Dr. Jill Crista is a return guest on the Delivering Health podcast. The last time she spoke with me we talked about mold toxicity. It’s one of our most popular episodes, so make sure to check it out. Another area she’s dived into is a debilitating condition that affects children. They can go misdiagnosed for years with this, struggling with attention, obsessive compulsive behaviors and more. And that is a condition called PANS or PANDAS. Her latest book is “A Light in the Dark for PANDAS & PANS”.
