This YouTube video (by Robert Whitfield MD) discusses why some people become ill from environmental mycotoxins while others in the same environment remain well. The excerpt emphasizes genetic differences and variability in individual detox pathways: people can share the same exposure but have different abilities to clear mycotoxins, so the ‘burden on your body’ determines illness risk.
But the other thing that you mentioned that I think is so important to highlight is that I think people discount it a lot of the time, because, as you said, genetics are different. And you could be living in a house with everyone else who is fine, and you're sick. And you say, well, it can't be my house, because I'm not. I'm the only one that's feeling this. Everyone else is fine, but you all have different detox pathways, and you might not be clearing the mycotoxins, and they may be able to handle that level.
