At AvoVIta Wellness in Calgary, we recognize that environmental toxins can play a significant, yet often unseen, role in chronic illness. Among these, mycotoxins—toxic secondary metabolites produced by certain molds—are a major concern. Exposure to mycotoxins, often through water-damaged buildings, contaminated food, or even airborne spores, can lead to a wide array of debilitating and non-specific symptoms that mimic other conditions, making accurate diagnosis incredibly challenging. Symptoms can include persistent fatigue, brain fog, neurological issues, respiratory problems, chronic pain, and immune dysfunction, significantly impacting quality of life.

The Armin Labs ToxiPlex test offers a groundbreaking solution by providing a direct and precise assessment of your body's current mycotoxin burden. Unlike some tests that rely on indirect markers or urinary excretion (which only show what the body is eliminating), ToxiPlex directly measures five of the most common and clinically relevant mycotoxins from a blood serum sample. These include:

Aflatoxin B1: A potent liver toxin and carcinogen, often found in contaminated grains and nuts.

Deoxynivalenol (DON) / Vomitoxin: Frequently associated with "sick building syndrome" and digestive issues.

Fumonisin: Linked to neurological and immune system effects, often from corn contamination.

Ochratoxin A: A kidney toxin and immunosuppressant, found in various food products and damp environments.

Zearalenone: An estrogenic mycotoxin with hormonal disruptive effects.

By identifying which specific mycotoxins are circulating within your system, ToxiPlex provides crucial, actionable data. This direct insight enables us at AvoVIta Wellness to develop a highly targeted and individualized detoxification protocol, recommend necessary environmental remediation, and implement supportive therapies. Pinpointing the exact mycotoxins allows for a more effective strategy to reduce your toxic load, alleviate symptoms, and pave the way for true recovery and improved well-being.
