Aflatoxin, a substance often found on peanuts, is a known cause of cancer.<\/p>\n<p>\u2022 Mold is a component of many varieties of cheese. Some types, such as Gouda, incorporate yogurt-type cultures rather than fungus, making them a better option.<\/p>\n<p>With some products, such as soy sauce, mold is involved in the production but isn&#8217;t listed in the ingredients, so you should become educated beyond food labels.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Reduce the Risk of Allergic Reactions with NYC Mold Treatment<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Take control of your environment and make it as mold-free as possible.
