 Introduction

H
ow optimal our health is, directly stems from the relationship
we have with our surrounding environment. This includes the
food we eat, the beverages we drink, the products we absorb, the air
we breathe, and how the nature of the lifestyle we lead.

I learned this the hard way, as I was poisoned by lead paint as a

child, and when I was older, mercury, from a medication I was given
by my father, who was a doctor, at age 25. I quickly became
extremely ill, so much so that I thought I was losing my sanity, and
my physical health was the worst it had ever been. At age 26, I felt
like I was 80. I was living a life that I knew was not normal for
someone so young. It took me a while to connect the dots, that I had
high toxic levels and even longer for me to find a safe scientifically
proven solution to reduce my toxic overload.

I am so excited to share with you something that truly is

miraculous for helping keep toxins at bay, and for removing those
that are already causing havoc inside our bodies. If you want to be
truly healthy, you must know what to do. The first step to healing
ANY disease, is, to detox.

1
 Zeolite: The Miracle Detoxing Mineral

Unfortunately, our environment has become riddled with toxins

and harmful compounds that make their way into our systems. Our
blood, urine, tissue, and even breast milk contain a plethora of
industrial chemicals, except only a fraction of these compounds, has
been tested for safety.

The average American adult harbors over 400 toxic chemicals

in their body. Yet this still is a very low estimate considering how
only a few hundred chemicals have been tested, out of more than
140,000 that are present in the products advertised to us.

Even babies born in this day and age are introduced to the world
with up to 300 different chemicals in their umbilical cords. Although
bodies are designed for self-detoxification, the present-day toxic
load is far more burdensome than what our systems can handle. The
snowballing effect of toxins causes a host of health problems
including leaky gut, DNA damage, inflammation, and autoimmune
diseases.

The following list is but a negligible representation of some of

the most commonly used toxins that are linked to all types of health
issues and complications.

Bisphenol A (BPA)

Bisphenol A (BPA) is a common substance used in plastics and

resins, namely in water bottles, utensils, food containers, as well as

2
 Anna Victoria Rodgers

toys. BPA can leach seep into the contents of the containers (food
and water) especially when these are subjected to heating. BPA
seems to be the cause of a number of immune reactions involved in
the development of full-blown autoimmune disease.

Excitotoxins

Excitotoxins are food additives that, when present in excess, can

overstimulate neurotransmitters and neuron receptors. Commonly
used excitotoxins such as monosodium glutamate (MSG), soybean
extract, and aspartame are found in diet sodas, sugar-free chewing
gum, and countless other products, and can trigger metabolic
disorders as well as autoimmune disease.

Heavy metals

They are so pervasive in our environment that heavy metal

toxicity is no longer a topic of debate. Heavy metals can contaminate
and corrupt enzyme systems, stimulate free radical production, and
inhibit the function of metalo-enzyme complexes, which interferes
with the absorption of essential nutrients and minerals. As a result,
the body is more susceptible to develop degenerative diseases
leading to chronic pain and inflammation. These will further boost
free radical production and, in turn, cause even more oxidation, a
chain reaction that is bound to loop into itself.

Personal Care Products

Women will use 12 different personal care products on an

average day. These products contain at least 150 different
ingredients in total, some of which could potentially be one of the
many carcinogens common to beauty, personal care, and hygiene
products.

Pesticides

Pesticides are used to eliminate agricultural pests that

contaminate crops and livestock. The most ones are insecticides used
to kill insects, herbicides used to get rid of weeds, rodenticides to
eradicate rodents, and fungicides to abate fungi, mold, and mildew.
Frequent exposure to pesticides has been linked to lymphoma and
cancers of the breasts, prostate, brain, testis, and ovaries. Pesticides
can also cause birth defects, premature labor, and even infertility.

Why Detoxing is Absolutely Essential

Even low exposure to toxins can lead to significant disruption

in the brain and bodily functions. Reducing exposure combined with
cleansing the body of these harmful compounds has shown to
improve memory, mood, cognitive acuity, heart diseases, diabetes,
and a number of conditions. An excessive amount of heavy metals
can contribute to:

4
 Anna Victoria Rodgers

 Allergies
 Alzheimer’s
 Anger and irritability
 Arthritis
 Asthma
 Autism
 Brain fog
 Cold or numb hands and feet
 Constipation
 Crohn’s Disease
 Fatigue
 Fibromyalgia
 Gas and bloating
 Headaches
 Hypoglycemia
 Kidney disease
 Light sensitivity
 Liver disorder
 Loss of smell and taste
 Low libido and impotence
 Lupus
 Mood swings
 Multiple Sclerosis
 Muscle twitches or tremors
 Overburdened immune system
 Parkinson’s

5
 Zeolite: The Miracle Detoxing Mineral

 Poor lower body circulation

 Skin problems
 Thyroid issues
 Type 2 Diabetes
 Ulcers
 Yeast infections

Heavy metals are even more detrimental during pregnancy.

Prenatal exposure to lead, mercury and cadmium can increase the
risk of developing ADHD and autism, These two conditions are a
direct result of mercury and aluminum settling in the brain’s midline
cerebral canal, creating a divide between the left cerebral hemisphere
and the right. High levels of mercury in the system can also induce
seizure disorders, affecting millions of kids each year.

Toxic heavy metals implicated in ADHD and autism are present

in most soda cans, aluminum foil, and numerous other household
items, in addition to pesticides, fungicides, and herbicides, too.
Fluoride is another nasty poison that can take a toll on your health
and well-being. Many studies have found fluoride to be linked with
lower IQ, bone cancer, immune system disorders, chronic fatigue,
thyroid disease, and even low fertility. Yet popular opinion still
promotes fluoride as an essential agent in the prevention of cavities,
so it continues to be incorporated into the water we drink, the
toothpaste and mouthwash we use, as well as certain prescription
drugs. Fluoride is also present in non-stick Teflon pots and pans,

6
 Anna Victoria Rodgers

which are known to increase the fluoride contents in your food by

300%, as well as non-organic produce and wine but especially tap
water.

This is why implementing a thorough detoxification regimen is

essential because no matter how many times you work on
eliminating a toxin from your system, another one seems to pop up
and replace it. Toxins are everywhere and because of how varied our
exposure is, they tend to build up in our bodies over time. Even low
exposure to these toxins can significantly impair memory, disrupt
gut health, tank your energy levels, and inhibit weight loss.

While avoiding toxins as best as you can is a good strategy, it’s

not sufficient on its own. Detoxification is crucial and this is where
zeolite comes in. Zeolite is a safe and highly effective natural
mineral that can rid your body of all harmful compounds. Along with
its ability to eliminate toxins, it can balance your body’s pH levels,
improve your mood, strengthen your immune system, and even
protect you from pathogens and radioactive materials.

In the following chapters, we will explore the history of zeolite,

its structure, uses, and properties, in addition to its health benefits.
You will also learn how to choose a good zeolite supplement and
what to look for when considering different brands and options.

 Chapter One
The History of
Zeolite

Z eolite is one of the most powerful minerals on the market today.

The healing potential this fascinating substance has is truly
wonderful. With that said, there is a ton of misinformation associated
with this crystal, not to mention the dizzying abundance of low-
quality supplements that are saturating the market and giving zeolite
a bad name. I designed this user-friendly guide to empower you with
knowledge on how to effectively reap the benefits of zeolite and
kickstart your healing journey. In this chapter, we delve into the
history behind zeolite, some of the earliest records of zeolite usage,

8
 Anna Victoria Rodgers

as well as how it rose to prominence as the standard detoxifying tool

in our modern world.

What is Zeolite?

Natural zeolite is a mineral rock that forms as a result of

volcanic activities generated from the interaction of hot volcanic ash
and lava with mineral-rich marine water. In this regard, zeolite is a
silica-based sand-like mineral with a very robust structure carrying
a negative charge. This is a complex mineral; it is created through a
lengthy process that often takes thousands, if not millions of years.
Because of this, scientists estimate that the first zeolite minerals were
produced when volcanic lava comes into contact with water over 300
million years ago.

Zeolite’s history

The first record of zeolite in history dates back to the ancient

Mayans who used it in their aqueducts as a water filtration system.
There is evidence that shows the ancient Romans also used zeolite
for similar purposes but also for building bridges. Zeolite has been
used in a variety of formulations in traditional Chinese medicine,
Russian medicine, and Ayurveda, which is practiced by Indians from
the time of ancient Vedic culture.

Then it fell into oblivion for a few centuries until it found its
way back in 1756 when Swedish chemist and founder of modern

9
 Zeolite: The Miracle Detoxing Mineral

mineralogy, Axel Cronstedt, first recognized it as a new class of

minerals. He coined the name zeolite from two Greek words: zéō,
meaning “to boil” and líthos, meaning “stone.” The appellation is
due to the release of steam when this mineral is heated. Cronstedt
felt that the imagery was very reminiscent of a “boiling stone”.

This incredible discovery marked the beginning of the research

into the chemical, physical, and mineralogical characteristics of
zeolites. Although the scope of structural research involving zeolite
was very limited at the time of its discovery, researchers managed to
set a strong foundation for today’s applications of both natural and
synthetic forms of this mineral. The first synthetic zeolite-levinite
was synthesized in the middle of the nineteenth century, based on

Cronstedt’s research and analysis. Zeolite’s commercialization

in the USA began in the second half of the twentieth century.
Following some intensive research on the physical and chemical
properties of zeolite, in addition to its synthesis, the industrial
applications of zeolite rose in popularity.

In the 1970s, zeolite became a common mineral used in the

treatment of wastewater and radioactive regions and materials. As
the mineral’s astonishing filtration and absorption capabilities
became more known, zeolite’s applications began to expand across
numerous industries. Since the 1980s, research has shown just how
versatile this mineral is, which, in turn, helped it become a
tremendously valuable commodity.

Zeolite Production

Since its rediscovery in the 18th century, miners are now

producing approximately 3 million tons of zeolite annually. China is
in a position of leadership, closely followed by South Korea, Japan,
and Jordan. While there is an abundance of naturally occurring

11
 Zeolite: The Miracle Detoxing Mineral

zeolites, finding the mineral in its pure form can be challenging. This
is often due to contamination with other minerals, namely quartz, but
other metals as well. As a result, the industry mostly relies on the
production of synthetic zeolites, which guarantees their purity and
the uniformity of their structures.

When it comes to the practical applications of zeolites, the

possibilities are truly endless. With that said, there are a number of
proponents that this mineral is highly renowned for, particularly:

 Antioxidant activity
 Blood lipids regulation
 Cleansing and protecting the skin
 Detoxification
 Gut health support
 Preserving optimal brain and liver function
 Stopping uncontrolled bleeding

In this chapter, we discussed the historical background of

zeolite, from its discovery and use in ancient times to its rediscovery
in the 18th century and popularization in modern day society. In the
next chapter, we take a closer look into the structure of zeolite and
how it enables its detoxifying properties. We also examine some of
its defining characteristics as well as its multiple uses across
different industries.

12
 Chapter Two
The Structure, Uses,
and Properties of
Zeolite

Z eolite refers to a group of over 240 unique structures of

crystalline hydrated alkali-aluminum silicates. More than 40
of these frameworks occur in nature. Dorland’s 30th Edition Medical
Dictionary defines zeolites as “any group of hydrated aluminum
silicate minerals; some are used as absorbents or filters.’ The most
common types of zeolite include:

 Clinoptilolite
 Mordenite
 Analcime
 Chabazite

13
 Zeolite: The Miracle Detoxing Mineral

 Natrolite
 Stilbite

Out of all these types, clinoptilolite is the most popular in

detoxification protocols and the most suitable for commercial and
industrial applications. Clinoptilolite accounts for 90% of the world's
entire production of zeolite. While the majority of natural zeolite
products available in the market are clinoptilolite, not every zeolite
product has a high concentration of clinoptilolite.

So the clinoptilolite content of zeolite in a given product is what

determines its quality. This is namely because the active agent in the
mineral is the clinoptilolite. Unfortunately, with the rising demand
and popularity of this product, many companies sacrifice tend to
sacrifice quality with some products consisting of clinoptilolite
content that’s as low as 50 or even 40 percent, while the rest is stone
or clay.

In this chapter, we delve into the structure and components of

zeolite, its industrial uses, traditional and medical uses, as well a
brief account of some of this miracle mineral’s detoxifying
properties (more on that in the fourth chapter).

The Structure and Components of Zeolite

In a clash of boiling lava, volcanic ash, and cold marine water,

zeolite forms a singular cage-like structure and a negative charge.

14
 Anna Victoria Rodgers

The basis of this structure consists of aluminum and silicon, but it

usually also includes other elements like oxygen, zinc, and titanium.
These small and compact cages allow zeolite to act almost like a
molecular sieve that filters molecules based on the size of their
particles. The negative surface charge is what binds minerals such as
sodium, potassium, and calcium. It then puts in place large ions and
heavy metals. To put it more simply, zeolite has the ability to pick
up harmful compounds and replace them with good ones.

How Does Zeolite Work?

Zeolite is an alkaline mineral that is characterized by its porous

nature. It also happens to be one of the very few minerals that have
a natural negative charged. Because the majority of toxins, like
heavy metals, radiation, and pesticides have a positive charge,
zeolite is drawn to these toxins like a magnet, which is what allows
this mineral to suck them up into its structure. These harmful
compounds are then trapped in zeolite’s cage-like framework and are
then safely discharged out of the body.

When ingested in liquid form, clinoptilolite detoxifies thanks to

its honeycomb-shaped structure and strong negative charge that
allow it to attract positively charged toxins and escort them out of
the body. Clinoptilolite zeolite has a potent affinity for drawing
toxins and trapping them into the cage-like framework before
eliminating them.

15
 Zeolite: The Miracle Detoxing Mineral

This miraculous detox compound acts as a toxin magnet and

travels through the body encapsulated in water molecule clusters.
These magnets pull heavy metals, pesticides, and other positively
charged toxins towards them. Their small and compact size means
allows them fluid movement wherever water is transported, which
enables them to go across the blood-brain barrier and detox the body
on a cellular level quite easily.

Once the toxins are stuck onto these magnets, they are taken
captive inside the cage-like structure which renders them inert and
powerless. And so they’re captured and unable to break loose. This
feature is why liquid clinoptilolite does not damage the body by
redistributing the toxins since they’re flushed out through urine and
other elimination pathways. Since micronized clinoptilolites are so
tiny, the detoxification is so delicate and subtle that the kidneys don’t
have to filter them at all.

Industrial Uses

Thanks to its unexampled physical properties, zeolite has gained

massive popularity in several industries and fields. To list but a few:

 Agriculture: regulating moisture and providing a rich supply

of minerals.
 Chemistry: accelerating chemical reactions.
 Farming: reducing bad or pungent odors and assisting in the
treatment of wastewater.

16
 Anna Victoria Rodgers

 Household: cleaning agents, deodorizing products, and

personal care and hygiene.
 Public health and ecology: filtering water and removing
nuclear waste.

Traditional & Medical Uses

In modern medicine, scientists, doctors, and researchers use

zeolites for:

 Bleeding control.
 Controlling drug delivery.
 Engineering of skin and bone tissue.
 Identifying and separating biomarkers.
 Imaging methods like nuclear magnetic resonance.
 Wound treatment.

Detox Properties

Zeolite has the unique ability to bind and eliminate a large range
of toxins from the body, but also from water, and waste materials.
The tiny cages and negative surface charges trap heavy metals,
radioactive elements, metabolic products, natural and chemical
poisons, microbes, and more. Zeolite acquired its reputation as a
detox aide due to its one-of-a-kind surface structure that binds to a
multitude of potentially dangerous toxins. Due to these powerful
detox properties, zeolite can:

 Heal skin lesions and stop bleeding.

17
 Zeolite: The Miracle Detoxing Mineral

 Increase mineral and trace element levels.

 Kill bacteria and viruses.
 Overturn oxidative damage.
 Sustain a healthy microbiome.

Thanks to these fascinating properties, zeolite is the standard for

detoxifying the body from heavy metals and other toxins. This
mineral works its magic in the gut without ever being absorbed,
which makes it completely safe for human use.

In the next chapter, we will explore one of the main properties

of zeolite as a binding agent, namely how it is able to absorb and
eliminate toxins from the body, from heavy metals and mold to
radioactive materials and microbial pathogens. We will compare
zeolite with other known detoxifiers, namely activated charcoal and
bentonite clay.

18
 Chapter Three
Zeolite vs. Toxins

Z eolite has a negative charge which makes it attract positively

charged molecules. As it happens, most of the harmful and
detrimental things that shouldn’t find their way into our bodies are
positively charged. This is why zeolite can be a highly efficient
detoxification method to eliminate the toxic substances that are
draining our health. In this chapter, we will examine all the different
toxins and harmful substances that zeolite can bind to, trap, and then
escort out of the body.

Heavy Metals

The World Health Organization suggests that at least 80% of all

chronic disease conditions can be attributed to environmental

19
 Zeolite: The Miracle Detoxing Mineral

pollution in one way or another. Amongst these pollutants, heavy

metals are the most harmful and threatening. Their nefarious
influence on our health can lead to serious degenerative diseases due
to the overproduction of free radicals.

Toxins and pollutants cause a drastic spike in the production of

free radicals. As a result, oxidation sets the stage for an infestation
of bacteria, viruses, and other devastating microorganisms. Heavy
metals are one of the most dangerous pollutants that produce
oxidation, namely because they linger in tissues and organs since the
body is unable to metabolize them.

Avoiding heavy metals is almost impossible due to how

ubiquitous of a presence they have, from the air we breathe and the
water we drink to the food we eat, the medical drugs we ingest, and
the products we put on our skin. They’re even in the silver-mercury
fillings we put in our mouths and the shots we inject in our bodies.

Heavy metals are toxic metals like lead, mercury, arsenic, and
cadmium, that accumulate in our bodies over time. These elements
can put an enormous strain on our immune and nervous systems. As
a result, this makes our bodies work a lot harder to maintain a healthy
state of being.

With that said, overexposure to heavy metals can cause our

well-being to deteriorate because our bodies have to fight vigorously
to remedy symptoms like chronic fatigue, irritability, brain fog, and

20
 Anna Victoria Rodgers

a host of other conditions that can arise because of heavy metals.

Zeolite targets those hidden metals and traps them in its cage-like
structure for safe unloading. Once these elements are lifted, our
bodies can finally start to function at their peak potential once again.

Environmental Toxins

Now more than ever, we are confronted with an unprecedented

amount of environmental toxins in our daily lives. These toxic
stressors are everywhere, from the air we breathe to the food we eat
- toxins are omnipresent. Over time, these toxins tend to accumulate
in our bodies and take a toll on our health. Fatigue, brain fog,
weakened immune system, and innumerable health issues and
conditions are common side effects of environmental toxins build-
up. But because these toxins carry a positive charge, they’re are
rendered powerless when faced with the strong binding ability of
zeolite, which guarantees their safe removal from the body.

Mold

Parasites can cause mycotoxins, which are secondary

metabolites of fungus. These parasites can also prevent our bodies
from properly absorbing nutrients. Moreover, mycotoxins are
poisonous to the body’s cells because they have the potential to
induce acute and chronic health issues upon entering the bloodstream
and lymphatic system via inhalation, ingestion, or skin contact. They

21
 Zeolite: The Miracle Detoxing Mineral

prevent protein from synthesizing, stifle the proper function of

macrophage systems (responsible for detecting and destroying
bacteria and other harmful organisms), obstruct the clearance of
inhaled particles from the lungs, and increase sensitivity to harmful
endotoxins shed by bacteria upon cell death. Since zeolite crystals
trap heavy metals and eliminate them from your body, depleting your
body of heavy metals will starve those parasites, and in turn, prevent
the accumulation of mycotoxins. People are gradually becoming to
acknowledge mold toxicity as a serious issue and recognize it as a
major agent in a number of health conditions. For instance, mold is
known to cause asthma, but it can also lead to life-threatening
infections, particularly in immunocompromised patients. Moreover,
research has also linked toxic mold exposure to serious long-term
conditions and symptoms such as memory loss, insomnia, anxiety,
depression, confusion, and trouble concentrating. Even if you’re not
necessarily exposed to mold in your living space or at work, there is
still the possibility that past exposure had led to mold spores
multiplying in your body. In fact, mold spores can stay in your body
for years, they can keep replicating even if there is no external mold
exposure anymore. Since zeolite acts as a molecular sieve, it can
prevent and eliminate mold by absorbing moisture and sucking
odors. Thanks to the porous nature of the mineral, these are trapped
inside the crystalline structure of the zeolite, then removed from the
surrounding environment. This is why zeolite is an incredible and

22
 Anna Victoria Rodgers

powerful detoxifier of mold and is, therefore, a must-have in any

process of mold detoxification.

Radioactive Materials

Exposure to ionizing radiation causes radioactive materials to

linger in your body. Radiation can stick around for years, especially
if you don't take any measures to remove it. Every one of us has at
least a small amount of radioactive materials in our bodies. Most of
these materials, we have incrementally accumulated over the years
from scans, mammograms, X-Rays, medical radiation procedures, as
well as naturally occurring radiation and nuclear fallout. Zeolite is a
fantastic mineral for removing radiation waste from your body. It
can remove radioactive isotopes that include Barium, Uranium,
Strontium-90, Iodine-131, Caesium-137, and Thorium.

Microbial Pathogens

Natural zeolite has the power to effectively bind to many

pathogenic microbes including Candida and a number of viruses. Its
potent ability to absorb these compounds gives zeolite its remarkable
antiviral properties. Research analysis examining the antiviral
properties of micronized clinoptilolite zeolite confirms the
promising potential of zeolite as an inhibiting agent in viral
replication. Scientists explain that the antiviral properties appear to
be non-specific, so zeolite may very well be just as efficient in

23
 Zeolite: The Miracle Detoxing Mineral

combating a large range of viruses, not just the ones studies focused
on. It is also worth noting how essential accurate dosage. Based on
the findings, a low dose of zeolite had a negligible antiviral effect,
while a higher dose proved to be a significant inhibitive agent to viral
activity.

Zeolite vs Activated Charcoal and Bentonite Clay

Activated charcoal and bentonite clay are great natural binders.

These are amazing substances that can be very helpful in
detoxification processes. With that said, these binders are not as
potent as zeolite, and so they don’t have the same capabilities and
potential. Charcoal and bentonite flush out toxins present in the gut
or the bloodstream, but their binding ability is not as powerful as
zeolite. Pure zeolite products have a strong negative charge that
allows them to attract toxins through the cell membrane and trap
them into the cage-like structure. This detoxification protocol is
much more effective than that of bentonite or charcoal. With that
said, you can still use activated charcoal and bentonite clay in
conjunction with zeolite as long as zeolite is the primary agent for
your systemic detox. Though keep in mind that bentonite clay isn't
as selective since it tends to bind to any compound with a positive
charge including minerals. Zeolite, on the other hand, attaches to
molecules based on their atomic weight, which means you don't have
to worry about it exhausting your body’s supply of essential
minerals.

In this chapter, we delved into zeolite’s ability to bind to a wide

array of harmful substances, namely environmental toxins, heavy
metals, mold, radioactive materials, and microbial pathogens. We
also examined the difference between zeolite and other detox tools
such as bentonite clay and activated charcoal. In the next chapter, we
will explore the top 10 health benefits of zeolite in more detail.

25
 Chapter Four
Top 10 Health
Benefits of Zeolite

I n the previous chapter, we examined how zeolite binds toxins,

waste products, and other harmful elements like heavy metals,
mold, and microbial pathogens. This allows for easier elimination of
damaging substances that we are constantly exposed to. In this
chapter, we explore some of the top health benefits of zeolite that are
all backed by science just to give you an insight into how powerful
this supplement truly is.

1. It eliminates toxins and heavy metals

Zeolite fosters a negative charge that allows it to attract and

capture toxins and other harmful substances. Following this process,

26
 Anna Victoria Rodgers

the body will then excrete zeolites, and with them, all the toxins and
heavy metals.

Detoxifying is vital nowadays especially due to how ubiquitous

toxins are in our day-to-day lives. You can find them in the
household items you use to clean, in the products you put on your
skin, in the food you eat, in the water you drink, and even in the air
you breathe. They take a toll not only on your immune system but
other essential functions too.

The elimination of these toxins is absolutely necessary because,

without them, the body’s cells won’t be able to maintain their
functionality, nor repair themselves when damaged. The issue with
heavy metals finding their way into your body, whether they’re from
environmental pollutants or some other source is that they tend to
accumulate in your organs and tissue.

They put tremendous strain on the liver’s ability to metabolize

and eliminate toxic compounds. Zeolites can help thanks to their
high affinity for capturing these heavy dangerous metals and
preventing them from causing any damage.

2. It fights carcinogens off

Heavy metals are partly responsible for the presence of acidified

tissue which provides cancerous cells with a base in which they can
grow and thrive. These heavy metals drain the immune system due

27
 Zeolite: The Miracle Detoxing Mineral

to endless inflammatory responses. They also attach themselves to

the oxygen in the bloodstream, leading to exhaustion and fatigue, not
to mention how the low oxygen levels set a favorable environment
for cancer cells to multiply.

Not to mention the detrimental tissue damage that cellular

attacks perpetrated by free radicals and other toxins can cause. At
high concentrations, these mutated cells can be hazardous to the
body, they can even get to the DNA leading to the development of
cancer and many other serious conditions. This is why it’s essential
for us to fight them off before they’re able to infiltrate the nucleic
DNA. Zeolites can be of tremendous help in this fight. They can bind
to carcinogens as well as cancerous cells to ensure their elimination.

3. It boosts digestion

Since zeolites bind to heavy metals and toxins in the digestive

system and eliminate them, this helps them prevent the absorption of
these harmful compounds through the intestinal wall. With that said,
zeolites do not bind to essential nutrients and vitamins that your body
needs to ensure functionality. They merely help reduce the side
effects of the toxic breakdown of the things you consume that make
it to your stomach and intestines.

Optimizing your health cannot happen without some level of

cleansing, especially the digestive system of the body. Zeolites can
assist with this cleansing process in a safe and effective manner. This

supplement can restore your digestive system to good health so your

body would be better equipped to fully utilize the food you ingest.

You will also notice your energy levels to be much higher and
less susceptible to premature depletion. Moreover, the silicate
compounds in zeolites have proven to be very powerful in treating
diarrhea. This is mainly due to the silicate compounds inhibiting
your body from absorbing ammonia through the intestinal walls.

Ammonia is toxic to the cells. In fact, a high level of ammonia

can cause a number of effects including diarrhea, vomiting,
headaches, trouble breathing, and eye pain. Zeolites can greatly
reduce the damage to the intestinal cells which, in turn, provides your
digestive system with a much-needed boost.

4. It alkalizes the body

Another well-known benefit of this supplement is its ability to

balance the body’s pH levels. Zeolite can do this by supplying
alkalizing minerals in addition to boosting kidney function. Most of
the food we eat on a daily basis, namely rice, white bread, and
processed products, are acidic by nature, which throws off the
natural pH balance our bodies are set at.

On the other hand, most green vegetables, provided they are

organic, are alkaline-promoting items, while alcohol, pesticides,

29
 Zeolite: The Miracle Detoxing Mineral

environmental toxins, and pollutants, contribute to the increase of

acidity.

When you have an abundance of acidity in your body, this often

manifests as headaches, mood fluctuations, chronic inflammation,
fatigue, and several other symptoms. Alkalizing minerals can
diminish the effects of high acidity in the body.

When zeolite is properly cleansed, minerals like calcium,

potassium, and magnesium are present inside the cage-like structure.
This allows zeolite to switch the beneficial minerals for the harmful
toxins. But perhaps the most important contribution zeolite makes in
balancing pH levels relates to kidney function.

Your kidneys are responsible for maintaining a healthy pH

balance but because many heavy metals can stifle that function, they
need to be eliminated to ensure peak performance. Zeolite can help
with that since it rids the body of heavy metals, ultimately supporting
optimal kidney health and ensuring a good balance of your body’s
pH.

5. It has strong antioxidant properties

Free radicals are molecules that contain unpaired electrons, so

they attack cell membranes in an attempt to stabilize themselves, and
once inside they can latch onto the DNA. Usually, free radicals are
identified and destroyed by antioxidants.

30
 Anna Victoria Rodgers

With that said, aging can cause an increase in antigens (these are
substances that push your immune system to release antibodies
against them). When that happens, antioxidants are swamped with
the number of factors they have to regulate. This potentially causes
cells to mutate, producing tumors. Zeolites can assist the antioxidant
network and take part in the workload, which, in turn, helps put an
end to the oxidative damage pattern.

6. It strengthens the immune system

The lymphatic fluid is made of white blood cells that attack

bacteria in the blood and fluid from the intestines that comprise a
combination of proteins and fats. Accordingly, these two elements
represent a fundamental part of the immune system’s
communication process, mainly identifying, inhibiting,
encapsulating, and eliminating compounds like pathogens, antigens,
and carcinogens.

Zeolites are also renowned for their antiviral properties. They

contribute in many ways using a wide array of biological
mechanisms. Taking zeolite can help detect and trap pathogens in
the circulatory system in addition to eliminating harmful substances
that can compromise or flood your immune system.

31
 Zeolite: The Miracle Detoxing Mineral

7. It neutralizes free radicals

Oxidative stress can cause fatigue, memory loss, brain fog,

headaches, susceptibility to infections, and even strokes. Free
radicals can release more iron and with this increase, excess iron in
the body causes a variety of adverse effects; heart problems,
diabetes, liver disease, Alzheimer’s disease, dementia, and
Parkinson’s disease.

Zeolite can also act as an antioxidant, albeit a bit differently

from popular vitamins like vitamin A, vitamin C, vitamin E, and
selenium, which represent the pillars of our bodies’ network of
antioxidants. Combined, these antioxidants can neutralize free
radicals and render them harmless to our health.

8. It supports a healthy gut

A leaky gut occurs when the bowel lining in your intestines

becomes irritated and overly porous. This permeability allows
harmful toxins to travel from your intestines right into the
bloodstream. This causes a number of symptoms such as chronic
diarrhea, constipating, or bloating, nutritional deficiencies, a
weakened immune system, excessive fatigue, joint pain, difficulty
concentrating, autoimmune issues, skin problems, depression, and
inflammation.

32
 Anna Victoria Rodgers

The longer you wait before addressing your leaky gut, the worse
it is susceptible to get overtime. Fortunately, taking a zeolite
supplement can alleviate the symptoms of a leaky gut by targeting
the root cause and expanding the integrity of the intestinal wall.

9. It has strong adaptogenic properties

Adaptogenic elements are known to “hack” the body’s natural

stress response. They can react to and interact with the endocrine,
neurological, and immune systems in the body to counter the effects
of any harmful compounds. Not only that, but our metabolic and
digestive processes rely on these bioactive constituents to fulfill the
role of enzymes, catalysts, and active agents. In this regard, zeolite
can be used to further enhance that role and adapt to the body’s
needs.

10. It boosts your mood

When toxins and heavy metals like lead and mercury

accumulate in your system, they can cause a negative impact on your
mood. Research shows that the mercury from amalgam dental
fillings, for instance, can lead to depression, anxiety, and excessive
anger. We are often quick to dismiss these symptoms, thinking
they’re the result of leading a busy or stressful lifestyle. This could
be due to how vague the symptoms of heavy metal accumulation can
be, as we easily mistake them for something else. Zeolite can

33
 Zeolite: The Miracle Detoxing Mineral

eradicate this issue by trapping and escorting heavy metals out of

your body, supporting a positive mood.

The next chapter is dedicated to helping you make an informed

decision before purchasing zeolite. We will discuss the four main
aspects to consider when looking for a zeolite supplement. You will
learn all about how particle size, cleanliness, price, and storage all
play a role in the effectiveness of zeolite.

35
 Chapter Five
How to Choose a
Good Zeolite
Supplement

N
ow that you are aware of the many benefits zeolite offers, you
will want to know which product is best for eliminating all
those harmful toxins from your body. While you might feel inclined
to choose a supplement based on how cost-effective it is, the old
adage “you get what you pay for” rings true in this case. The best
investment you can make will also yield the most optimal results.

Superior quality zeolites have the most promising results with

minimal to virtually no side effects. Although many brands rely on
appealing marketing strategies and enticing tactics to get ahead of

36
 Anna Victoria Rodgers

the competition, when you take a closer look into the product range,
it leaves much to be desired.

Usually, it’s zeolite diluted in a sea of unstable compounds and

encased in luxurious packaging to upsell non-existent benefits.
Unfortunately, the zeolite industry has become littered with false
claims and shady companies led by dishonest people whose only
goal is to generate a profit.

This is why you have to do your own research into the brand
you’re buying zeolite from to gauge their credibility, get to know the
reputation they have in the market and ensure the purity and
cleanliness of the product you’re about to invest in. You will want
them to have third party testing visible on their website, showing you
the results of their product being low in contaminants. There are
only less than a handful of companies who have this proof.

There are two main aspects to take into account when choosing
a zeolite product for detox: quality and quantity. It's vital that you
choose a good quality zeolite product that also comes at the right
dosage.

Consuming a poor-quality zeolite in the wrong amount can

result in negative outcomes. This is mainly because subpar quality
zeolite supplements tend to be contaminated with toxic elements that
stifle the potency of their binding power.

37
 Zeolite: The Miracle Detoxing Mineral

In this chapter, we examine the four main things to look for in a

zeolite product before making your purchase.

Price Point

Back in the early 2000s, when zeolite products were first

surfacing into the market, very few people understood the health
benefits this wonderful mineral provides. Even fewer people knew
the intricacies of zeolite and the process in which it detoxifies the
body. The high negative charge allows it to attract and trap toxins at
the cellular level -provided it is able to reach them. Price can be an
important indicator of the quality of zeolites.

The cheapest liquid zeolite products often contain other

substances, which makes them impure. The absorption capacity of
ground-up powder zeolite is not the best either, with some particle
sizes being as large as 40 microns. This further reduces the
effectiveness of zeolite. In fact, if the particle size is bigger than 5
microns, the detox effect is substantially reduced. While I don’t
entirely recommend basing your purchase solely on price, it’s still a
helpful indicator to consider.

Micronization and Particle Size

When it comes to potency, there are several factors that come

into play; the first one being particle size. When zeolite is
micronized, this further increases the surface area that pulls toxins

38
 Anna Victoria Rodgers

in. This is what makes the difference between liquid zeolite, which
fosters smaller particles, and the powder form of zeolite, which
usually has larger particles.

Although the latter can be effective when traveling through the

gut, it has very limited capability in trapping toxins present in the
bloodstream. The process of micronization is essential because
smaller particles are able to leave the gut, move throughout the body,
and in this circulation, go deeper into organ tissue and between cells
for a meticulous detox.

Liquid zeolite is optimal because it is much more effective at

removing toxins from everywhere in the body due to its ability to
cross the blood-brain barrier. You will find that all zeolite products
cannot be completely homogenized, and so they come in a variety of
particle sizes.

The size determines whether zeolite is able to go through cell

walls to pull toxins from the source and how many of these toxins
can be trapped based on the surface area available. Look for particle
sizes that are less than 5 microns with the majority averaging at 2.5
to 1 micron since these work best.

Scientific research shows that powder form, even when

micronized has a very limited capability to travel from the colon and
into the bloodstream. The only way this can be achieved is by

39
 Zeolite: The Miracle Detoxing Mineral

suspending zeolite in water, provided the consistency is pure zeolite

and water only.

This is one of the many reasons why the technology involved in

making liquid zeolite is so complex and so expensive. Zeolite
micronization is a costly process that very few zeolite-based
companies actually invest in.

A majority of other Zeolite supplement companies rely on

milling to reduce the particle size. Milling, conducted at the mine, is
where the Zeolite is crushed by machines, causing the structure of
the Zeolite to be compromised.

Cleanliness and Purity

The second factor that directly contributes to the effectiveness

of zeolite is how clean it is and where it’s stored. Even the most
pristine zeolite sources are laden with contaminants. Rarely can you
find a natural source of zeolite that does not come with traces of other
compounds like clay, feldspar, and quartz.

While trace minerals may seem like a nice feature or addition to

the product, they make for contaminated zeolite. The crystalline
cavities that foster this mineral are always filled with toxins present
in the surrounding environment. And like a sponge, zeolite absorbs
all of these environmental chemicals and substances.

40
 Anna Victoria Rodgers

Although they’re trapped inside the honeycomb structure of the

zeolite and therefore cannot harm you, they take up the toxin pulling
surface area of zeolite, making it a lot less effective in detoxifying
your body.

Additional minerals contribute no value to zeolite; they only

take up the cleaning surface area your body could otherwise benefit
from as a toxin remover. So when choosing a zeolite brand or
product, as mentioned, previously look for evidence of third-party
testing that shows proof of cleanliness and purity.

I personally love the Pure Body products by Touchstone

Essentials who were the first in the world to create a nano particle
spray with a nano metre size of less than 0.8. These particles are so
small that you cannot see them without an expensive high-tech
microscope.

You can check out Touchstone’s product information and

impressive scientific evidence by going to
organicliving.thegoodinside.com

You might like to read their fascinating white paper here:

Because of my own life changing experience after suffering

from lead and mercury poisoning, I was led, by a friend, to try liquid
zeolite. Two weeks after taking it, my brain fog, heavy leg feeling
and debilitating fatigue, had all gone. It seemed like a miracle and
made me realize that healing from poisoning IS possible.

41
 Zeolite: The Miracle Detoxing Mineral

I have since been incredibly grateful to the company, their CEO

Eddie Stone, who genuinely cares about people getting healthy (his
own mother was harmed by toxic breast implants and this was the
catalyst for Eddie founding Touchstone Essentials as he wanted the
world to know that there is a gentle and effective way to detox) and
I love their ethics, quality and excellent customer service. They also
source their zeolite from the USA. I am not a fan of zeolite that is
minded in China, because it is one of the most toxic countries on
earth.

If you would like to purchase a bottle of their nano spray, Pure

Body Extra Strength for less than the normal full price please go to
www.thegoodinside.com/detoxlifestyle. Your first bottle will be
$13.86 approximately instead of $79.95. They also sell another type
of Pure Body, liquid drops, that is great for detoxing the gut.

Storage

Zeolite must also be stored in glass instead of plastic. Plastic

containers often comprise BPA or bisphenol-A. Research shows that
even low doses of BPA exposure can lead to cardiovascular
problems, including coronary artery heart disease, increased risk of
heart attack, hypertension, and peripheral artery disease. BPA also
disrupts hormones, alters the reproductive system, and affects brain
development, setting the stage for breast and prostate cancer.

42
 Anna Victoria Rodgers

People with higher levels of exposure are also more susceptible

to obesity and diabetes. Storing zeolite in anything other than glass
can saturate the surface area with toxins from the container,
rendering it ineffective when ingested.

Zeolite can be contaminated with a number of toxic elements in

plastic due to its strong binding capabilities. So it is vital that the
zeolite is stocked and sold in a toxin-free material like glass. The
cleaner the zeolite is, the more binding capacity it has, and thus, the
better it will be at detoxifying the body.

Some people will purchase zeolite without taking into account

whether the product is actually meant for human consumption. This
is another important thing to keep in mind when looking for zeolite
supplements. The health and detox benefits of pure micronized
natural zeolite are backed by hundreds of scientific studies, whereas
there is little to no research on the effects of synthetic zeolite on the
human body.

Just because you’re getting a better price does not mean the
product will be processed as effectively or perform a similar
detoxification protocol to natural zeolite. There are several
companies that use synthetic commercial grade zeolite without
specifying it in their product description so make sure you conduct
background research into the supplements you’re buying.

43
 Zeolite: The Miracle Detoxing Mineral

High-quality zeolite is a safe and efficient detox method to rid

the body of a number of toxic elements including mold, heavy
metals, environmental toxins, radioactive materials, and pathogenic
microbes. So it is essential to find a zeolite product of superior
quality to use at the proper dosage for optimal effects.

44
 Zeolite FAQ

Which is better: zeolite powder or liquid zeolite?

Composition, cleanliness, and particle size are three defining

elements of zeolite’s effectiveness against toxins and harmful
substances. The truth is, most powdered zeolites come in larger
particle sizes which renders them ineffective when it comes to
systemic detoxification, not to mention the unpleasant taste. Small
particles that are invisible to the naked eye can also fly off when
moving the powder from the container and into the glass of water.
Zeolite suspended in water is much more effective in that regard.

Why should I avoid zeolite supplements with vitamins and

minerals?

Most synthetic vitamins and minerals have a positive charge.

And because zeolites have an affinity for positively charged
molecules, it can lead to them absorbing those nutrients. Vitamins
and minerals will then be trapped in the zeolite cage-like structure,
which also reduces the surface area that can pull out toxins. So it
makes both zeolite and the supplements you take ineffective.

45
 Zeolite: The Miracle Detoxing Mineral

Is Zeolite Safe?

Pure clinoptilolite zeolite is definitely safe. All high-quality

clinoptilolite undergoes a thorough cleaning process to remove toxic
elements and eliminate contamination and is then nanosized for
human consumption. It is worth mentioning that zeolite comes in
hundreds of forms and variations, but I am only talking about
clinoptilolite, which is the main type used in detox supplements. This
natural mineral consists of a wide array of elements and is
characterized by a unique structure that the body cannot metabolize
or break down. Because of this, the body does not absorb any of the
elements zeolite is made of. This enables it to capture positively
charged toxins as they pass through your bloodstream before being
excreted. So zeolite poisoning or overdosing is really out of the
question as long as the zeolite you ingest is pure and specifically
designed for human consumption.

Are there any side effects of taking Zeolite?

There are no known side effects to zeolite. As for interaction

with other drugs, take the precaution of ingesting zeolites two hours
prior to taking any prescribed medication to ensure their
effectiveness. Because zeolites attract water to assist with the
detoxification process, make sure you drink enough -filtered- water
(8 to 10 glasses a day). If you experience any signs of dehydration,
like headaches or fatigue, increase your water intake.

46
 Anna Victoria Rodgers

Do zeolites remove good minerals in addition to the bad heavy

metals?

No, zeolites only attract heavy metals and toxins. While they do
interact with synthetic vitamins and minerals, they are not drawn to
those that occur naturally. Clinoptilolite is negatively charged while
the majority of toxins and heavy metals are positively charged. So it
acts as a magnet that attracts and then traps those toxins before
eliminating them from your body.

How long does it stay in the body for?

Because zeolite is not stored in the body, nor is it metabolized,

it passes through the excretory system within 4 to 6 hours. Natural
zeolite is completely safe for long-term, daily use and it has been
granted Generally Recognized As Safe -GRAS status by the FDA.
Since we are continuously exposed to heavy metals and toxins,
regular use is recommended to help buffer toxic exposure.

How Does Zeolite Help My Immune System?

Ensuring optimal immune system health requires the removal of

immune drainers and the incorporation of immune boosters. If you
cannot eliminate all the toxic elements that are compromising your
immune function, then the effects of immune boosters will be very
limited. Heavy metals, environmental toxins, mold, radioactive
materials, and microbial pathogens are but a few in the long list of

47
 Zeolite: The Miracle Detoxing Mineral

the immune-draining compounds that many of us have accumulated

over the years. Zeolite can absorb and remove many of the toxic
elements we are currently harboring in our bodies, allowing our
immune system to redirect its efforts towards more pressing issues.

How Does Zeolite Aid With Mineral Absorption?

Zeolite has the potential to increase mineral levels in your body

by removing metals that are competing with essential minerals for
absorption. So although zeolite doesn't contain any bioavailable
minerals it could work more effectively than mineral supplements to
balance mineral levels in your body...pretty cool! Increased mineral
absorption can lead to a number of positive biological changes but
must be considered when taking certain medications. For example,
zeolite could raise iodine levels by removing metals that are
competing with iodine for absorption. If this happens while you are
on synthetic thyroid hormones it is possible that you may need to
lower the dose of the medication because your thyroid may start
working more efficiently due to the increase in iodine absorption.

Will zeolite remove dental fillings or hip replacements?

 No. The zeolite cages will only capture and trap heavy metals
and toxins that are freely floating in the bloodstream—it
must come in contact with the individual positively-charged
particle.
