Now, you
mentioned before that 40% is used in the bowel, 60% in the kidney, and there is
some discussion about nitrosamines.
Absolutely. Certainly about 40% of the zeolite is active
in the digestive tract and excreted through fecal matter. Sixty percent can be
measured as being absorbed in the bloodstream and is excreted through the
kidneys and through urine.
One of the actions in the
digestive tract is its ability to attract to itself nitrosamines, adsorb them,
and pull them out of the body. Nitrosamines
are compounds that are found in cooked meats and have been indicated in
increased risk for colon cancer. So it’s important to know that we’re
pulling these out of the body.
What’s the shelf
life? You had mentioned that this is an invincible molecule. Is there anything
you can’t take this in or use this with?
As I said before, for all
practical purposes the molecule is invincible. It takes about 900 degrees and
about five hours to crack this molecule. The only thing we can do is, when we
activate it, we heat it to very high temperatures and we elongate the bond so
we can spread the bond, you can make it a bigger cage in an effort to empty out
the cage and activate it, but we can’t crack the molecule. It’s also
amphoteric, which means it exists just as well in acid as in base, so you can
put it in hot food, cold food, you can freeze it, defrost it, you can do pretty much anything to
this and you are not going to change the efficacy of the product.
And there’s 100%
removal of the zeolite from the body. None of it stores anywhere in your system
when you take it?
Yes, there’s no place for the zeolite to
deposit. There’s 100% excretion somewhere within the 4 - 7 hour time frame.
Somebody asked me
if this was going to be affected by the CODEX ALIMENTARIUS. How do you respond
to that?
CODEX is under the World
Health Organization and under the UN and most of the concerns with the CODEX
have to do the vitamin and mineral content and the amounts of vitamins and
minerals based on RDA. Recommended Daily Allowances were first created to have
a minimum in the body. For example, Vitamin C, the RDA is 60 mg. so if you get
60 mg. of vitamin C on a daily basis, you won’t get scurvy, you won’t be
deficient in that vitamin C. And the argument with the CODEX is the fact that
they’re saying that the RDA should be the maximum allowable in the dietary
supplement or maximum recommended in the dietary supplement – not the minimum –
and became the big sticky point. But the CODEX doesn’t really affect herbal
products and doesn’t really affect non-supplements. The zeolite is not truly a
supplement; it doesn’t supplement the diet. It doesn’t bring anything into the
body. It’s a detoxifying agent and the simplest way to think about it, is that
you’re ingesting a clean cage and you’re excreting a dirty one.
How much should a
person take, if they’re just taking this, in general?
In general, for a
basically healthy individual, we recommend a detox dose of 10 drops, three
times a day for one to two weeks. That will detoxify the body and then they can
drop the dose to 3 drops, three times a day–and it is recommended that you
detox or use that higher dose anywhere from once to twice a year.
Now, I was on the
higher dose and it took me six weeks to notice a major clearing of brain fog.
How long could you take a higher dose, if you can afford to?
Really, as long as you
want to. There is no upper limit for the product. It’s considered to be
completely safe and non-toxic, so everything really becomes about cost
efficiency.
What can people
say about this? Explain the difference, if you would, what someone could say
about a drug and what someone can say about a nutritional?
Well, in essence, a drug
is allowed to make disease state claims. A nutritional can never make a claim
as to the treatment or prevention of any symptom or disease. Those are drug
claims.
So mostly what we talk
about is supporting a healthy system, supporting a healthy immune system,
supporting a healthy kidney and liver system, the support of healthy pH levels
in the body, the support of proper detoxification of the body. These are all
claims that are allowed to be made.
And this is a
mineral that it is in the government’s GRAS list. What does that mean?
In the FDA, in the code
of federal regulations they have something called GRAS status (Generally
Recognized as Safe), and this particular zeolite, the aluminum silicate, is
listed as GRAS, which is recognized to be safe to be used in food and food
additives.
And ours is a
mined source, versus that which is extracted from plants? Is there a
difference?
Yes, ours is mined, but
there really isn’t a difference. One of the points that was made is that there
are botanical sources of zeolites - plants that pull it up. Certainly, zeolites
are used in fertilizer and things like that because it can pull into the
plants, but it’s a much more efficient way to get this particular zeolite as a
mined source.
Are there any
final thoughts or comments that you would like to make?
We’ve said it before and
I’ll say it again, this is not a panacea. This is something we know works
through a physical mechanism of action. But people who do give it a chance –
people who use it – are going to see profound effects in their health and their
wellness.
