How do I use the Zeolite Detox Pack?
Pure Body and Pure Body Extra were developed to work together for a whole-body detox. For Pure Body, take 4 drops, 3 times a day. For Pure Body Extra, take 4 sprays, 3 times a day. This ensures a continuous detox effect. When detoxing, it’s recommended to increase your water intake. When not in use, you can store the products in a cool, dry place. No refrigeration is necessary.
Can children take the Zeolite Detox Pack?
Yes. The zeolite Clinoptilolite has been granted GRAS (Generally Recognized As Safe) status by the FDA. Serving sizes are based on an adult’s size, so reduce the serving according to your child’s size. For younger children, a good place to start is one fourth of the adult serving size (1 spray and 1 drop, 3 times a day). For school age children consider half the adult serving size (2 sprays and 2 drops, 3 times a day). Increasing water intake supports the natural detoxification process.
How long can I take the Zeolite Detox Pack?
Zeolite is not stored in the body, passing through the excretory system (via urine) within 4 to 6 hours. Natural Clinoptilolite is safe for long-term, daily use and has been granted GRAS (Generally Recognized As Safe) status by the FDA. Given the fact that we are exposed to heavy metals and toxins every day through the air we breathe, food we eat, and water we drink, continuous use is recommended to help offset ongoing toxic exposure.
How does the Zeolite Detox Pack work?
The Zeolite Detox Pack uses natural zeolite to help detoxify the body of heavy metals and environmental pollutants. Our breakthrough processes created an optimized hydrated zeolite from whole Clinoptilolite zeolite and pure water. It is safe and gentle enough for everyday use.
What are the ingredients in the Zeolite Detox Pack?
Both Pure Body and Pure Body Extra have only two ingredients: natural Clinoptilolite (zeolite) and pure water. Both zeolite supplements are preservative-free, gluten-free, non-GMO and are all natural.
How do Pure Body and Pure Body Extra work together?
Pure Body is sized so that some will be absorbed into the bloodstream, and some will provide detoxification through the digestive tract. Pure Body Extra is sized in the nanometer range, small enough to fit inside water molecule clusters, for full absorption into the bloodstream to a cellular level. Together they provide a whole-body detox.
What is a zeolite?
Zeolites are a class of mineral formed by the chemical reaction of volcanic ash with seawater. They have a three-dimensional crystalline structure of open pores or channels that looks like a honeycomb (or cage) and are one of the few negatively-charged minerals in nature. There are over 40 natural zeolites and as many as 150 synthetic zeolites used today. We use only natural Clinoptilolite zeolite.
Why is a natural zeolite better than a synthetic zeolite?
We use natural Clinoptilolite zeolite because all of the science, safety and efficacy research has been done on Clinoptilolite. The label should say Clinoptilolite and not the generic term for zeolite (sodium aluminosilicate), which covers 40+ different types or synthetic zeolite. It is also unknown whether a "lab-grown" zeolite has complete zeolite cages (or just fragments). The complete zeolite cage is needed for the charge-based ion exchange to take place. This is where a bad ion (e.g. lead) is swapped for a good ion (e.g. calcium). Pure Body Extra is formulated using whole Clinoptilolite sized in the nanometer range and encapsulated within water molecule clusters for optimal cell uptake.
How do zeolites work?
The porous nature of the zeolite and its negative charge, allows for the selective exchange of positively-charged toxins. Inside each zeolite are positively-charged exchangeable (lighter) metals known as cations, usually calcium, magnesium, sodium and potassium. These ions are only loosely held and can be readily displaced by other substances, such as toxic heavy metals or other organics in a process called cationic exchange. Zeolites have a preference or affinity for heavy metals due to the positive charge and fit of heavy metals within the zeolite cage.
What toxins can zeolite remove?
The zeolite Clinoptilolite helps remove heavy metals and positively-charged toxins and Volatile Organic Compounds including:
- Aluminum
- Lead
- Mercury
- Cadmium
- Arsenic
- Radioactive Metals
- Nitrosamines
- Bisphenol-A
- Toulene
- Benzene
- Pesticides
- Herbicides
Can I take zeolite with my supplements?
Yes! Whole food supplements are fully bioavailable to the body (unlike synthetics or isolates which can create a weak positive charge) and will not be captured by the zeolite in any way.
What are the health benefits of zeolite?
As heavy metals and toxins are removed, the body can function at an optimal level. Through supporting the immune system, trapping free radicals and helping to balance the body’s pH, you may find you have improved energy levels, a more restful sleep, improved focus and clarity, and an overall sense of well-being.* As a natural mineral, zeolites are not drugs. Our products are not intended to diagnose, treat, cure or prevent any disease.
Can pregnant women take Zeolite?
While the zeolite Clinoptilolite has been granted GRAS (Generally Recognized As Safe) status by the FDA, and multiple studies have been conducted on pregnant animals, no studies have been conducted on humans. As with every supplement, each person should consult with their health care professional.
Can pets use the Zeolite Detox Pack?
Yes, all animals can benefit from the zeolite Clinoptilolite. Since pets are often directly exposed to heavy metals and toxins on pavements or pesticide-treated lawns, they can benefit from detoxification. Simply add the drops to water and spray the zeolite in their mouth, just reducing the serving based on the pet's size.
How long does zeolite stay in the body?
Once consumed, the zeolite Clinoptilolite immediately encounters toxins and through cationic exchange, captures and traps toxins both within and on its zeolite cages. Zeolite is not stored in the body. The zeolite will stay active in the body for a period of approximately 4 to 6 hours, before being excreted through normal bodily processes. Given its short time frame in the body, the suggested serving of Pure Body and Pure Body Extra is three times a day for optimal detoxification.
Why is only Clinoptilolite zeolite used in the Zeolite Detox Pack?
Clinoptilolite has been widely studied for efficacy and safety, with over 300 papers posted on the National Institutes of Health website (PubMed.org). Other zeolites have not been studied and while most types of zeolite are inert (like ours), some can be toxic.
Do zeolites remove good minerals in addition to the bad heavy metals?
No, zeolites only have an affinity for heavy metals and toxins. Clinoptilolite is a rare negatively-charged mineral. Most toxins and heavy metals are positively-charged. Like a magnet, the zeolite attracts and then traps positively-charged toxins before passing through the body. What makes zeolite so special is that it is highly selective and ONLY takes out toxins. During our proprietary cleansing process, the zeolite is filled with minerals such as calcium, magnesium and potassium. When it takes in a bad ion such as lead, it gives back a good ion such as calcium to the body. That means there is NO mineral depletion. This swapping bad for good (or cation exchange) is what makes zeolite a highly effective and safe detox.
Are there any side effects in taking zeolite?
The zeolite Clinoptilolite has been granted GRAS (Generally Recognized As Safe) status by the Food and Drug Administration. Since zeolites will attract water to facilitate the detoxification process, adequate filtered water intake is suggested (8 to 10 glasses a day). If any signs of dehydration do appear (headaches, tiredness), increase your water intake and reduce your zeolite intake for that day.
How is zeolite absorbed into the body?
When properly sized, zeolite is absorbed through the small intestine (villi). Most other zeolite supplements have a minimal percentage of sub-micron particles, so the majority goes to the large intestine for a limited detox effect. Pure Body Extra undergoes a proprietary process to create a particle size in the nanometer range so that it is fully absorbed into the bloodstream and travels with water throughout the body.
If zeolite is formed from silicon and aluminum, can aluminum be released into the body?
No. There is no free aluminum in the zeolite; it is part of the molecular structure of the zeolite. This form of aluminum is totally inert and does not interact with the body in any way, as proven in numerous studies. This is further demonstrated in our third-party tested chemical analysis, where the zeolite cage was dissolved using a strong acid mixture called Aqua Regia, and shows the chemical constituent of aluminum. The molecular structure of zeolite is indestructible in the body. Zeolites are neither water nor fat soluble, and the molecule can withstand high heat.
How is the zeolite optimized for detox?
We properly size the zeolite for maximum absorption and thoroughly clean it for effective detox potential; with third-party testing every step of the way. Our zeolite undergoes a proprietary milling process that reduces the size of each of the zeolite cages for digestive and body detox (Pure Body) and to the nanometer range for a cellular detox (Pure Body Extra).
Many providers simply mechanically pulverize the zeolite cages, which can damage the cages and break the negative charge, rendering those zeolite cages completely ineffective. Our proprietary processing delivers intact zeolite cages, for negatively-charged zeolites optimally sized for absorption.
We then clean the zeolite in a multi-step proprietary process that releases any existing heavy metals and toxins from the zeolite cages, removes them, and replaces those toxins with the exchangeable cations calcium, magnesium, sodium and potassium. These cations are then exchanged in the body when heavy metals and toxins are encountered, giving the body a calcium or magnesium ion in exchange for a lead, mercury, cadmium ion or other toxin. Even so, the amount of calcium, potassium, magnesium or sodium received into the body (in exchange for the toxin) is so minute it is not considered a form of supplementation of that mineral.
Why is a liquid better than a powdered zeolite?
In addition to knowing the composition and cleanliness of the zeolite, particle size is paramount in determining the absorption of the zeolite in the body. Most powdered zeolites are large in particle size making it ineffective for systemic detoxification and unpleasant to drink scoops of powder in water. Individual sub-micron particles (less than one millionth of a meter) are not visible to the naked eye. The percentage of sub-micron particles in a powdered zeolite can be easily lost in the air moving it from the canister to the water. The proven particle size of Pure Body ensures optimal detoxification and trillions of tiny particles are suspended in water so you get the benefit of each one.
Why should I avoid zeolites supplements with vitamins and minerals?
To create an effective zeolite supplement, the zeolite cages of Pure Body and Pure Body Extra are filled with exchangeable cations of calcium, magnesium, sodium and potassium combined with pure water, so it is ready to detox your body. There are other zeolite providers who mix zeolites in a liquid base of synthetic vitamins, or other substances. Synthetic vitamins can carry a positive charge. And while zeolites have an affinity for highly-charged toxins, sitting the zeolite cages for months with substances that carry even a weak positive charge could lead the zeolite to absorb those materials, and render it ineffective for detoxing the body.
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 – the zeolite must come in contact with the individual positively-charged particle.
