Jordan Peterson “ by taking everything “after being exposed to a” particularly moldy environment “
Controversial Canadian psychologist Jordan Peterson should take “everything” leave after being exposed to a “particularly moldy environment,” said his daughter.
Mikhaila Peterson went to X on Wednesday afternoon to reveal that the 63-year-old influencer was forced to postpone his podcasts and move his European tour after a “serious” push of the symptoms which, according to her, are linked to chronic inflammatory response syndrome.
The elder Peterson has openly discussed his experience with CIRS, a condition that would have been linked to exposure to mold and dysfunction of the immune system, and said it was diagnosed in 2018. It is not a medical diagnosis officially recognized or considered a disease distinct by an important public health agency.
“Hey guys, @jordanbpeterson takes a little time on everything,” wrote Mikhaila Peterson in a post retweeted by her father.
“In the past year, he has felt more and more the impact of CIRS,” she continued. “Recently, he was exposed to a particularly moldy environment while helping to clean my grandfather’s house after his death, which seriously flared the symptoms.”
The CIRS is considered to be a condition where the immune system reacts abnormally after exposure to toxins, like those of mold in wet buildings or damaged by water.
Symptoms include fatigue, neurological problems, pain and light sensitivity, according to a review published in the Annals of Medicine and Surgery.
While many doctors outside of environmental medicine consider CIRs as controversial due to a lack of empirical evidence and ambiguous diagnostic criteria, Mikhaila Peterson qualified the lack of recognition of the condition of “absurd”.
Youtuber, 33, said that his father has been suffering “badly” from CIRS since 2017, a year before saying that he had been diagnosed. She said Peterson only ate meat, which helped limit the symptoms, but added that “it was not sufficient recently”.
Dr. Ritchie Shoemaker, who invented the term CIRS in the 1990s and spoke with Peterson on his podcast last year, says that treatment consists in eliminating exposure to triggering biotoxins and supporting the detoxification and immune function of the body.
“Praying, we can treat it quickly and the medical community can be more aware of the CIRs and the building codes can change (adding orv to CVCs) so that we can go from fresh air inside,” said Mikhaila Peterson.
The young Peterson said that his father’s poor health was not linked to his Akathisie – a condition of agitation linked to the withdrawal of benzodiazepine – and said that he was not doing any medication.
Peterson would have been diagnosed with Akathisia in 2020 after being treated for insomnia and depression, then underwent benzodiazepine detoxification in Russia, which, according to him, included being placed in a nine -day coma with medical induction.
In recent years, Peterson has acquired a reputation for frequent emotional explosions and crying during interviews, which his daughter seemed to bind to her state.
“The CIRS is also an explanation of the recent canceled programs, canceled events, the sporadic appearance of being dilapidated and of general weeping (caused by pain),” she said.
Other conservative personalities have joined Peterson, wishing its rapid recovery.
“Dr. Peterson is not only a mentor and a colleague, he is a dear friend. I pray for his speedy recovery and send my family best. REFUAH Shelaima! ” wrote the right -wing actor and podcaster Ben Shapiro.
“Dr. Peterson has helped millions of people around the world to sail in the most difficult circumstances, it is our opportunity to make favor,” tweeted the Shapiro media society, The daily wire. “Please join the Daily Wire team to send prayers and wishes when it takes the time necessary to rest and recover.”
The independent contacted Peterson representatives for more information.
