Detoxing with Zeolites

By Carrie Spry

Zeolites are formed naturally resulting from a chemical reaction between saline water and volcanic lava. Zeolites are structured like cages which have open spaces and channels. Ions and molecules can move easy into and out of the structure. This class of materials is known as molecular sieves.

Zeolites are one of the few negatively charged minerals found in nature. This negative charge allows them to attract and trap into them positively charged atoms, ions, and compounds and can remove them from a system. Zeolites can trap heavy metal toxins which have a positive charge and expel them from your body.

Zeolites have been shown to remove mercury, lead, cadmium, arsenic and other heavy metals. Research has shown that it actually helps to balance the pH level in our body producing a slightly alkaline system. This in turn stabilizes the immune system.

Zeolites have been used in powdered form for over 800 years throughout Asia as a traditional medicine to promote well being and overall health. Zeolites have been giving a GRAS (generally recongnized as safe) status from the US FDA. The are natural, non toxic and safe for long term use.

Everyday we are exposed to heavy metal toxins through the air we breathe, the water we drink and the food we eat. Also, we like to knowingly apply personal hygiene products that are usually choc full of heavy metal toxins and other chemicals. Ensure that you do research on the product of your choice. You generally get what you pay for.

Zeolites should go in empty and come out full. If the zeolites you are using are not properly activated, they could go in full and come out the same way without actually absorbing anything. There is no danger of absorbing the contents of the zeolites as they are virtually indestructible, however, it wont do you any good.

Here are some guidelines to follow if you choose zeolites in your program. Try and choose a non synthetic naturally occurring product. The product needs to be "activated" or chemically washed to remove the toxins already present. The zeolites should be suspended in water only. You are taking zeolites to detox your body, not add this that and the other. - 17273
