Podcast 449: Albedextrin
On today’s episode, one of our favorite researchers Spencer Feldman returns to tell us all about his new product Albedextrin. Cyclodextrins may support the body in dealing with rancid fats, toxic waxes and prions. Primary toxins such as heavy metals and organophosphates create secondary toxins. These secondary toxins accumulate in the body as rancid fat, toxic waxes, and prions. Which in turn may create much of what we consider aging as well as cardiovascular and neurological issues.

MARTIN: Here. Hello everyone. This is Martin Pytela, Life Enthusiast podcast, and with me Spencer Feldman. I must tell you, Spencer is probably the most favorite researcher that I’ve done interviews with, and I thought that we had it all figured out. We talked about toxicity, and we talked about protection from all kinds of infectious things, and I thought we had it all down. And Spencer shows up with secondary toxins, and it’s really important to understand that I have talked for ages about the industrial toxins that come from outside, the heavy metals, the lead, arsenic, the cadmium and mercury and the likes, and they cause horrendous amount of damage. But there is this thing called secondary toxins. And I would like Spencer to jump in and start explaining where this research has led him, And let me tell you, this is a bunch of rabbit holes that we did not know that were there. Spencer.
SPENCER: Hey Martin, nice to see you again. So there’s a whole new world of stuff that we have to learn how to deal with, Okay? Not a big deal. So in previous podcasts, we talked about how if a toxin is water-soluble, it gets urinated out and it’s the fat soluble toxins that cause the real problems. They get into the lipid membranes and the body has a very hard time getting rid of them. So one way to think about detoxification is it’s finding the right kind of soaps, as it were, that can make these fat soluble toxins water-soluble, so you can urinate them out.
MARTIN: Yeah. Binders, emulsifiers, detergent.
SPENCER: Right. So yeah the soaps, the detergents, they make them water-soluble. And then the binders would be something that grabs onto them now that they’ve been mobilized and then helps them go out. Because even a water soluble toxin, like a water soluble mercury is still poisonous. It’s still trouble. So yeah, that’s the whole binder’s angle. We talked about heavy metals and toxic chemicals, and I call these, for lack of a better term, first generation toxins. And in this podcast, I want to talk about another class of toxins that are called second generation or secondary, or second generation toxins. And these are toxins that are created inside the body as a result of the first generation toxins. I want to talk about what they are and what problems they cause and how we can get rid of them.
SPENCER: And if you want an analogy, first generation toxins would be like a hole in the ship. And the second generation of toxins would be the three feet of water at the bottom of the boat. Now, of course, you have to fix the hole in the ship because until you fix the hole, it’s going to keep leaking water. But even if you get rid of the hole or are able to patch it up to a degree, it’s not enough.
