Welcome To Know The Cause! - Hosted by Doug Kaufmann
Doug Kaufmann’s mission is to counsel both lay and professional audiences on achieving optimum health by avoiding poisonous fungal byproducts, called “mycotoxins.” Unbeknownst to most healthcare providers, humans are exposed to these mycotoxins in our medication, food, and air supply. Excess exposure is linked to many mammalian symptoms and diseases, as published extensively in medical journals. Our job is to assure that you know the cause.

Know The Cause Too! - Live with Doug Kaufmann
Doug talks about - Diseases...Caused by Germs or Gut Terrain?
On Friday from 11AM-Noon Central Time, I will discuss a very controversial topic in medicine, one that began over.a century ago. Do germs, like fungus and bacteria contribute to disease,
or does the intestinal terrain, filled with fungi and bacteria contribute to disease? Everyone seems to have their own opinion, and on Friday, I'll give you mine! Please tell your friends! Doug

Know The Cause Too! - Live with Doug Kaufmann
Doug talks about - What few doctors know might be causing of your health problems
In the past few weeks, we’ve discussed the role of fungal mycotoxins in various symptoms and/or diseases. I have witnessed an explosion of documentation linking mycotoxins to neurological conditions, endocrine disorders, and even their ability to accelerate viruses like HPV and EBV. I’m still lost as to why fungus, or fungal DNA was observed in 35 different cancers in 2022, and then … crickets! I know they care, but I also know that most simply have no idea that many, perhaps most of their patients are suffering from chronic mycotoxicosis, a phenomenon that I’ll discuss on Tuesday from 3-4PM Central Time. No matter what you are suffering from, please give me 30 minutes to teach you what I know about fungus and its ability to mimic or cause serious diseases. Thanks!

The influence of fungus on your genes
We are told that variations or mutations to the CFTR gene causes cystic fibrosis. Scientists have now discovered seven genes that cause some form of Parkinson's disease. According to Medicinenet.com, “Some people inherit genetic disorders from their parents, while other changes are acquired changes or mutations in a preexisting gene or group of genes cause other genetic diseases. Genetic mutations can occur either randomly or due to some environmental exposure.” I want to discuss these random and/or acquired gene mutations on Monday from 3-4PM Central Time. If you’ve been diagnosed with a genetic disease, please let me know below and let’s talk about the “back-story” to some of these genetic mutations.

July 17th - 100% of the Alzheimer’s Disease patients analyzed thus far by our laboratory present fungal cells and fungal material in brain sections
Doug Talks About: 100% of the Alzheimer’s Disease patients analyzed thus far by our laboratory present fungal cells and fungal material in brain sections
My last physician lecture, entitled Mycotoxin Brain Hacking, was in 2018. At that time, I told of 128 research papers that linked fungal poisons (mycotoxins) to nerve cell and tissue damage. Today, there are well over 300 papers, a clear indication that fungal poisons cause nerve tissues damage. When nerve cells are damaged, many brain or pain conditions can exist. On Wednesday from 11-Noon Central Time, I will teach you what these research papers say and how it may apply to nerve conditions that you may suffer from. From back aches to Alzheimer’s, please don’t miss this informative, live. one-hour show. Thank you for sharing the content of my shows with friends and loved ones who may benefit from the information. Sadly, this information, although well documented scientifically, is not well known by physicians. This show may change many lives!

July 16th - This Medical Information Just Can’t be Accurate…..can it?
Doug Talks About: This Medical Information Just Can’t be Accurate…..can it?
Yes, fungus does that! Some fungal mycotoxins are called “endocrine disrupters.” They can and do wreak havoc throughout our hormone producing tissues. On Tuesday, from 3-4PM Central Time, I will teach that these endocrine disrupters are commonly found in everyone’s refrigerator, that they can cause insidious and debilitating illnesses and that our healthcare providers are most often unaware of their presence. If you suffer from hormone problems that aren’t being resolved

July 15th - The Shot you Got On Saturday
Doug talks about - The Shot you Got On Saturday
Whether we wanted it or not, we all received a shot on Saturday. No matter your political preference, when Donald Trump went down, our “cortisol” levels shot up. Cortisol is our stress hormone, and it is liberated by our adrenal glands that sit atop each kidney. So many things can happen to our body chemistry when our stress and cortisol levels elevate whether for a moment or long term. Decrease immunity is sometimes attributed to elevated cortisol levels, so don’t get into too many sugary carbs in your diet right now, as they may further contribute to lowered immunity. There are great supplements that help reduce the hormone cortisol in your bloodstream and we will discuss these on Monday from 3-4PM Central Time. If you find yourself feeling a bit off since Saturday afternoon, please join me and let’s talk about it! Doug

July 9th - Losing the war on cancer
Doug Talks About: Losing the war on cancer
Do you remember high school? If you received a test score and it was 31%, or 34% or even 3%, what grade did you get? You got an “F”, correct? I’m asking that for a reason. Out of 100 women diagnosed with metastatic breast cancer today, only 31 will be alive in 60 months. (31% 5-years effective cancer treatment rate) Out of 100 men diagnosed today with metastatic prostate cancer, only 34 will be alive in 60 months (34% 5-year effective cancer treatment rate). Only 3 out of 100 metastatic pancreatic cancer patients diagnosed today will be alive in 60 months (3% 5-year effective cancer treatment rate). Tomorrow during our live show from 3-4PM Central Time, 56
Americans will die of cancer. That’s about one cancer death per minute, every
minute, every hour, every month and every year. The older I get, the more deeply concerned I get with theseabysmal cancer survival statistics. I believe if we rewarded doctors for extending their cancer patients’ lives or curing them, we would incentivize success and see a lot of it! Instead, we tend to punish doctors who do not adhere to cancer “standards of care,” including chemotherapy, radiation and surgery. And just look how great those standards are working out! Sadly, once cancer begins spreading, your chances of being alive in 60 months are not good. What are we to do? Can we prevent this dreaded disease? Just by observing our failures in treating cancers, I believe we must try everything we can to prevent it. I have suggestions based on medical research. Join me on Tuesday from 3-4PM Central Time and please ask friends and family who are concerned about cancer to join us. See you then! - Doug

July 8th - The startling headline...the shocking conclusion
Doug Talks About: The startling headline...the shocking conclusion
Did you know that the liver cancer causing fungal mycotoxin, aflatoxin, is detected in corn by using a black light? The samples that are contaminated with aflatoxin turn a bright greenish color and are then discarded. Years ago, Pathologist Migdalia Arnan, MD, described green granules “glowing” within human cancer tissues when exposed to light. Interesting, right? Why am I telling you this? I believe that very often, cancers are initiated by fungal poisons (mycotoxins), or fungal infections might mimic cancer growths. My friend Luke Curtis, MD sent me a fascinating paper over the weekend, and it was “hot off the press!” The topic was on disease causing mold being discovered inside the homes of 90% of leukemia patients! Oh My Gosh! I can retire now! They’ve finally figured out the cause of leukemia! So many lives will be spared. Thank you, Lord! I haven’t been that excited since Christmas Eve of 1959! But the more I read, the more I realized the paper had nothing to do with inhaled mold induced leukemia. Rather, it seems to promote hospital air quality as being safer for cancer patients than the air quality in their leukemia patients homes. By 7PM Saturday evening I was deflated! So, I came out of retirement on Sunday afternoon and tomorrow I will be ready to deliver you this mindboggling paper. Please join me on Monday from 3-4PM Central Time, because this paper needs to be discussed and we all need to better understand why our brightest and best are concerned with poor air quality in our homes. Tell a friend who needs to know this! - Doug

July 2nd - Your Diet, Your Health, Your Choice
Doug Talks About: Your Diet, Your Health, Your Choice
Which diet works and why? Long ago, I developed a diet that was aimed at starving fungus, an organism that in its parasitic form, requires carbohydrates for survival. But long ago, little was known about fungal illness. Today, the scientific literature linking fungus and their poisonous mycotoxins to illness and death abounds. Now, more doctors are learning that in many cases, anti-fungal drugs are not enough to help their fungal infected patients. They must now learn what medical schools didn’t teach them-clinical nutrition Once parasitic fungi enter our body, restricting its food supply becomes essential. But which diet are they turning to and why? Today, from 3-4PM Central Time, we will discuss the one diet that traditional doctors love. We will then discuss more popular diets that we, the people love and why. If you suspect that fungus might be causing your symptoms, todays show is a must! Stopping fungus from spreading throughout your body is sometimes a function of starving it. So many people restore their health by eating properly. The sole remaining question is which diet works and why? Let’s talk! - Doug

July 1st - Do antibiotic benefits out weight antibiotic risks?
Doug Asks: Do antibiotic benefits out weight antibiotic risks?
Did you know that an antibiotic called Vancomycin is so strong that it is sometimes used for infections that other antibiotics cannot cure? In 2016, Dr Vincent Bruno published a paper that showed that if the bacteria, Staphylococcus aureus and the yeast, Candida albicans were placed into a test tube together, the bacteria actually became resistant (it didn’t work) to Vancomycin. Why is this relevant? Although researchers claim that “co-infections” (different germs contributing to a person’s symptoms, like bacteria and fungi), are fairly rare, one must question if the patient has a co-infection if the antibiotics do not cure it. The problem lies in assuming the infection is bacterial and treating it as such, only to later find that it was a fungal infection. Antibiotics seem to fuel yeast/fungal infections. Worse, as Dr Bruno’s research confirms, the worst bacterial infection in the world might resist the strongest antibiotic in the world…if a simple yeast, called Candida albicans is present. I’ve often wondered if people with co-infections get better for a period of time on an antibiotic, only to become very sick at some time in the near future—from the antibiotic somehow activating Candida albicans! Can this happen? Let’s talk on Monday from 3-4PM Central Time and see if you share my concerns! THANKS for watching and telling a friend! - Doug

June 27th - Bat Cave induced COVID and now The Bird Flu! Why do our winged friends want us sick or dead?
Doug Talks About: Bat Cave induced COVID and now The Bird Flu! Why do our winged friends want us sick or dead?
One of the most colorful baseball players in history was Yogi Berra, who once said, “It’s Déjà vu all over again!” Here we are 4 years after a horrible viral pandemic, talking about…..a horrible pending viral pandemic! Not surprisingly, this one is also being blamed on birds and some are taking this threat very seriously. Finland, I just read, plans to offer preemptive bird flu vaccination as soon as next week to some workers. They just bought 20,000 doses for those who are exposed to animals. The European Union has procured up to 40 million bird flu vaccinations and I didn’t know we had Bird Flu vaccinations yet! Will there be another pandemic? Will it be a fungal or viral pandemic and what might the difference be when trying to prevent it? Let’s talk on Thursday from 11-Noon Central Time, because preparation is everything! - Doug

June 25th - The Biggest Killer of We, The People
Doug Talks About: The Biggest Killer of We, The People
We learned yesterday that Lyme disease bacteria can cross the blood brain barrier and cause neurological symptoms, and that the antifungal drug Diflucan successfully treated neuroborrelioses by either significantly reducing the symptoms or completed resolving the disease. In the past you have also learned from me that certain viruses, like HIV, EPV and EBV became more virulent and dangerous when high levels of the Aspergillus fungal poison (mycotoxin), aflatoxin, were also present in the blood of the sufferers. I know that fungus may not cause all human illness, but I believe that its presence inside our body certainly poses a much higher risk of morbidity and mortality than our healthcare specialists are aware of. Join me Tuesday from 3-4PM Central Time and learn what one published scientific paper contends may be causing ill health in over 80% of the globe’s population, or 5.7 billion people. It is common to have a fungal linked illness. - Doug

I have an important meeting on Monday afternoon, and I must move my live social media show back one hour. This Monday only, please join me from 2-3PM Central Time instead of the regular 3-4PM time. I want to talk to the hundreds of thousands of you who were told that you had Lyme’s Disease, yet the courses of antibiotic treatments did not work. Would antifungals have worked for you? I’m so glad you asked! Join me on Monday and learn what researchers learned about Lyme’s Disease and fungus 20 years ago. Armed with this hard-to-find information, many of you might resolve your “Lyme’s” symptoms by thinking outside of the antibiotic bottle! Thanks for telling your friends! - Doug

June 20th - One Sure-Fire Way to Prevent Fungal Mycotoxin Caused Symptoms and/or Diseases; Don’t Inhale!
Doug Talks About: One Sure-Fire Way to Prevent Fungal Mycotoxin Caused Symptoms and/or Diseases; Don’t Inhale!
Mold is ubiquitous. According to experts in the field our most common exposure to disease causing mold is through inhalation. The American Lung Association states that indoor air is between 2 and 100% more polluted than outdoor air. This same organization also teaches us that we Americans spend 90% of our time indoors. You’re now beginning to better understand why all the restrictive diets and antifungal medications and/or supplements in the world will not defeat a systemic yeast/fungal infection if you’re living (and inhaling) in a polluted environment, And mold isn’t the only indoor pollutant in our homes. If The Kaufmann One Diet and antifungal prescriptive meds or supplements has failed you, don’t rule out fungus (mold) as the cause until you watch me on Thursday from 11-Noon Central Time. If your exposure to fungal mycotoxins is chronic, and you inhale, so will your symptoms be chronic. - Doug

Doug Talks About: Dying to help us... Sometimes doctors over reach
In their efforts to provide excellent medical care, I believe our doctors have crossed a line from purposefully trying to help their patients to inadvertently causing them harm. I don’t mean to disparage, rather to point out the facts as they are published. Today we will discuss misdiagnoses, and the overuse of lab tests, medications and surgeries. Please join me from 3-4PM Central Time and hear what I have to say. As we begin todays show, please know three important things; every decision you make in life has consequences, to err is human, and if Clinical Nutrition and Clinical Mycology were taught during medical training, today’s topic might be unnecessary. Please tell a friend to join us today! - Doug

June 17th - So Much Illness, So Little Knowledge
Doug Talks About: So Much Illness, So Little Knowledge
17 years ago, The American Academy of Microbiology stated, “Fungi are the cause of many outbreaks of disease but are mostly ignored…Fungi can cause a number of life-threatening diseases…Many people, scientists among them, are largely unaware.”
Time has a way of healing all wounds but based on the sheer number of people whom we have lost to our ongoing ignorance of fungal diseases, this wound isn’t healing well. Don’t be upset with our scientists today. As I have long stated, Mycology (the study of fungus) has, for some reason, been all but eliminated from medical training. Since that statement 17 years ago, today’s scientists are finally realizing that many, many maladies charted as “etiology unknown” in their patients’ charts are really fungal induced diseases. Thanks to scientists, we now know that heart disease, diabetes, neurological diseases and even cancers are caused in study animals by inoculating them with fungal mycotoxins. So why hasn’t one of them jumped for joy in learning he/she might win the Nobel Prize in Medicine for logically deducing that these identical mycotoxins induce the very same diseases in we humans? Don’t hold your breath, but do join me from 3-4PM Central Time on Monday to see if we can figure out what our brightest and best have not been able to. More importantly, let’s see if we can guide your own doctor to scratching the words “etiology unknown” out of your medical chart! Tell a friend to watch! - Doug

June 13th - Where is the incentive to cure any disease in America?
Doug Asks: Where is the incentive to cure any disease in America?
Fungal poisons, called “mycotoxins,” cause many symptoms and diseases. While some are carcinogenic, others are neurotoxic. This is well documented, scientifically. What causes cancer and nerve disorders? To me, the standard medical answer, “we just don’t know” isn’t acceptable any longer. If I had possession of the “medical research checkbook,” no one would get another dime of funding until mycotoxins, which are well established as contributing to both neurological problems and cancer, were thoroughly tested and completely ruled out as a cause of either of these dreaded disorders. In 2020, Scientific America stated, “The costs of cancer care have surged 40% in the last decade, from $125 billion in 2010 to $175 billion in 2020 (projected).” More money is not going to fix this! In 2007, Dr Edmond Shenassa, from Brown University, was skeptical before he discovered that inhaling indoor mold was linked to depression. “We found a solid association between depression and living in a damp, moldy home.” On Thursday morning from 11-Noon Central Time, I’m going to introduce you to a possible cause of your lumps and bumps and/or your nerve problems. Please always share this lifesaving information with your doctor. Join me and tell your friends to watch this important discussion. Remember, I’ll go live on Thursday from 11AM until Noon Central Time. - Doug

June 11th - Remember when eggs raised cholesterol levels? Now the reverse is true!
Doug Talks About: Remember when eggs raised cholesterol levels? Now the reverse is true!
The sweetener I have been using for decades, Xylitol, is apparently now increasing my risk of a heart attack and stroke. I’m glad I didn’t know this 10 years ago, or I could have died! I’ll never forget inviting my parents to my house for a great dinner one evening in the 1970’s complete with artichokes, which mom loved. They had to decline because dads heart specialist had him on a low salt diet for his heart problems…and artichokes apparently have too much salt in them. He was also taking aspirin daily and had to avoid eggs since they raised his risk of elevated fat levels in his blood. Help me with this, please. Let’s talk about yesteryears medical advice as opposed to today’s medical advice. Was their advice better in 1960, or is it better today? Much has changed, hasn’t it?

June 10th - Are you sick simply because you are inhaling?
Doug Asks: Are you sick simply because you are inhaling?
Inhaling fungi that produce poisons (mycotoxins) is common, according to scientific studies. Have you ever had a home that leaked water? Have you discovered rotted wood inside your home? Do the bathroom windows collect moisture when someone is using the shower? Do you, your family or your pets, have chronic health problems that doctors/veterinarians cannot figure out? I think Lisa can help you!
Today I will be joined by Lisa Chase, whose husband, Chris, is a founding partner of Pionair, an indoor air cleaning company that developed this incredible technology that I call
“air detox in a box." He developed it over 20 years ago and is still in production today--for a reason. Please watch from 3-4PM Central Time and learn what the Pionair is and what it can do for those of you who suspect mold in your home/office. Your questions to Lisa are welcomed! - Doug

Doug Talks About: Do heart doctors know this?
Do you have high blood pressure or other cardiovascular problems? On Thursday morning from 9:30-10:30AM Central Time, I’ll offer data and some recommendations on why an anti-fungal program might work so well for heart conditions-after all, they are the leading causes of death in America and the numbers are climbing. I visited heart.com, the website representing the American Heart Association, and was immediately met with a big blue button requesting a donation and a sentence that read, “The most important behavioural risk factors of heart disease and stroke are unhealthy diet, physical inactivity, tobacco use and harmful use of alcohol. First, my trust faded because they spelled “behavioral” wrong! Then I delved into what they meant by an unhealth diet and the harmful use of alcohol. I’m always fascinated to learn what medical websites say about these things. Join me and let’s talk about the heart of the matter! There won’t be much competition for incoming questions so jump on at 9:30 tomorrow AM! - Doug

In 2019, we learned from AARP that the vast majority of Americans surveyed (80%) say they take at least one prescription medication. I believe that the pharmaceutical industry provides a very valuable service to we, the people! I’ll explain today. Also, a German firm has published laboratory testing data on the “mycotoxin load” in our American corn supply. 168 corn samples taken from 18 states reveals very high and worsening mycotoxin content.

June 3rd - Can Fungus cause a pandemic?
Doug Asks: Can Fungus cause a pandemic?
In June 2020, I presented my COVID-19 hypothesis to an audience of health professionals who were interested in finding the etiology (cause) of COVID-19. I have always believed that COVID-19 was due to an improperly understood, but potentially very deadly hybrid infection, fueled by the “COVID-19 standards of care” protocols that were being used. My presentation begged the question, “could COVID-19 be a genetic hybrid disease?” On Monday, I’ll share a few graphics of that 4-year-old presentation with you, because my exact hypothesis, is likely largely relevant to a headline that appeared yesterday (6/2/24) on the medical website, Medscape.com. The headline read, “Could A Fungal Infection Cause A Future Pandemic?” Indeed, it could based on a naturally occurring phenomenon called “genetic fusion” that I believe was inadvertently woven into the fabric of COVID-19. Let’s talk about it on Monday, from 3-4PM Central Time. Don’t let the big words frighten you off…it’s quite simple, but just in case we all must be prepared. - Doug

May 30th - Is Cancer a preventable disease?
Doug Talks About: Is Cancer a preventable disease?
According to Medical Xpress, “in 2020, 19 million people around the world received a cancer diagnosis. By 2040, that number is expected to reach 28 million.” Cancer is big business, but apparently understanding the cause of it is not. On Thursday morning from 11-Noon Central Time, I’m going to talk about what I am doing personally to try to prevent cancer, since I come from a family of 7, 5 of whom have had cancer. To prevent any disease, I believe you must first know its cause. Cancer, we are told, will never be cured, because it is over 100 diseases. Really? While I agree that perhaps 100 mycotoxins can activate DNA mutations, I remain uncertain that finding a cause is a priority. Thanks for joining me and I look forward to teaching you what I know about this dreaded disease and its link to fungus. - Doug
