Guest guest Posted August 19, 2008 Report Share Posted August 19, 2008 Ahh.. it appears to be a sort of adsorbent aluminosilicate mineral.. Its used in aquarium and swimming pool filters, kitty litter, etc. I have not been able to find the basis for the many vague references as to it binding mycotoxins in humans, or any specifics on its efficacy in animals. There must be some veterinary data. Does anybody have any links or threads as to where it could be found? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He doesn't mention zeolite or brown seaweed though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted August 19, 2008 Report Share Posted August 19, 2008 Live, You are so used to critiquing my posts, you have addressed this to me and I haven't even commented on it, but now I am drawn in. Zeolite is a trace mineral and has similar action to activated charcoal as it's molecule has many small spaces that absorb things. I used it along with a number of other things to try to chelate lead out of my body from exposure to lead based paint. My lead levels are zero now but I can't say what drew the lead out since I did a number of things. My body may have done it on it's own even. My Austin air cleaner has activated charcoal and also zeolite powder in it to absorb odors and gases. I don't know if it would detoxify mycotoxins. --- In , LiveSimply <quackadillian@...> wrote: > > Barb/Jill- > > There isn't much on zeolite and mycotoxins on the huge medical database Pubmed. > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted August 19, 2008 Report Share Posted August 19, 2008 Hi Live, I have a ton of papers but maybe not all have abstracts on pubmed. I may end up writing about zeolite at some point. Try " clinoptilolite " and see what you get --- In , LiveSimply <quackadillian@...> wrote: > > Barb/Jill- > > What is " Zeolite " ? > > Is it some kind of clay or earth-based mineral? > > There isn't much on zeolite and mycotoxins on the huge medical database Pubmed. > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
