Each 4 grams of UltraBinder® delivers 2 g of a proprietary binder blend. A serving size is 1 teaspoon. Each bottle contains 30 servings.
The list of toxic substances we encounter in daily life is long: heavy metals, pesticides, herbicides, hormone mimics, drug residues, food additives, and mold and bacterial toxins.
UltraBinder can take on that toxic load with a carefully formulated combination of bentonite clay, activated charcoal, chitosan and Quicksilver Scientific’s proprietary mercury-binding complex, IMD Intestinal Cleanse.
Each binder has a strong ability to bind different types of toxins. For example, IMD is made of silica-based compounds, which support the gut to intercept and neutralize toxins.
Because binders can be constipating, soothing and mildly laxative agents such as gum of aloe vera are added. They support the health of the intestinal lining, normal gut motility and the growth of friendly flora.
Ultra Binder is an optimized combination of USP Sodium Bentonite Clay, Activated Charcoal, Chitosan, Fibregum Bio (Acacia Gum), BiAloe (Aloe Vera), and a proprietary thiol-functionalized silica.
Activated Charcoal effectively binds LPS, pesticides, herbicides, persistent organic pollutants, and mold toxins.*
Bentonite Clay binds aflatoxin as well as other mold toxins.*
Chitosan binds to bile and toxins that are secreted with it including heavy metals, polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs), phthalates, and BPA.*
Fibregum Bio (Acacia Gum) supports the gastrointestinal mucosa health, the growth of friendly flora, and normal gastrointestinal function.* It is a low FODMAP friendly prebiotic fiber.
Aloe Vera has a soothing effect on the gastric mucosa, and minimizes gastric side effects which can occur when binders are taken alone.*
The process of detoxification involves many steps, one of which is the transport of toxins out of the body. Often, toxins are released from deeper tissues, due to biliary elimination into the gut, diet, or dysbiotic gastrointestinal flora. When proper binding agents are included to capture and remove these toxins from the body, mucous toxins are absorbed or reabsorbed leading back to toxicity.*
Many types of binders exist which all have a different affinity for various types of toxins (metals, endotoxin (LPS), and other products of dysbiosis or microbial die-off. An optimal binder blend will thus include a balance of various binders.
