Toby Yo’s Detox Dust Ingredients — How They Work

1. Activated Charcoal (Medical Grade)

• How it works: Acts like a porous sponge, adsorbing (not absorbing) toxins through its massive surface area.

• Uses: Binds to pesticides, heavy metals, drugs, mycotoxins, metabolic waste, and gut-derived endotoxins.

• Research & Benefits:

• Used in emergency medicine for poisonings.

• Studies show it reduces uremic toxins and can help with gas and bloating.

• Historical Use: Ancient Egyptians and Ayurvedic practitioners used it for water purification and digestive ailments.

2. Bentonite Clay

• How it works: Swells upon contact with water, pulling toxins via ionic exchange. Binds pathogens, heavy metals, and environmental toxins.

• Uses: Mold detox, radiation exposure, skin healing, gut repair.

• Research & Benefits:

• Binds aflatoxins (mold toxins) effectively.

• Helps with IBS, diarrhea, and leaky gut.

• Historical Use: Used by Native Americans and various tribes for stomach illnesses and wound healing.

3. Zeolite (Micronized)

• How it works: A volcanic mineral with a crystalline structure that traps heavy metals and positively charged toxins.

• Uses: Heavy metal detox (especially lead, cadmium, mercury), ammonia removal, and mold support.

• Research & Benefits:

• Clinical trials show its safety and efficacy for reducing heavy metal loads.

• Supports microbiome balance and reduces oxidative stress.

• Note: Micronized zeolite works in the GI tract, not intracellularly unless specially processed (so it’s perfect for binding in the gut).

4. Slippery Elm

• How it works: Mucilaginous herb that coats and soothes the GI lining.

• Uses: Reduces irritation caused by binders, supports gut lining healing, helps transit of waste.

• Traditional Use: Native American medicine for cough, ulcers, and GI inflammation.

5. Psyllium Husk

• How it works: Bulking agent that adds fiber and helps push toxins out of the body. Also slows transit to allow longer binding time.

• Uses: Constipation, bowel regularity, toxin elimination.

• Research & Benefits:

• Improves lipid profile, blood sugar regulation, and satiety.

• Enhances detox by promoting healthy elimination.

Best Practices for Using Binders

1. Timing Is Everything

• Take 2+ hours away from food, medications, or supplements to avoid binding nutrients you want absorbed.

• Ideal times: Early morning or before bed on an empty stomach.

2. Water Is Key

• Binders require lots of water to move through the digestive system and avoid constipation.

• Aim for at least 500 ml of water with your dose, and 2–3 liters total per day during detox.

3. Dosage

• Start with ½ to 1 teaspoon of Detox Dust once daily. You can increase to 2x/day if tolerated well.

• Mix with water (or coconut water, or herbal tea). Let it settle, then drink immediately.

• Optional: Add lemon/lime to enhance the cleansing effect.

4. Pair With Other Detox Tools

• Best used with a comprehensive detox plan (e.g., parasite cleanse, liver support, redox support like redox revive or cellular renew or sauna/sweating).

• Consider adding binders 2 hours after parasite herbs to mop up the released debris.

Miraculous (and Documented) Benefits

• Reduces die-off symptoms (Herxheimer reactions) during pathogen or parasite detox.

• Pulls out mold toxins and heavy metals that are otherwise hard to eliminate.

• Improves mental clarity by reducing neurotoxins in the gut.

• Supports clearer skin, better digestion, and reduced bloating.

• Balances histamine and inflammation by binding inflammatory by-products in the gut.

Cautions & Contraindications

• Avoid close to meals/supplements: They may bind to nutrients and reduce absorption.

• Constipation risk: Especially if water intake is low—always hydrate.

• Medication timing: Keep at least 2-3 hours away from any prescription meds.

• Pregnancy & breastfeeding: Use only under professional guidance.

• Long-term use: Fine in short bursts (1–4 weeks). For long-term, rotate or cycle off periodically.
