Natural zeolites form in nature as a result of a chemical reaction between volcanic lava and saline water. Zeolites have large open spaces or cages in their structures that form channels. These channels allow the easy movement of ions and molecules into and out of the structure. This ability puts zeolites in the class of materials known as molecular sieves.
Zeolites are natural minerals that hold a negative which is not common in nature. This enables them to attract and trap ions, atoms, and compounds with the opposite charge and remove them from a system, like a magnet. The heavy metal toxins that are found in our environment and our bodies are positively charged.
Research has shown that zeolites remove lead, arsenic, mercury, cadmium and other heavy metals. Zeolites actually help to balance the pH level in our bodies. Having a balanced pH level stabilizes the immune system.
For over 800 years, zeolites have been used in Asia in it's powdered form traditionally to promote overall health and well being. Most zeolites are natural. They are non toxic and safe for long term use. The US FDA has given zeolites the status of GRAS (generally recognized as safe.
Unfortunately, we are unable to escape from the exposure of heavy metal toxins. They are in the air we breathe, the water we drink and the food we eat. Being in the 21st century, we now like to apply more chemicals to our bodies to make ourselves fit in and smell nice. Be careful choosing your products.
