Anything can mold as long as there is moisture or a food source. Carpet, including those made of natural fibers such as wool, that is kept clean and dry shouldn’t have a mold problem.

There are hundreds of thousands of types of molds. All are fungi, which means they are many-celled organisms that reproduce by sending tiny seeds called spores into the air. Molds need four things to grow: food, air, the right temperature and water. Although fungi grow naturally "outdoors", molds are very common in buildings and homes and will grow anywhere indoors where there is sufficient moisture.

The average American’s daily intake of fiber is about 5 to 14 grams per day. However, recommendations from the National Academy of Sciences, Institute of Medicine are that adults consume 21 – 30 grams or dietary fiber per day, depending on age and gender. High intake of dietary fiber has been linked to a lower risk of heart disease in a number of large studies that followed people for many years [1, 2].

A fungus problem usually starts with an injury or harsh chemicals under the nail plate at the free edge, creating a pocket in which the fungus can develop. It grows through the nail, turning black/green when reaching the top. Filing will not kill it, This type of problem must be looked at by a doctor. Yeast is perhaps the most common. The free edge pulls away from the plate, and if not checked can continue to the matrix area. Mold can happen anywhere moisture collects.

Fiber Production: Alpaca fiber is luxurious! An alpaca produces from four to ten pounds of fiber per year. The fleece contains no lanolin, is hypoallergenic, and is usually relatively clean and dry. Many hand spinners process the raw fleece though some prefer to soak it to remove dust and debris. Alpaca fiber is stronger and more durable than sheep's wool and is valued for its unique silky feel.

Fiber is found inside the cell walls of fruits and green vegetables. From the round shape of an apple, to the majestic height of a Redwood, it's what gives plants their rigid structure. Consuming it aids our digestive system in elimination. In basic terms, fiber is plant matter that we cannot digest, which is why it passes through the body. Fiber comes in two varieties, water-soluble and insoluble. Soluble fiber is found in legumes, fruits, and psyllium seed, for example.

Aim for 40 grams of fiber per day. Including a variety of whole foods in your diet such as beans, vegetables, fruits, and whole grains will help you to meet your fiber needs. Other foods such as meat and dairy products contain zero fiber.

Fiber is a natural component of many vegetables, fruits, beans, grains and nuts. Different plants contain different types of fiber, but they all contribute to a healthy digestive system.
