out Jill Crista’s video blog discussing why mycotoxin tests results will vary depending on the type and brand of mycotoxins test you purchase. Dr Jill Crista also has a urine mycotoxin prep printout which discusses: foods and supplements to avoid, when the test should be conducted, and when you should provoke the mycotoxins by using a sauna, getting a lymphatic drainage massage, or taking a hot epsom salt bath.
