Guest guest Posted January 19, 2008 Report Share Posted January 19, 2008 Yes, this is a good idea. People should still keep their doctor in the loop and get a prescription if possible, but for people without insurance, this is a possible way to save money. People are crazy to suffer in silence. lf a doctor won't prescribe you CSM after you show them everything that is out there, people should get another doctor and write them a letter laying out that that kind of response is causing people who might otherwise be on the road to recovery to get much sicker than they would be otherwise. If an insurance company refuses to pay for CSM, start a formal grievance with the state Dept. of Insurance. Make them put themselves on the record as why.

Guest guest Posted January 20, 2008 Report Share Posted January 20, 2008 I'm new to this group so I really don;t know what CSM refers too. Can anybody give me a short quick explanation? I'm ALWAYS willing to try something new! Thanks, Surella > > > > > > > > > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted January 20, 2008 Report Share Posted January 20, 2008 Hello All, I am still learning about the mold issue as it relates to human exposure and also new to the CSM thread. I have a question though and that I think is important - exactly what kind of mold infections are we talking about that CSM is supposed to treat? I can understand that CSM would treat mold infections in the intestinal tract --but in humans isn't mold infection in the intestinal tract far less common than in the blood or respiratory tract. I am familiar with CSM as it binds agents (such as cholesterol) as it passes through the intestinal tract and helps to reduce inflammation (and diarrhea) because it reduces the ability for the toxins made by bacteria and viruses to be absorbed through the intestinal wall that are in the tract as it passes through. I do not understand how CSM reduces the most common forms of infection from molds because it does not " scrub " for lack of a better word the respiratory or circulatory system. I am not a pharmacist so please correct me if I am incorrect on how CSM is supposed to work on these kinds of mold infections. I am a little confised so please help me understand.

Guest guest Posted January 20, 2008 Report Share Posted January 20, 2008 Kim, As I understand it, CSM binds to the bile salts that are deposited in the intestine and carries them out of the body. The bile contains toxins from throughout the body which are recirculated via the liver and gall bladder. If one does not use CSM, those toxins will be reabsorbed from the digestive tract and " re-enter " the body. So, in reality CSM doesn't treat an " infection " per se, but removes mycotoxins. I trust that if I've got any of this wrong someone will correct me. - > > Hello All, > > I am still learning about the mold issue as it relates to human > exposure and also new to the CSM thread.

I buy my CSM from 1drustore-online.com. It comes from Thailand, usually, but I haven't had any problems, just takes a while to ship!
