Can Zeolite be Harmful?

I've been doing a lot of research on the Zeolite product lately trying to find the truth about it. I found a very disturbing article today at Zeolite Liquid Wholesale site.

The way I understand it is that Zeolites occur in nature and by default they pull in toxins. So when they are found originally they are filled with toxins that they have already picked up. So if you try to consume these zeolites you could seriously harm yourself.

Here are some of the things other companies say about the cleansing process, and the truth behind their claims.

1. "Hydrochloric acid and high heat destroy a zeolite structure (as zeolite was FORMED by heat in the first place when volcanic ash combined with alkaline sea water). Both of these structure-destroying processes are used in making another liquid zeolite (which is much more expensive and multi-level-marketed), in a effort to "clean the cages". When you destroy the structure, you create a pool of elements that originally made up the structure. Even if heavy metals were safe in the cage walls before the process, they are now loose and can be absorbed by the body. WE DO NOT USE HYDROCHLORIC ACID OR HEAT TO MAKE OUR LIQUID ZEOLITE. We use the cleanest, safest zeolite ore, in the first place, and use a natural approach to liquefying the zeolite. No harsh chemical reagents and zeolite-damaging heat-treatment processes are used! By liquefying zeolite with humic/fulvic, these amazing substances also provide numerous benefits on their own By further adding structured water and frequency enhancement, we feel our non Rx detoxifying and re-mineralizing supplement (proudly made in the USA) is an amazing product." (from Liquid Zeolite Company, Inc)

   First a mineral that is formed from volcanic eruptions will not be harmed by a bit of heat. Secondly, the whole idea is to shake loose the toxins and get rid of them. These poor folks just admitted that their product has heavy metals in them that they don’t clean out. Third, there is no such thing as a "cleanest, safest zeolite ore". Zeolite isn’t an ore, and it comes from the ground and is exposed to everything we are (see above). Finally they say they "liquefy zeolite with humic/fulvic acid". Zeolite is a mineral. It can NOT be liquefied. Humic/fulvic acids are ACIDIC fillers that allow them to put less or no zeolite in their bottles. (The good news is if there is MORE filler there will be LESS heavy metals because there is LESS zeolite!! They use bright pink colors (pretty!) and practically shout their desperate plea to a vulnerable audience.( I think when you have to yell in pink you really must be losing customers!) :-)

2. Zeolite Enhanced Now With DHQ- Robert (not a medical professional) Sopias from "11 natural therapies to conquer cancer" (cancer-fighting-strategies.com). Zeolite Enhanced is a frequency enhanced liquid zeolite, that has been, ever since it was developed, the most potent liquid zeolite supplement available. And much better than any powder or capsule. Bar none. Not because it is specially cleaned or activated, as one major brand touts. That cleaning doesn’t help the zeolite get into cancer cells. Not because it has humic or fulvic acid as other brands tout, though it does indeed contain humic acid. Humic acid or fulvic acid both enhance absorption, but don’t help zeolite get into cancerous cells. And getting the zeolite into the cancer cells is what you want. That’s where zeolite needs to get to, to kill the cancer cell. What sets Zeolite Enhanced above all other zeolites, making its most recent version about 400% more effective at dealing with cancer, is that it has been energized or imbued with special vibrational frequencies 8 or 9 different ways that have three anti-cancer activities, all equally important.

   Once again we see that the Zeolite Enhanced- Now With DHQ is not cleaned. This means it is full of heavy metals and toxins. Once again we see that a manufacturer adds fillers to the zeolite. The REASON they need to add things like DHQ to try to make the zeolite product seem more potent is that a full zeolite cage can not do it’s job in your body. Finally, zeolite DOES NOT kill cancer cells!!!! Neither do vibrational frequencies. Fancy marketing talk can send you to your death!

3. The deposit of ZEOLITE we use is from the purest deposits available. Any residual toxins that may have been present in the Zeolite are removed by our Proprietary Glacial water process, which is highly effective and does not use a heat treatment or acid process. This produces the best quality ORME ZEOLITE liquid available. (from Ambaya Gold)

   Glacial Water Process- that’s a fancy way of saying they haven’t figured out how to break the very strong bond between zeolite and toxin, and clean the cages.
   

SO...... How do you know if you have the right stuff....

If the label doesn't look like this one, then you have been a victim of a scam;



I hope this helps. For a ton more information, there's a free ebook written by Shelley Penney called the Liquid Zeolite Ebook.
