i read in "Herbs for Health" magazine that pectin is a good supplement to use when doing a cleansing diet, because it

"...is especially helpful in removing environmental toxins and radioactive substances from the body.... Pectin can also be purchased as a powder, which is then mixed as a tablespoon dose in water. The powder will gel up in the body, drawing to it toxic chemicals because of its strong ionic (electrically charged) nature..." [Herbs for Health, March/April 2003, "Fasting: A Time-Honored Approach to Health", p. 35. website: www.discoverherbs.com]

has anyone else heard this about pectin? is this true of other soluable fiber supplements as well, or just pectin?

So, apparently it is sold SOMEWHERE as a powder to mix with water... no brands were mentioned in the article, however.
