MARCoNS are very slow growing however, can have such an effect on one’s health leading to chronic fatigue, hormonal imbalances, and more. The MARCoNS test should be considered when mould is an issue and when low MSH (Melanocyte-Stimulating Hormone) results are present. For those that mould is the issue, the first step is living and working in a relatively mould free place.
