Thank you Andy for the good wishes and the same back to you. Thank you for always keeping in touch with me when I was not well enough to post too much on the main board here.

@Forebearance this is an old thread and I know we spoke a lot about mold binders back in June & July. The apt I mentioned in this thread did not work out but we are in a new mold free apt as of Sept & Oct that has worked out well.
I was wondering if you could remind me if you tried apple pectin as a binder or only citrus pectin? I cannot eat citrus but can eat apple. If so, do you have a brand or dose that works for you? I think this is the only one benign enough for me to tolerate right now.
Thanks in advance to Fore or anyone who has info on this.

Hi @Gingergrrl !
I am so happy to hear about your new apartment!
Apple pectin sounds like a great idea to me. I haven't tried it myself, but I have eaten apples for the fiber.
I guess like anything else, start out with a small amount and see how it goes and if you can increase it.
I forget if we said this in this thread, but I hope you know that to bind toxins it's best to take your binders on an empty stomach. Or with a small amount of fat to stimulate the gall bladder. If you take them with supplements, they will suck up some of the nutrients in the supplements.
I hope it works well for you!
Love, Fore
