Guest guest Posted January 9, 2006 Report Share Posted January 9, 2006 ..>>>>>>>The crucial issue of mycotoxins is often ignored. Mycotoxins are not killed by antifungals like diflucan. Of course Lyme and many other infections are both easily missed and are killed by Diflucan.

Guest guest Posted January 9, 2006 Report Share Posted January 9, 2006 Rosie, By definition, as I understand, a toxin is not a living substance. It is a chemical compound that is poisonous therefore it can not be " killed " . There is nothing living to kill! To rid the body of toxins there must be a way to remove the toxin... or to excrete the toxin... or to chemically neutralize the toxin. Most mycotoxins seem to be particulate matter of micron size that are easily aerosolized..

Guest guest Posted January 9, 2006 Report Share Posted January 9, 2006 Cholestramine therapy or CSM is the gold standard for toxin removal- find lots of info in files and archives- must get a perscription for it. -- In , " kengibs " <jkg4902@h...> wrote: > > Rosie, > > By definition, as I understand, a toxin is not a living substance. > It is a chemical compound that is poisonous therefore it can not > be " killed " .

Guest guest Posted January 9, 2006 Report Share Posted January 9, 2006 Like drugs, toxins are usually metabolized, which is usually when they do their damage, like killing cells.. For example, I saw a TV show on the fed-de-lance snake in Costa Rica the other day, a poisonous snake which has really powerful venom.. a very strong toxic. When the snake bites people, basically, it injects a strong dose of this 'toxin' into the body where it appears to kill everything it touches at a high enough concentration. (as the cells die, they often 'necrotize' which means they lose their integrity and collapse, and start to fester, which can cause gangrene.. Often, people have to have legs or arms amputated...) Some mycotoxins do similar things, killing cells that they come into contact with in concentrations above a certain amount. This appears to even happen in the brain, unfortunately. The way I understand it, although I really don't know that much, is that some parts of the brain are 'plastic' - in other words, over time, they grow new cells, but damage in other parts appears to (as far as I know so far) irreversible.. Thats why strokes can kill or permanently alter people's lives.. a stroke is either a broken blood vessel (causing bleeding) or clogged blood vessel (causing oxygen starvation) in a part of the brain. Kind of like someone went in and chopped out a part of your brain. When toxins cause brain damage they typically kill cells in a certain area, which appears to be dependent on too many factors to describe.. from what I understand, the reasons why this happens where it does is still a developing area.. but thse dead cells die and the space is filled in by other stuff.. 'plaque' or aspergilliomas, in some cases of mold exposure.. or ... But its not brain tissue.. And whatever was there before, whatever functionality, memories, skills, or ??? is gone.. When toxins cause DNA damage, this can result in cancer.. sometimes years later.. when they cause nerve damage, this can cause numbness, inability to move something, pain or blindness/deafness, loss of taste, smell, etc. Sometimes, toxins accumulate in parts of the body, like 'adipose tissue' (fat cells) or in lymph glands, etc. Then there may be ways to 'cleanse' them from the body.. In the case of some mycotoxins, some of the mycotoxin, after it has already circulated around your body a bit (unless you absorbed it through eating it, which is less likely than inhalation for most of us) appear to be filtered out of the blood by your liver, -which could receive some damage in that process.. then - in SOME people, around 1 in 5, who have certain HLA-DR types, they seem to collect in the bile salts and acids and get reabsorbed in the intestine.. going back into the bloodstream to begin the process once again.. that is what cholestyramine is used for, to 'bind with' the bile acids, causing them to be excereted, along with any toxins in them.. Then your body has to make new ones with cholesterol.. and the new ones dont have that toxin in them.. so this cleans some mycotoxins out of that loop that they might be in.. Not all.. as there are a lot of mycotoxins that don't fit this pattern.. from what I know the ergot alkaloids and the estrogen-like compounds don't..for example.. They still do whatever they do uneffected by cholestyramine.. Other toxins, like heavy metals (lead, mercury, cadmium, etc. ) can be 'chelated' out of the body.. This is a different process entirely.. however, people often confuse it with the 'binding' that occurs with cholestyramine because both involve eating something that assists the body in removing (a) toxin(s) But I would NOT rely on either to solve a problem, especially when children were involved.. they just can be useful in say, preventing ACUTE effects from doing really serious damage while a solution to the ongoing exposure can be worked out.
