Mycotoxin results Future of the protocol
- other binders, maybe for aflatoxin Killing protocol
- nystatin, caprylic acid, oregano oil, undecyclenic acid, berberine Three day fast and reduced inflammation
Binders (rotate these, don’t take all at once):
- Activated charcoal - 1-2g, 2x/day, away from food/meds (2+ hours)
- Bentonite clay - 1-2 tsp in water, away from meals
- Chlorella - 3-6g/day
- Cholestyramine (prescription, but most effective for many mycotoxins)
Glutathione support:
- Liposomal glutathione - 500-1000mg/day
- NAC - 600-1200mg, 2x/day
- Alpha-lipoic acid - 300-600mg/day
Liver support:
- Milk thistle - 200-400mg standardized extract, 2-3x/day
- Phosphatidylcholine - supports cell membranes
Anti-inflammatory (for neuro):
- Curcumin (liposomal or with piperine) - 1000-2000mg/day
- Omega-3s (high EPA/DHA) - 2-3g/day
- Resveratrol - 200-500mg/day
Antifungal (if colonization confirmed):
- Nystatin (prescription preferred)
- Caprylic acid - 1000-2000mg with meals
- Oregano oil - follow label, cycles of 2 weeks on/off
Critical notes:
- Space binders 2+ hours from everything else
- Start low, go slow - die-off can worsen symptoms temporarily
- Stay hydrated, support drainage (sauna if tolerated)
- Address the source or you’re spinning wheels
Working with a practitioner experienced in mold illness (CIRS protocol) would optimize this.
Most comparable OTC antifungals for gut:
Caprylic acid - Probably closest to nystatin functionally
- Disrupts fungal cell membranes
- Stays in the gut (not systemic)
- Dose: 1000-2000mg with each meal
- Look for delayed-release or time-release formulas so it reaches lower GI
Undecylenic acid (from castor oil)
- Similar mechanism to caprylic acid, sometimes considered stronger
- 200-250mg, 3x/day with meals
- Often combined with caprylic acid in formulas
Saccharomyces boulardii (probiotic yeast)
- Competes with pathogenic fungi
- Produces caprylic acid naturally
- 5-10 billion CFU/day
- Won’t be killed by antifungals like bacteria-based probiotics
Oregano oil
- Strong antimicrobial, including antifungal
- 150-200mg standardized extract (minimum 70% carvacrol), 2-3x/day
- Use cycles: 2 weeks on, 1-2 weeks off
- Can be harsh on gut, take with food
Berberine
- Broad antimicrobial including antifungal
- 500mg, 2-3x/day
- Also helps with blood sugar
Combination approach often works better - rotate or combine 2-3 of these rather than relying on just one. Start one at a time to monitor tolerance.
