Zeolites are a group of microporous, crystalline minerals with well-defined structures of the alkaline or alkaline-earth metals. There are approximately 40 natural volcanic zeolite minerals and over 150 synthetically produced zeolites.
Due to the unique structure of the zeolite molecule and the fact that it one of the few negatively charged minerals in nature, it acts like a magnet drawing positively charged toxins to it and trapping these toxins within its micropourous structure. Zeolite'unique structure contains cages or channels which are the right size to allow small molecules (roughly between 3 and 10 angstroms) to enter. Once the toxin is pulled into the cage like structure of the zeolite, it is carried out of the cell and eliminated by the body .
