Jennifer was a successful runway model in California until age 23, when she suddenly became “very sickly.” Between the ages of 23 and 33, Jennifer spent $1.3 million at California Universities and California Wellness Centers attempting to get a diagnosis and regain her health. In October 2011, Jennifer and her mother came to Sponaugle Wellness Institute as a last hope, determined to discover what mystery illness was robbing Jennifer of her youth.
Upon Jennifer’s arrival, Dr. Sponaugle reviewed primary lab data and informed Jennifer he suspected mold toxicity and, potentially, Lyme Disease. Subsequent testing revealed Jennifer was suffering from severe Trichothecene toxicity, Lyme Disease, and a severe Bartonella infection, as seen in her Biofilm below*.
Dr. Sponaugle explained that the Trichothecene mold toxin down-regulates the immune system’s “kill power” so much at high levels that even young, healthy models like Jennifer are taken down with multiple infections because they cannot kill tick-borne and mosquito-borne infections like Lyme, Bartonella, Mycoplasma and Protomyxzoa Rheumatica.
At first, Jennifer and her mother were skeptical that a Los Angeles home could have a problem with hidden mold. Subsequently, inspectors found hidden black mold that played a pivotal role in Jennifer’s immune suppression and Lyme disease.
Lyme disease and her Bartonella infection were causative for Jennifer’s daily headaches, which California pain doctors treated with opiate pain medication.
After 12 weeks* of Dr. Sponaugle’s mostly natural Lyme treatment, Jennifer took her second picture.
Had Jennifer’s mold toxicity, Lyme disease, and Bartonella infection been appropriately diagnosed years ago, she would not have lost her modeling career, nor would she have spent $1.3 million on failed medical treatment.
