A member asked:

How much exposure to mould in food can increase cancer risk? i breathed in yoghurt that had been left out of fridge for a couple of weeks and weeks old mouldy rubbish for a couple of minutes. would i experience symptoms if i was exposed to aflatoxin?

What you described is not a health risk. Please note that mold spores are in the air and all of us are constantly exposed to molds. If you did not eat the moldy food you were not exposed to aflatoxin. For healthy diet: http://www.choosemyplate.gov/., exercise 30 minutes/day, drink enough water daily so your urine is mostly colorless, have safe sex, no tobacco alcohol weed or street drugs.
