The reason zeolites are now attracting so much interest lies in their strict crystalline structure with minute channels running in different
directions which have a negative charge allowing the absorption and adsorption of heavy and radioactive metals and numerous toxins.
One of the most interesting properties of zeolite is selective ionic exchange
between the chemical elements in its structure and the environment they are in. This is what can be called an "intelligent" ionic exchange.
ZEOLITE (CLINOPTILOLITE) AND ANIMALS
Nowadays zeolite is used in agriculture in Russia in animal feeds with the purpose of strengthening the immune system of
farm animals, regulate metabolism, prevent gastro-intestinal infection. The result is healthy offspring, healthy growth,
good overall health. They have also demonstrated increased fertility and the birth of healthy offspring in a large number of studies on animals.
