Best Detox Binder for Sauna Sessions Explained

A lot of people try sauna detox but end up feeling worse instead of better. The problem isn’t the sauna—it’s that without the right support, toxins just get stirred up and recirculated. In this video I go over the binders I’ve recommended to hundreds of people, including bentonite clay and Introsgel, and why they make sauna use tolerable for those who otherwise struggle. These mild options support your body’s natural detox process instead of forcing it, and that can make all the difference.

Would help if the camera doesn’t die in the middle of this. Okay, where were we? I think I was talking about the Bentonites. This is my go-to.

Really, really like this product. Super affordable, easy to get. You can find it on Amazon. Links will be below.

Or go to CertifiedSaunas.com and search for sauna detox binders. There’s gonna be a new post for 2020 that documents all this stuff and you can read through it. I go into a little bit more detail and we don’t have issues like the camera dying, so. The other thing, I would say jockeying for position one is Interose Gel.

Interose Gel is a silica-based binder that is extremely mild. So if folks have IBS, any other type of bowel issues and stuff like that, can’t tolerate detox products, have a hard time with doing any type of sauna session, whether it’s five minutes, 10 minutes, 15 minutes, and they seem to get ill, seem to get sick.

Over the last couple of years, this has been the number one thing that helps people. You can get it on Amazon. Usually it’s kind of expensive because they limit it. One tube of this is pretty cheap.

It’s between 15 and $20. Sometimes they make you buy three to five tubes at one time, which jacks up the price. It is Russian. If you do research, it’s going to be in Russian.

I can assure you this stuff is very, very safe. It’s very mild. And if there’s one thing out of all the things that has helped hundreds of people, not me, but myself and all the people that I’ve worked with, it would be this stuff. The reason why is a lot of people get into a sauna and they buy a sauna, they start renting sauna sessions, and they’re doing it because they’ve been sick for a long time and their body is not excreting things the way that it should be, or they have some type of complication, or they have a gene modification, or they have a mutation, whatever people talk about.

I won’t say the long-handed version, but the MTHFR, which I usually call something else, but we’ll try to keep this video clean so that the YouTube algorithm doesn’t penalize it and all that stuff, because a lot of these videos get hidden because of that. As you guys know, I’m a pretty straight shooter when it comes to fouling.

which, and I call it like I see it, so if something sucks, I tell you that in very colorful commentary. But anyway, Enteros Gel is probably the number one thing that I’ve recommended to people that have problems. Why? It’s very, very mild, it’s very, very light, it doesn’t upset your digestion, and it also doesn’t cause complications for people that can’t handle more intense binders.

And so, it has a very high affinity for aluminum, so if you’re one of the folks that’s worried about, certain things that you’re ingesting, or some of the stuff that’s in the atmosphere that’s very high aluminum, stuff that we could be breathing or in our water, this is a great product to try for that.

Now, let me tell you what happens. Usually, when people come to me, or they phone in, or they email in and say, I bought a sauna, or I’ve been renting saunas because I can’t afford to buy one yet, I’ve been really sick, I’ve been out of work, this has been happening, I’ve got brain fog, I’ve got severe chronic fatigue, I’ve got all this stuff that’s happening, and I can’t seem to work through it.

Usually, the folks that have trouble with sauna, even if it’s just a five or 10 minute session, aren’t doing anything to support their excretory pathways. And so, their excretion is subpar. So, the sauna is mobilizing on its own. It’s exchanging lymphatic fluid, it’s promoting things to get moving, you’re sweating out, a lot of people say that you’re sweating out heavy metals, but really, if you look at the science, you’re not sweating out all the heavy metals.

Some heavy metals do not come out through the skin at all, or if they do, it’s a very minute amount. One of the things that comes out through the skin very easily is pesticides and other chemicals. So, if you’re a person that’s worked around a lot of fertilizers, like I was when I was a kid, my family owned a garden center for over 75 years.

If you’ve been a farmer, if you’ve been, I was gonna say welder, but that’s the other thing. Because people expect that all heavy metals are detoxed through the skin, when some of them are not, they have to go through the other pathways.

which is urine and feces, that’s why these things are so important is because stuff gets trapped inside and then it just gets recirculated every time you’re doing something to stir them up. And by doing something to stir them up, it could be something as simple as exercise. It could be something as simple as using a sauna.

It could be something as simple as taking cilantro and not pairing it with some type of binding agent. People get really, really sick like this. And that’s why some people have a bad time. I used to do a lot of juicing.

So fresh, raw fruits and vegetables through a juicer, like a masticating juicer is really, really good for you. However, if you’re adding herbs or if you’re adding spice to that, some of that stuff would be cilantro and other things. People think that they’re going through a detox or they’re doing a juice fast and they feel like crap.

Part of it can be that. It’s because you’re doing all these mobilizing techniques, but you’re not actually supporting the draw out, right? Like you’re not doing anything to support getting rid of the stuff that you’re stirring up. So the body is incredibly intuitive.

It’s smarter than we are. And a lot of people blame toxins and they say that this is a toxic world and all that stuff. And it’s really like a negative frame. But if you think about it, this is a really, really, really cool thing that the body does.

Do you know why niacin detoxes work? Do you know why niacin opens up the cells and particles and releases this stuff? Because the body has stored it there for a reason, right? If you think about how intelligent and incredible this machine is, this, who was it that I heard call it a space suit?

I thought that was really cool. This space, because they’re talking, they’re kind of like on a metaphysical speech, but they’re talking about our soul and we’re all energy and everything else, but this particular space suit. And so I kind of like that acronym, but it’s really incredible. So here’s what would happen.

Because a lot of people have this negative frame around, oh my God, my body is storing toxins. Or I have this gene modification.

or this is wrong with me, or my detox pathways are clogged, or all this stuff, but do you guys realize what would happen if that wasn’t the case? Do you really? Like, do you understand? So, the reason that your body is storing heavy metals and stuff in your fat cells in all kinds of places, and that’s why the heavier you are, the more over, like I’m overweight right now, I probably have more toxins accumulated right now because there’s more places to stick it, right?

But if you think about this negative connotation that’s created by a lot of natural healthcare practitioners that’s not serving you guys, it’s not serving us, it’s not serving people, humanity, anyone that’s sick. Here’s why. If you had an acute exposure to some type of heavy metal, whether it’s mercury, aluminum, cadmium, it doesn’t matter what it is.

If you had an acute exposure to that, and the body didn’t have a mechanism of protection, or it didn’t have a process that it goes through to deal with that, you would be dead. Do you understand that the reason that schools are so paranoid about old mercury thermometers, and why there’s this huge thing around cleanup, yet dentists are still putting mercury amalgam fillings in child’s mouths like I had?

Think about that. And so, what is happening? I wanna go through this before we end this video, because once you get this, once you understand this process that is happening, you might appreciate the space suit a little bit more. And I just love that acronym, the space suit.

It kinda separates us from the physical, and can kinda give you a mental break when you’re thinking about this stuff, because it can be overwhelming, especially if you’re not feeling well. I’ve been there a time or two. So, what would happen? So, if you had an acute exposure to aluminum, mercury, any other metals, high-dose pesticides, any of this stuff, we’ll stick with the metals for this example.

Okay, this is why blood tests to measure heavy metals are useless, because the body can filter out an acute exposure.

from the blood within 24 hours. If you have metals in your blood, that’s indicative of something else going on. That doesn’t mean that you’ve had amalgams for years and that your body is so toxic and all this stuff. You should understand how that should be tested and what it means, because a blood test for heavy metals means nothing.

I mean, it means something, but in this particular example, it’s not accurate at all as to what your current situation is. But let’s just say you had this acute exposure. As this stuff is going through your body, if it were to send these heavy particles or heavy concentration of aluminum or mercury, let’s say you swallowed a thermometer or something like that, how does it normally get processed?

How does the body usually process things that you intake? Where does your food go? It extracts the nutrients, right? And it gets rid of the waste.

So what would it do? It would take this concentration from swallowing a thermometer and it would send it to your organs to be processed. What would happen? You would die.

You’d be dead. Because it’s too much, it’s too strong, it’s too high of a concentration for that type of organ to do that particular method of filtration in that time period. So what does the body do? Do you understand how amazing this is?

The body takes it and splits it up. It sends it, it distributes it throughout the body, throughout your body in different areas, and it makes little deposits in your fat cells. Do you understand how cool this is? I know that it’s what makes a lot of us feel like shit and then we’re taking products and stuff later to try and remove this stuff incrementally, but do you understand the alternative?

You wouldn’t be breathing. You’d be in a box, you’d be underground, right? And so when you understand what’s happening, so what is it doing? It’s so intuitive.

And this is on the unconscious level. The body is taking these particles and putting them in little spots to break it up so that there’s not a heavy concentration that gets sent to the organ.

for processing in a level or at an amount that would cause overload and cause death because they’re that toxic. How, do you understand how cool this is? Once I understood this, and I didn’t get this when I was ill, it wasn’t until later, and it was when I was working with people, and it was the same thing over and over and over.

It was the same set of problems. It was the same set of difficulties, and it was the same problems that I had. But when you understand that if the body didn’t do that, it’s trying to protect you. You should thank it because you wouldn’t have the ability to have life if it didn’t do this.

It’s one of the coolest things on the planet. So it’s segregating this stuff. It’s breaking it up. It’s putting a little bit here and there, a little bit here and there, a little bit here and there in the fat cells, and it’s storing them there in these cells.

And so for later, when the time is appropriate, when you can handle the processing, when you are strong enough to do this, it will then allow small amounts to head to the organs for processing. And so what are we doing when we’re taking binders? What are we doing when we’re doing a sauna?

What are we doing? We are reinstating that process, and we are giving it a nudge. And so what are the binders doing? The binders are insisting, or assisting, not insisting.

The binders are assisting with the drawout, with the excretion, with lining the gut with some type of extra protection so that things don’t continue to get recirculated. So even if you have leaky gut, these still work. You can still sauna. It’s just a method.

It’s a way to aid in doing what the body does naturally and supporting it rather than forcing it. And so that is probably the best way to describe stuff like this. Or I didn’t bring them up here, but I’ve done lots of alpha lipoic acid. There’s all types of chelators like DMPS.

There’s all types of injectables. There’s EDTA. There’s suppository.

There’s so many different things, but what are those? Those are mobilizers. Those are pushing. They’re not supporting and pulling, supporting and pulling.

So what’s a sauna? Supporting and pulling. Stirring up a little bit. What’s a binder?

Supporting and pulling. You usually don’t stir up unless there’s a little bit of a mixture in there, but as long as it’s mild, people don’t end up in bad shape. So I know this video is way too long. This is something I’m really, really passionate about.

I’ve helped a lot of people with this. This tore my life to shreds when I was going through it, and now it’s kind of interesting to see on the other side and frame it in a positive light because I think all of these things are really cool. I think what the body is doing, giving people problems with heavy metals and pesticide poisoning and all this stuff, amalgam fillings, all types of issues, it’s really trying to protect you.

It’s saving your life. And so, I don’t know, just another way to look at it. This video is too long. I’m going to wrap this up.

If you have any questions, let me know. I’ll see you in tomorrow’s video, guys. I hope you’re doing well. I hope this serves you well, and hopefully this positive message reaches you today when you need it.
