>>>>Because aflatoxins, especially aflatoxin B1, are potent carcinogens in some animals, there is interest in the effects of long-term exposure to low levels of these important mycotoxins on humans . In 1988, the IARC placed aflatoxin B1 on the list of human carcinogens. This is supported by a number of epidemiological studies done in Asia and Africa that have demonstrated a positive association between dietary aflatoxins and Liver Cell Cancer (LCC) .
****Additionally, the expression of aflatoxin-related diseases in humans may be influenced by factors such as age, sex, nutritional status, and/or concurrent exposure to other causative agents such as viral hepatitis (HBV) or parasite infestation.****

>>>In Raw Agricultural Products :

Aflatoxins often occur in crops in the field prior to harvest. Postharvest contamination can occur if crop drying is delayed and during storage of the crop if water is allowed to exceed critical values for the mold growth. Insect or rodent infestations facilitate mold invasion of some stored commodities.

Aflatoxins are detected occasionally in milk, cheese, corn, peanuts, cottonseed, nuts, almonds, figs, spices, and a variety of other foods and feeds . Milk, eggs, and meat products are sometimes contaminated because of the animal consumption of aflatoxin-contaminated feed . However, the commodities with the highest risk of aflatoxin contamination are corn, peanuts, and cottonseed.


From an interview with Hulda Clark :
>>>But then I did ask one more question, why are some people getting the cancers while other people, who are using the products with isopropyl alcohol in them and getting the same parasites and having the same life habits such as smoking and so on, why do some of them not get cancer? And I found the answer to that to be aflatoxin consumption. We have a lot of microtoxins or molds in our foods, but it is aflatoxins that's associated with isopropyl alcohol presence. In other words, if everybody who has an isopropyl alcohol accumulation (can't metabolize it anymore) and is at great risk for getting cancer has aflatoxin accumulation in their liver from eating moldy foods and that could go to a kind of a familial cause. Maybe some families cannot detoxify aflatoxin as well as others or they're simply eating more. By the time their eating a lot of peanuts and peanut butter and moldy bread, you're set up for aflatoxin damage to the liver. So that's the chain of events where I have it so far.
