What it is
The MycoTOX Profile is an at home mycotoxin exposure test that uses a single first morning urine sample to screen for eleven different mycotoxins from over forty species of mould, with a detailed report of your results.
How it helps
Toxins from mould (mycotoxins) are among the most common environmental health threats. This test is designed to help you identify toxin exposure and guide detoxification strategies for your wellbeing.
Why test for mycotoxins?
Mycotoxins are metabolites produced by mould and are one of the most prevalent toxins in the environment. Fungi such as mould can be found in buildings, vehicles and food, and are resistant to heat and many other processing procedures.
Mycotoxin exposure has been linked to many chronic conditions and symptoms, such as food allergies, liver disease, infertility and seizures, as well as common symptoms such as nausea, diarrhoea, irritability and fatigue.
Symptoms that have been linked to mycotoxin exposure include:
- Chronic fatigue
- Digestive issues (IBS, bloating, diarrhoea)
- Brain fog and difficulty concentrating
- Skin conditions (dermatitis, psoriasis)
- Respiratory problems (asthma, sinusitis)
- Hormonal imbalances and infertility
- Anxiety, low mood and neurological symptoms
This test helps uncover hidden exposure so you can take targeted action to support detoxification and recovery.
Detox and recovery – what is next?
If your results show mycotoxin exposure, the next step is detoxification. Common approaches include:
- Binders (activated charcoal, bentonite clay) to help remove toxins
- Probiotics and gut support to help restore balance
- Liver and kidney support for detox pathways
- Infrared sauna and sweating to help eliminate toxins
- Air purification and mould remediation to help prevent further exposure
Benefits

- Simple first morning urine sample collected at home
- Analysed using LC-MS/MS (liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry), which offers high specificity and sensitivity and can detect mycotoxins at very low levels
