Hi there - what are good herbs to support aspergillus mold detox? Apple pectin fiber (combined with other forms of fiber) is being taken and infrared sauna is being used. Milk thistle tincture as well. Is there anything else? Thanks!

Also drinking a tea: shave grass, peppermint, spearmint, princess pine, cornsilk and stinging nettle.

I doubt apple pectin will do much for Aspergillosis, is it mostly affecting the lungs ? Where else are their symptoms? For the lungs -Thyme and Elecampane. Milk Thistle will only help if there is liver or kidney involvement.

I don’t see the tea being all that useful either, what is the rationale for using those herbs ?

I think the thought point was to remove the mold: provide a binder for it leave the body and support the liver and kidneys in doing so. I had a doctor trained in herbalism but during the pandemic he got involved w Qanon and the insurrection - needless to say he’s not my doctor anymore! Thought this asking this question could be a really good way to get more connected w herbs by using my “ailment” to interact closely with them. The symptoms aren’t too bad - maybe some fatigue and brain fog. A rash around my right eye that seems to be connected to mold exposure. All the tests came back good: lungs, liver, kidney, brain, but aspergillosis levels were off the charts. He first detected my problem because I was clearing my throat a lot when I talked to him.

For your information here is a list of the types of Aspergillosis, what you have does nt really sound like any of them, except perhaps the allergic Aspergillosis. Types of aspergillosis Allergic bronchopulmonary aspergillosis (ABPA): Occurs when Aspergillus causes inflammation in the lungs and allergy symptoms such as coughing and wheezing, but doesn’t cause an infection.2 Allergic Aspergillus sinusitis: Occurs when Aspergillus causes inflammation in the sinuses and symptoms of a sinus infection (drainage, stuffiness, headache) but doesn’t cause an infection.3 Azole-Resistant Aspergillus fumigatus: Occurs when one species of Aspergillus, A. fumigatus, becomes resistant to certain medicines used to treat it. Patients with resistant infections might not get better with treatment. Aspergilloma: Occurs when a ball of Aspergillus grows in the lungs or sinuses, but usually does not spread to other parts of the body.4 Aspergilloma is also called a “fungus ball.” Chronic pulmonary aspergillosis: Occurs when Aspergillus infection causes cavities in the lungs, and can be a long-term (3 months or more) condition. One or more fungal balls (aspergillomas) may also be present in the lungs.5 Invasive aspergillosis: Occurs when Aspergillus causes a serious infection, and usually affects people who have weakened immune systems, such as people who have had an organ transplant or a stem cell transplant. Invasive aspergillosis most commonly affects the lungs, but it can also spread to other parts of the body. Cutaneous (skin) aspergillosis: Occurs when Aspergillus enters the body through a break in the skin (for example, after surgery or a burn wound) and causes infection, usually in people who have weakened immune systems. Cutaneous aspergillosis can also occur if invasive aspergillosis spreads to the skin from somewhere else in the body, such as the lungs.6

Thanks - sounds like a good thing considering it all.
