Who Is Most at Risk for Contracting Mold Sickness? Answers Environmental Hygienist Phillip Fry

Montrose, MI, December 4, 2015 (Newswire.com) - "Three groups of individuals are in the highest risk categories for contracting mold illnesses when exposed to health-endangering and potentially lethal high levels of indoor toxic mold growth," according to Certified Environmental Hygienist Phillip Fry, author of the Mold Health Guide 2016, and webmaster of  the websites www.moldexpertconsultants.com and www.ohiomoldinspection.com.

Residents and employees are at high mold sickness risk if they---

1.  Are exposed to elevated levels of toxic mold growth in a toxic mold infested home, vehicle, or workplace environment; 

2.  Participate in athletic activities and vigorous exercise because robust physical activities may allow those persons to breathe microbial fine particulates deeper into their lungs during times of high physical exertion; and

3.  Are in one or more of these “High Risk” for mold illness categories, according to the Centers for Disease Control (CDC), the National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH), and the United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA)---

• Expectant mothers
• Infants and toddlers
• Children under the age of fifteen (15) years of age
• Senior citizens and elderly persons
• Cancer patients, especially if undergoing chemotherapy or using cancer therapy drugs
• Diabetics
• Burn victims
• Persons diagnosed as immuno-compromised, or immuno-suppressed

The top 100 mold health symptoms and illnesses are listed on the mold health information website www.moldinspector.com.
