Re: OT: Mycotoxins and Horse Health Covered in Forum

[Guest guest]

KC, I've heard this about this story before. I also seem to recall that Dr.

Shoemaker was called for consultation or may be I'm just dreaming it. I do

remember hearing about it & I'm pretty sure he was involved with it in some

way.

I found this article to be very interesting for several reasons and

the location this forum took place. They called specialists together

for a special meeting to protect their high dollar horses, but yet

they don't seem to do too much of this for humans. The medication

they use " absorbants " has also been used for humans, including the

seaweed extract for mycotoxin poisoning.

I'm confused. Two people on another forum said seaweed extracts didn't do a

thing to mop up mycotoxins. Can you post articles that I can read? Thanks

Me too.

Also, PubMed says nothing, zilch - about agar being used to bind

mycotoxins.

OTOH, there is quite a bit about cholestyramine being used to remove

mycotoxins and other low-molecular weight toxins from

enterohepatic recirculation.
