Unless you’re new here, I’m guessing you know I’m a huge fan of binders. Whether you’re dealing with mold toxicity, heavy metal detox, candida overgrowth, or Lyme disease, toxin binders are a gamechanger! They can smooth out the bumps on any detox journey.
This is why I decided to create a custom binder formula just for this community: Mi Toxin Binder. While developing the formula, I knew I wanted to include ingredients that bind all mycotoxins. But I also knew it needed to move bile.
Getting your bile moving is SO important. When bile slows down, it can stall your progress and make you feel miserable in the meantime. So let’s explore what bile is, what it does, and how Mi Toxin Binder helps get your bile moving.
So What IS Bile & What Does It Do?
Bile is a yellow-green fluid made by your liver and stored in your gall bladder. It’s where toxins are dumped to be released into the GI system. But bile also helps your small intestine digest fat.
Bile is made up of: (1)
Bile salts
Phospholipids
Cholesterol
Bilirubin
Water
When you eat, your gall bladder releases bile into your stomach to help digest fat. However, bile production can get stalled by:
Lack of bitter foods
Brain inflammation
Blocked bile duct
Gall bladder removal
Not drinking enough water
Poor diet
Bile is kind of a double-edged sword as it also gets recycled. That means toxins can keep recirculating, wreaking havoc in the process. This is how people can stay stuck in a stored toxic state.
Want Better Bile Flow? Try Mi Toxin Binder
Our new formula, Mi Toxin Binder, contains ingredients that both move and sequester bile. Bile sequestrants bind to bile acids and then excrete them via your stool, preventing toxins from recirculating.
Mi Toxin Binder features artichoke extract, which moves bile and protects your liver. (2, 3) Also included is Chinese Rhubarb, which moves bile, supports digestion, and relieves constipation – so you can get those toxins outta ya! (4, 5)
If you’re struggling with symptoms of poor detox like fatigue, brain fog, and headaches, Mi Toxin Binder can offer the whole-body support you need to detoxify your body gently.
Mi Toxin Binder will be available for pre-order in May!

In Chinese medicine, every organ system has a corresponding emotion, and if that emotion is at an extreme, the organ function can be affected. In today’s article, I’m going to use the concept of ‘overthinking damage digestion’ to describe some of the effects of worry and ‘overthinking’ on digestive function.
