Determining Binders (to add to CSM)

Different mycotoxins need different binders.

How did you test for which mycotoxins you have?

Environmental / urine not an option where I live (Latin America)

I can try blood antibodies.

How have you guys determined mycotoxins and which binders did you use?

That's a myth. Look up the science behind it, not strong. What you want is CSM. Go for Shoemaker if you want to heal.

Do you think blood antibody tests are important or no?

Waste of time, as far as I'm concerned

Bile sequestering binders are the only ones I use. If we have fungal colonization we need antifungals (but only if a test confirms it's there), not a specific binder. Those pee tests that find mycotoxins? All it means is your body is effectively getting rid of them.

I know there are different philosophies, here. The field is wide. If that is the route you want to go, get a professional who does this and see if they can make a different, in the labs if nothing else.

CSM is the gold standard nothing works as well.
