Toxins can be found everywhere. They’re in household chemicals, in our food, our drinking water, and in the air we breathe. Even when we take steps to live as contaminant-free as possible, everyone faces exposure to toxic chemicals, both organic and inorganic.

 

Some toxins are natural, like mold spores, while others are human-produced, such as phthalates and glyphosate. No matter where they come from or how they’re produced, all toxins will sicken you. It may take just a few hours, or it might take years, but unless they’re purged and cleaned from your body, toxins can linger in your system for years.

 

This is where toxic binders come into play. These dietary supplements help remove these harmful toxins from your body. Here’s a bit more about toxin binders, why they go beyond the role of your liver, and how you can benefit from them.

 

Doesn’t the Liver Get Rid of All Toxins?

 

Some toxins are chemically inert and cannot be excreted easily, if at all, by the kidneys and liver. Although the kidneys and liver are efficient at removing many harmful substances from the blood, some toxins manage to keep circulating.

 

One way this happens is toxin recirculation, in which the liver removes harmful substances from the bloodstream, concentrating them in bile, and passing them into the small intestine where they’re excreted. But some toxins get reabsorbed once reaching the intestines, then re-enter the bloodstream and continue to circulate throughout the body.

 

It’s this tendency of persistent toxins to pass from the digestive tract, into the liver, then back into the bloodstream, that causes long-lasting harm from even a low level of toxin consumption.

 

What are Toxin Binders?

 

Binders are dietary supplements that work by chemically attaching to harmful substances in the body through a process called adsorption. Binders latch onto the toxins, rendering them much easier for the body to excrete, causing your toxin burden to plummet, leading to improved overall health.

 

Binders not only directly remove poisons from your bloodstream, but they also help reduce stress on the liver and kidneys.

 

What Can Binders Remove?

 

Toxin binders can remove the following and more:

  • Mycotoxins from mold and other fungal poisons
  • Toxic heavy metals, like mercury, cadmium, arsenic, and lead
  • Toxic light metals, such as aluminum
  • Benzene
  • Biotoxins from parasites, including Lyme disease
  • Biotoxins from bacteria, like ammonia
  • Inorganic toxic particles, such as microplastic particles
  • Pesticide residue
  • Herbicide contaminants, such as glyphosate
  • Phthalates
  • PFAS (“Forever Chemicals”)


The Most Effective Toxin Binders

 

Activated Charcoal. When all-natural substances like coconut hulls are burned at high temperatures, under pressure, and in the presence of oxygen, activated charcoal is the result. It has tiny pores and an enormous surface area. This large surface areas makes it easier for it to bind more toxins than something that has a smooth surface. It’s also negatively charged, which helps attract inert toxins. Activated charcoal has been used as an antidote for poisoning for hundreds of years and still is.

 

Fluvic and Humic Acid. Fluvic and humic acid are powerful toxin binders, particularly effective for cleansing the body from heavy metals. Fluvic acid also supports the health of helpful bacteria in the digestive tract by removing chemicals that impair their growth.

 

Zeolite Clinoptilolite Micronized. Zeolite clinoptilolite (micronized) is a naturally occurring mineral with a microscopic, honeycombed structure and negative electric charge that allows it to both absorb and adsorb vast quantities of toxic substances, making it one of the most effective binders known.

 

Zeolite clinoptilolite is particularly effective in cleansing the body of heavy metals, including mercury, lead, arsenic, and cadmium. It’s also been proven to be effective as a water purifier and virus killer.

 

Micronized zeolite clinoptilolite has also been found to be effective at reducing oxidative stress, a condition that leads to systemic inflammation and chronic illness.

 

Which Toxin Binders Should I Use?

 

Your choice of toxin binder depends on the toxins you want to eliminate from your body. Because of the amount and variety of environmental and biological toxins we are exposed to every day, a combination approach of binders aimed at different types of toxins delivers the most comprehensive solution to systemic toxin contamination.

 

The best binders are effective for more than one kind of toxin, allowing you to get a wide range of benefits. That’s important because no single binder is a magic bullet for every kind of toxin contamination. Consider also that the best binders include ingredients that encourage cell and tissue healing and growth, as well as improving the overall health of your body.

 

The most effective binders include the following combinations:

 

BioToxin Binder

BioToxin binder, by CellCore Biosciences, eliminates toxins from fungal contamination, including mold mycotoxins, toxins from bacteria, ammonia, and candida albicans. It gets these benefits from molybdenum, a mineral that the body needs to bind and neutralize organic toxins and harmful chemicals produced from fungi.

 

Molybdenum is also required to produce enzymes that break down some of the most toxic substances found in the body, including sulfites. Sulfites are found in some foods where they work as preservatives, but they also occur naturally. A molybdenum deficiency causes chronic diarrhea and impairs the body’s ability to absorb nutrients.

 

BioToxin Binder also contains extracts of humic and fulvic acid, which can do things like:

  • Binding and purging ammonia arising from harmful bacteria reproducing
  • Helping to rebuild sulfur pathways
  • Removing mycotoxins, like those from aspergillus niger.
HM-ET Binder

Heavy Metal-Environmental Toxin (HM-ET), by CellCore Biosciences, helps remove heavy metal and environmental toxins like glyphosate from the body through the chelation process. Chelation occurs when a binding agent binds to a metal, rendering it inert and ready to be passed out of the body.

 

HM-ET binder contains fulvic and humic acid, which binds to all these toxic metals and leaves them chemically inactive and easy for the body to eliminate. It also contains Bioactive Carbon, which removes parasites and toxic biofilm from the gut.

 

It’s important to remove heavy metals from the body, as Heavy metal poisoning involves ingestion of arsenic, mercury, lead, or cadmium, and leads to long-term, chronic illnesses. Luckily, HM-ET excels at cleansing toxic metals from the body.

 

UltraBinder

UltraBinder, by Quicksilver Scientific, contains zeolite, activated charcoal, and bentonite clay. This combination targets pesticide and herbicidal residue, food additives, and the waste products of bacteria and mold infections.

 

ViRadChem Binder

VirRadchem Binder, by CellCore Biosciences, is aimed at systemically removing the toxic byproducts of viruses, radiation, and chemicals. It works by entering cells and chelating (binding) toxins like those from Lyme disease, as well as the herbicide ingredient glyphosate. It also helps break the bonds between fungal toxins and cell membranes, allowing them to be neutralized and flushed out of the body.

ViRadChem contains twelve amino acids which are required for the healing and regeneration of cells and tissues harmed by biotoxins.

 

Are Toxic Binders Right For Me?

 

Binders use their unique molecular and chemical properties to attach themselves to organic and inorganic toxins, pollutants, and heavy metals. These special properties of binders also allow them to be passed out of the body easily, taking their toxic passengers with them. Consider speaking to a medical professional about toxic binders and if they can help you cleanse your body of unwanted toxins to promote better health all around.
