This is the second part of our interview with David Brooks where he talks about his son’s environmental illness, his journey of discovery, and the long path to recovery. In this edition we talk more about mold allergies, mold toxicity and the harmful nature of environmental illness.
David Brooks has a fascinating and a really challenging story to share, in that his son had a tremendous environmental injury. In his own words -
"When our son was 13 years old, all of a sudden he experienced a rapid free fall in his health. He became too sick for school. He was barely able to get out of bed for many months. He had fatigue. He had depression. He had impaired cognitive abilities. In short, his life was slipping away.
David, if someone is wondering about the connection between air purity and health—wondering maybe whether poor air quality can cause depression or fatigue or lots of other problems…the answer to that question from our experience is… absolutely yes"
