Since carbohydrates are one of the nutrients which mold fungi feed on to survive and grow inside the human body it is important to address the issue of low carb vs high carb diet. This is a long running debate. Unfortunately too many categories of carbohydrates are lumped together. There is an obvious difference between eating lots of pasta, grains or sugars and eating lots of green vegetables.

According to the American Council for Drug Education, alcohol "is a powerful, addictive, central nervous system depressant produced by the action of yeast cells on carbohydrates in fruits and grains." The mold of yeast acts on the carbohydrates in fruits and grains to ferment, age and degenerate them into a molded product, alcohol. Anything that has been fermented is molded. Drinking alcohol is drinking a glass of molded product, adding to the accumulated mold fungi in your body. Higher levels of yeast in your body can act on fruits and grains you consume to basically produce alcohol inside you, especially if your digestive system is not working properly to expediently process them.

The key to which carbohydrates we should consume appears to be guided by their glycemic index. According to MedicineNet.com "Glycemic index is an indicator of how quickly a food affects blood sugar levels. Foods with a high glycemic index tend to be starchy, sugary, or refined and stripped of some of their natural goodness; they're often "empty" calories. In general, low-glycemic-index foods usually have more fiber and nutrients. For instance, french fries have a higher glycemic index than grapefruit. Cakes and cookies are off the charts, compared with spinach."

Carbohydrates are essential to proper cell-to-cell communication. Carbohydrates consumed by mold fungi, depleting our bodies, need to be replaced in order for our bodies to function properly. The key is to replace those carbohydrates with ones mold fungi do not like. Mold fungi are non-chlorophyll in nature. In other words mold fungi do not like foods which create a chlorophyll rich environment inside the human body. The green in the green vegetables is due to their high level of chlorophyll, which makes plants be generative and grow. This makes your green vegetables a good antifungal, a generative food, and a good carbohydrate with it's low glycemic rating.

Chlorophyll makes biological material like trees and plants grow. Mold fungi make biological material degenerate and die. The job of mold fungi is to degenerate and break down all biological material and components to their basic elements, and then recycle them back to Mother Nature. Chlorophyll, which makes things grow, is counter-productive to the actions of mold fungi. Thus, consumption of chlorophyll rich carbohydrates such as green vegetables creates a chlorophyll rich environment, which is a hostile environment for mold fungi.

Chlorophyllin is a derivative of chlorophyll which has been proven to reduce liver cancer and absorption of aflatoxins, one of the mycotoxins produced by mold fungi, by 50%. I personally add chlorophyllin to my dailey diet because, it helps reduce aflatoxins and other mycotoxins from being absorbed into my body. It helps round up aflatoxins and other mycotoxins already absorbed into my body's tissues and organs, surround them with a slippery gel and slide them out of the body. I also believe it helps rid the body of other toxins as well. I use it as my main form of detoxification. I believe it has played a significant role in reducing the level of toxic mold and their mycotoxins from my body, and my return to good health.

People suffering from depression and/or bipolar disorders often crave carbohydrates. The conditions of depression and bipolar disorders are often caused by the harmful effects of toxic molds on the human body. Since mold and other fungi consume carbohydrates, depleting their levels within the body, it makes sense that the body would crave that which has been depleted. Due to our body's autonomic systems which have facilitated human survival for thousands of years our bodies usually know what they need. We just need to become better at listening and understanding what our bodies are trying to communicate to us.
