Two ways to clear circulating toxins: drink enough water and use a binder to trap them in your gut. Constipation defeats both methods because bound toxins get reabsorbed, especially with heat like sauna use. Daily bowel movements matter as much as the binder itself.
The 2 biggest things to help with getting rid of toxins that move around are enough hydration and then some kind of a binder. Now, the 3rd factor, which is hypercritical, is because the binder is going to go through the GI tract, you cannot be constipated if you are detoxifying, doing saunas, et cetera. You also can't be constipated if you're taking a binder. And so the biggest reason binders cause constipation is because there's not enough water going with them. They're not hydrated enough. Well, then imagine you get into the heat, you dehydrate a little bit more. If you get constipated, you'll just recirculate all those toxins back into you. So, you want to be having at least a bowel movement every day. You want to stay very hydrated, and you want to have enough of whatever type of binder you and your healthcare provider decide. That could be at the food level. It could be food plus fiber. It could be food plus fiber plus something like charcoal or some other thing.
