The limbic system, especially the amygdala, assigns safety or threat meanings to stimuli based on past experience. Food sensitivities, mold reactivity, and pathogen hypersensitivity are explained as threat-association responses rather than imaginary symptoms. A sensitized limbic system can drive immune overactivation in response to inputs a regulated system would handle quietly. Brain retraining is described as rerouting habitual limbic responses through self-directed neuroplasticity.
