OVERVIEW
One out of every seven Americans suffers from chronic sinusitis. Thousands have seen multiple physicians, attempted many treatment plans, tried varieties of prescription and non-prescription drugs, and even had one-to-five or more sinus-related operations to correct the condition. But, they are still sick! Why?
Because the actual culprit may not have been identified, and certainly it has not been corrected. What is the cause?
Mold !
Mold is a fungus. Where people are found, mold usually is too.
The Mayo Clinic found that 93% of all Chronic Rhinosinusitis (CRS) is due to Allergic Fungal Sinusitis (AFS), a delayed immune reaction to mold.
