It is the " Dissociation Constant " of toxin release from receptors. This is not solely a question of toxic dose from exposure to toxins outside the body. Biotoxin illness is mediated by whether sufficient upregulation occurs to disturb the equilibrium of the ion gradient that keeps the ionophore toxins bound to their receptors in the fat cells in a " molecular bear trap " . This is a process that can be visualized by thinking of osmosis, except that instead of water molecules responding to disparity of solute concentrations, dissociation of toxins is based on electrostatic principles of attraction. CSM can soak up enough recirculating toxins to cause " dissociation " si. The sudden release of endogenous toxins causes an inflammatory cascade which increases the level of cytokines so dramatically that the " intensification " reaction can be more damaging than an exposure to a toxic building. If someone with the double dreaded mold gene goes through this " intensificatio " , they have the most extreme form of metabolic inadequacy to clear these recirculating toxins. This really throws people off the track, because they suffer even more intensely just when the " allergy " model of illness says they should be improving. Surviving the " Herx " (It's not really a tradition Herx, but the word works anyway) is absolutely brutal, but Dr. Shoemaker has worked out ways to dampen down the upregulation with Pioglitazone. I haven't tried this myself, but I like the fact that Dr Shoemaker is proposing an incredibly logical explanation for all the sensations I have experienced. And others HAVE benefitted by this protocol. To understand what separates the fundamental mechanism of biotoxin mediated responses that are " upstream " of genetic HLA variables, you must read " Solving the Herxheimer " in Desperation Medicine. - Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
