Toxins and other hazardous substances, such as free radicals, are drawn to and captured in the cavities of zeolites. The cleaning supplies we use around our households, the skin care products we routinely use, the food we eat, the water we drink every day, and the air we breathe all contain some toxins, usually. The removal of these harmful particles enables our cells to continue functioning properly and heal whatever harm they sustain. Heavy metals are also potentially dangerous to our cells.

The problem with heavy metals entering the body through toxins in our food and other environmental contaminants is that they build up in the organs and tissues of the body. In particular, they strain the liver’s capacity to break down substances for the body’s use and get rid of harmful substances. Zeolites are highly effective at capturing these harmful heavy metals. Heavy metals are not the only dangerous substances that harm our bodies. Free radicals and other harmful particles that target our cells destroy the tissue and cells they attack. When they are outside the cells, these toxins attack cellular membranes, and once inside the cell, free radicals, or atoms and molecules with unpaired electrons, attack the DNA.

Antioxidants typically prevent or eliminate these particles, but as we become older or, we lack antioxidants from the food, the antioxidant network can no longer function properly, and cells are altered by toxins which might lead to cancer and the growth of tumors/dis-ease. In order to prevent them from harming our DNA, the cells in our body must successfully fight them off, and Zeolites can aid in this fight. Zeolite functions as a component of the antioxidant network, reducing some of the damage and stopping the chain reaction of oxidative attack.
