I was exposed to powdered zeolite through the work of Dr. Gabriel Cousens many years ago. Since then I have done extensive research and experimentation with this product. The impressions and results acquired through such means have required me to share this information with you, as I feel this may be one of the most important health discoveries within the last 100 years.
What is Zeolite?
Powdered zeolite is an all natural mineral supplement made from zeolite, which is a negatively charged mineral formed from the fusion of lava and ocean water (1). These zeolites are micronized into a powder for maximum absorption. They can be easily consumed by mixing with any beverage.
Quality tested zeolite products have proven through numerous scientific studies to be 100% safe (2) and have been granted GRAS (Generally Recognized as Safe) status from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) (3). High quality zeolite products have been put through a purification and activation process to ensure the most clean and powerful product possible. When seeking a out a powdered zeolite product I recommend that you only buy from companies that have done extensive peer reviewed scientific studies.
As a mineral, it is considered a food supplement and because of its enormous health generating properties it is also a health supplement.
What Does it do?
Through their strong negative magnetic charge and honeycomb like structure, zeolites draw in only positively charged toxins, trap them, and then safely remove them from the body (4).
According to the website www.liquidzeolite.org, consuming powdered zeolite can have these important health benefits (5):
1. Extremely safe and non-toxic
2. Removes heavy metals including mercury, cadmium, lead, arsenic, aluminium, and tin. It also removes radioactive metals like cesium and Strontium-90.
3. Removes pesticides, herbicides and dioxins by reducing the toxic load to the liver
4. Reduces viral load
5. Reduces absorption of nitrosamines, which are most commonly found in processed meats, and have been linked to pancreatic, stomach and colon cancer, as well as to Type II diabetes
6. Helps buffer body pH to a healthy alkalinity
7. Helps to buffer blood sugar
8. Helps reduce cancer risk
9. Improves nutrient absorption
10. Acts as a powerful antioxidant
11. Reduces symptoms of allergies
12. Increases immune system function by removing toxins, viruses, yeasts, bacteria and fungi which can depress immune function
13. Helps prevent premature aging
14. Extremely easy and pleasant to take
Research and Applications
In Asia zeolites have been used for more than 800 years as a catalyst for creating overall health and well-being (6).
In the U.S. zeolites have been safely and successfully used in animal feed for 30 years and have also had 13 years of pharmaceutical research with humans (7).
An extensive list of clinical studies with zeolite can be found at www.liquidzeolite.org/research.html
Conclusion: Follow Nature’s Lead!
In the world of allopathic medicine there are many chelators that have the ability to draw out heavy metals and toxins, however, the major side effect that accompanies these methods is that they also draw out beneficial minerals and compounds. They do not have a selective uptake mechanism but rather grab everything in sight.
Powdered zeolite on the other hand is a substance created by nature with the ability to selectively draw out only harmful substances from our bodies. This is truly a magnificent gift from nature.
If you or anyone you know suffers from heavy metal or toxic overload I highly recommend that this product be considered. For those of us that think we are not toxic or do not have heavy metals within us, I am sorry to say that most likely this includes 100% of us. Numerous researchers have concluded that due to the modern circumstance of high pollution levels, it is advisable that everyone take powdered zeolite.
