Toxguard Heavy Metal Detox contains PectaSol Chelation Complex, a complex of modified polyuronide dietary fibers (citrus pectin and alginate) that have been specifically designed to tightly bind heavy metals and increase their clearance from the body while having a reduced affinity for most nutritionally essential elements. PectaSol’s modified citrus pectin (MCP) has a unique chemical structure and optimized molecular weight that allows for maximized absorption, systemic chelation of toxic metals, and facilitation of their removal. PectaSol’s modified alginate complements MCP by chelating toxic metals within the digestive tract and Beneficial Effectsing their reabsorption.
