Guest guest Posted December 3, 2006 Report Share Posted December 3, 2006 A search for agar and mycotoxins reveals LOTS about agar being used (in various petri dishes, etc) to GROW mold and produce mycotoxins, but nothing that I have been able to find on a use for binding mycotoxins.

Guest guest Posted December 4, 2006 Report Share Posted December 4, 2006 Neither chorella or lechithin bind mycotoxins. Activated charcoal is the only OTC mycotoxin-binder that I am aware of. Cholestyramine is much more effective than activated charcoal too. Its worth trying, if you are really curious if mycotoxins in enterhepatic recirculation are responsible for any of your health issues. People often confuse biotoxin binding with chelation, because they sound like they do similar things, but the substances involved are completely different. Chorella, to the best of my knowledge, won't do anything to help mycotoxicosis. OTOH, its a good supplement to take for other reasons. Tumeric is different, because of its neuroprotective abilities. But it is coming at the problem from a completely different angle. Cholestyramine is really an eye-opener.

It is the " Dissociation Constant " of toxin release from receptors. This is not solely a question of toxic dose from exposure to toxins outside the body. Biotoxin illness is mediated by whether sufficient upregulation occurs to disturb the equilibrium of the ion gradient that keeps the ionophore toxins bound to their receptors in the fat cells in a " molecular bear trap " . This is a process that can be visualized by thinking of osmosis, except that instead of water molecules responding to disparity of solute concentrations, dissociation of toxins is based on electrostatic principles of attraction. CSM can soak up enough recirculating toxins to cause " dissociation " : The sudden release of endogenous toxins causes an inflammatory cascade which increases the level of cytokines so dramatically that the " intensification " reaction can be more damaging than an exposure to a toxic building. If someone with the double dreaded mold gene goes through this " intensification " , they have the most extreme form of metabolic inadequacy to clear these recirculating toxins. This really throws people off the track, because they suffer even more intensely just when the " allergy " model of illness says they should be improving. Surviving the " Herx " (It's not really a tradition Herx, but the word works anyway) is absolutely brutal, but Dr. Shoemaker has worked out ways to dampen down the upregulation with Pioglitazone. I haven't tried this myself, but I like the fact that Dr Shoemaker is proposing an incredibly logical explanation for all the sensations I have experienced. And others HAVE benefitted by this protocol. To understand what separates the fundamental mechanism of biotoxin mediated responses that are " upstream " of genetic HLA variables, you must read " Solving the Herxheimer " in Desperation Medicine. - Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[Non-text portions of this message have been removed] ******Thanks for your responses - this a totally new area for me. where do mycotoxins come from? are we genetically weak at excreting these toxins/ what protocol do you follow yourself? So what in your opinion are the natural best alternatives to cholesteramine ie just charcoal or are there others to consider and why ??? Im concentrating my efforts on these areas : 1) Fatty liver 2) Bile flow 3) Binding toxins / mycotoxins in enterhepatic recirculation Regards CS Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted December 6, 2006 Report Share Posted December 6, 2006 I think that you should try to talk with Dr. Shoemaker about cholestyramine and mold-related medical issues if you can. He is clearly in a class by himself as far as this stuff. The kinds of things I write are just guesses, and I have no medical background at all, just someone who had the misfortune to get slammed by mold for a long time who was also able to do some searching on the Net. (most aren't so lucky) BTW, I agree with everything I remember saying about this stuff, except perhaps I don't know if he realizes how hard it is for city dwellers who are sick and unemployed to 'just move' - > . > > > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yet, I can't complain. I was very lucky because I had always known that I needed a " plan B " and had already made a backup escape strategy, which - as you know - is an RV. And when I recovered, I could go back to work, part time. So now I tell others that it behooves them to prepare early, while you still can, and if you can - as I did. If you can't, as you know, nobody will save you. No matter what your difficulties, biotoxin illness doesn't care and it has no mercy whatsoever. If you cannot move and interventions have failed to alter the illness progression - one can expect the illness to inexorably progress to inevitable doom. Only by making a " wild leap " do you have a chance to escape before it is too late - if this is your manner of illness. And remember when I was trying to pursuade you to make the jump earlier than later, because the sicker you get, the fewer resources, less health, and even fewer options remain - as you are now so reactive that most places are unbearable? Despite all the difficulty involved, you can see now that you had absolutely no choice in the matter, and it would have been far better to do what needed to be done sooner than later. And now I see that you are in the same frustrating position of trying to warn others in time to keep them from becoming like you, and finding just as I did, that they simply cannot believe that the choice is not under their control. Because once you cross the threshold, there's no going back. - Subject: Anyone else itch underneath their skin/gums...)
