BINDERS
Doctors who treat mold illness generally prescribe Cholestyromine to their patients for binding biotoxins. Cholestyromine is the #1 drug for biotoxin illness, and is also a cholesterol lowering medication that binds to bile acids that contain toxins. So, while it may be helping with mold illness, it's also lowering cholesterol which is important for brain and hormone health. Because this drug is a powerful binder, it will worsen constipation and if you are mold sick, you probably already have gut health and motility issues. Cholestyromine works by interrupting the re-absorption and allowing bile acids to be removed through fecal matter.
If Cholestyromine does not resonate got you and you want a more natural, less toxic binder, these options are all excellent.
Option 1: Toxafix
Charcoal & Pectin
Specialized combination of natural substances to support the body in the effective release of toxins through the gastrointestinal tract. Activated charcoal from coconut shell is a porous, negatively-charged substance that attracts free radicals and unwanted elements and pectin is a complex carbohydrate that supports digestive regularity and motility. It is the ideal formula for patients concerned with exposure to environmental toxins, metals, microbes, and mold.

Option 2: Beets!
The best non-pharmaceutical binder is BEETS! Yes, the vegetable. Many vegetables and plant materials have properties that aid in removing toxins from the body, beets top that list. Beets produce the same effect and they do not promote constipation, they alleviate it! Beets are the most effective vegetable for binding bile acids. So, if you are mold sick and you are looking to bind toxins and relieve constipation while improving gut health, Beets are worth considering.

Option 3: BioToxin Binder
BioToxin Binder contains long-, medium-, and short-chain carbons which act in different ways depending on where they are in the body. That’s the key: they get to different areas of the body, working systemically, and not just in the gut. BioToxin Binder contains polyelectrolytes, polysaccharides, amino acids, and organic acids, and supports cellular energy production. This ability to promote life sets it apart from older spent carbons and renders them obsolete.
Ingredients: Bioactive Carbon Humic and fulvic, Molybendum, Extracts of broccoli sprout, Extracts of Yucca Root
