superJ50,
You mentioned you are using charcoal and taking abx. Traveler please correct me if I'm wrong but I've always understood that charcoal was a big NO if you are on abx.
Binders are a very effective way of reducing toxins in the blood stream, although they do bind to everything! So the person must be very careful to keep them at least 2 hours away from everything other than water - food, medicines, herbs, supplements - any thing that we want the body to absorb.
I usually think of it as needing a 4 hour time block where I'm not eating, drinking or taking meds, then I take the binder in the middle of that time block so that I have 2 hours on either side. Then I learned to take it in the middle of the night during my nightly bathroom run.
