Clay Baths - A Safe Method for Body Detoxification
By Cheryl McCoy
"Detoxing" – the myriad and sundry ways of removing metals, toxins, and other nasties from the body - is becoming increasingly popular in alternative and natural medicine, and appears to be inching its way into the more traditional medical arenas as well. The beneficial health results produced by these procedures cannot be ignored. As a result, it seems that everywhere you turn, there are companies claiming to have the best product for detoxing your system. "Clay and water... those two lifelines are all you will often need to return your body to a state of optimal health," states Perry A., author of Living Clay, Nature's Own Miracle Cure.
According to Jason Eaton (www.eytonsearth.org): "There are many methods available in both alternative and natural medicine that are designed to "detoxify the body". However, nearly all of them do exactly the opposite: They stimulate the body to release toxic byproducts stored in fat, organs, and other tissues. The result is that these substances are dumped back into the active metabolism. The body, then, is placed under a great deal of toxic stress, even to the point of toxic shock.
This poses quite a problem, for the body has stored these substances for a very specific reason: It has been incapable of eliminating the substances without causing significant damage. Therefore, the short cut "quick fix" methods to detoxify the body can actually be quite dangerous, and the natural and comprehensive methods can require a lot of attention, hard work, and anywhere from six months to three years to accomplish, and are often accompanied by uncomfortable symptoms as the body cleans itself." What is lacking is an avenue to get the released toxins out of the body.
So what's a person to do? Many experts, including Jason Eaton, recommend clay baths for detoxing and chelation.
Clay baths have been safely used for centuries. These days, they're used to treat everything from tired, achy muscles to heavy metal poisoning, radiation and chemical/pesticide exposure. Very recently, some surprising and encouraging results have been reported when using clay baths to treat autism.
Certain clays have the ability to remove toxins through the pores of the skin. Discussing clay baths, in his book The Clay Cure, Ran Knishinsky states, "It is a fairly simple procedure, and it can do a lot of good in a relatively short time. Because of clay's excellent drawing effect, the clay has the power to literally pull toxicities through the pores of the skin in the bath." And Wendell Hoffman, author of Using Energy to Heal, found that bentonite clay, when used in a bath, can and does draw out toxic chemicals through the pores of the skin.
Jason Eaton states on his website: "Taking a therapeutic clay bath, lasting anywhere from 15 minutes to two hours, is one of the most effective methods in existence to help assist the body in the elimination of toxic substances which have accumulated in the body. Clay baths stimulate the lymphatic system and deeply cleanse the body's largest breathing organ (the skin). Acting both directly on the body and acting as a systematic catalyst, clay used in this manner interacts directly with the body's immune system, and helps to remove the post-digestive burden placed on the major organs of the body."
Dr. Miriam Jang, M.D., author of "Breakthroughs in Autism," a synopsis of the DAN protocol, says: "I have put a huge number of patients on these clay baths and the levels of heavy metals – mercury, lead, arsenic, aluminum, and cadmium have come down dramatically... I have been monitoring the levels of metals using all three methods (TD DMPS, oral DMSA and clay baths) and the clay baths are way faster in the removal of metals…One particular patient had very high levels of mercury and levels of lead that were off the charts. In 3 months of twice weekly clay baths, the lead came down dramatically and the mercury disappeared. The muscle weakness associated with high lead levels improved dramatically. Interestingly enough, another 5 months of these clay baths showed even lower levels of lead but the mercury reappeared. This supports the theory that mercury is sequestered in different areas of our body and it takes time to get it all out."
Clay baths may be used for heavy metal toxicity, general chemical toxicity, radiation and chemotherapy recovery, general systemic support by stimulating the lymphatic system, comprehensive cleansing protocols, as well as simply for relaxation and enjoyment. They are wonderful for relieving stress and helping to relax, especially in the evening before bed.
Choosing the Right Clay:
It's important to choose carefully when selecting a clay for your clay baths. While certain clays are ideal, and others are acceptable though not as good, others should be avoided altogether. For clay baths, the experts agree that clean, raw, natural swelling smectite clays are the best. This includes swelling bentonites and montmorillonites, which are often referred to as Living Clays. It's vital to avoid any contaminated clays, as well as any clays with additives. Clay should be stored in containers that are completely sealed, and kept away from petroleum chemicals. Clay should not come into prolonged contact with metals.
Preparing a Clay Bath:
There are several methods that can be used to prepare a clay bath. When using dry powder clay, you can simply scatter 2 cups of dry powder clay into the water as it's running and use your hands to mix it and swish away any lumps of clay that might form. To avoid lumps altogether, you can 'premix' the clay to a liquid state by mixing approximately 1 part clay to 8 parts water in a lidded container. Shake vigorously, and allow the clay to sit for a couple of hours, then shake again. Use 4 cups or more of liquid clay in your bath. A clay bath should last ideally between 15-20 minutes in extremely hot water and longer in a less hot bath. Submerge as much of your body as possible during the bath. The more clay that is used in the therapy, the more powerful the response.
In some rare severely toxic cases the clay may turn dark and gooey. If the water has not turned dark, after your bath scoop some of the clay water to water your plants. Run lots of water to rinse the clay out of your tub.
Jason Eaton states, "Hot showers, baths, and steam treatments cause a forced respiration through the skin, resulting in a rapid uptake of gases, ions, and water directly into the tissues of the body. Indeed, any time one isolates a location of the body, covering it with any substance and then applying heat (even if this is only heat generated by insulation), an "environmental exchange" is going to occur, resulting in the absorption of substances through the skin and the release of substances through the pores of the body." For this reason, he recommends nothing be added to the clay bath – no herbs, oils, fragrances, etc. Herbal treatments, or other skin treatments can be done after the clay bath if desired. The only exception to this rule would be the addition of natural sea salt, which simply acts as a tonic, and increases the ion exchange capability of the clay in a clay bath.

MISINFORMATION REGARDING NATURAL CELLULAR DEFENSE(Liquid Zeolite)
Occasionally misinformation rears its ugly head on the Internet attempting to discredit an otherwise worthwhile natural remedy. Due diligence requires adequate research to assess whether or not claims can be substantiated. Natural Cellular Defense is by far the most effective detoxification product I have ever worked with, proving time and again that it does, in fact, remove heavy metals in a safe and effective manner. I am often approached regarding an article posted on the Internet by Jonathan Campbell and asked to address the claims made about possible ineffectiveness and even danger when taking a natural zeolite product. This article proves not only Jonathan Campbell's ignorance on the subject but also his lack of research skills. Even though his claims have been proven to be woefully inaccurate and completely irresponsible as addressed quite some time ago by the leading scientist at Waiora, Rik Deitsch, Jonathan Campbell for some reason continues to keep his false information posted on his web site. For that reason I wish to post the response made by Rik Deitsch here for your consideration. It also serves the purpose of better explaining the background and efficacy of Natural Cellular Defense.
Rik Deitsch responds to critics:
I have just read Jonathan Campbell's website where he makes unfounded and malicious attacks on the use of natural zeolite as a dietary supplement. I would like to address his points and assure everyone that the Natural Cellular Defense is in fact a completely safe and non-toxic product that is based on a granted U.S. Patent and supported by dozens of clinical and epidemiological studies that have been published in the peer-reviewed medical literature.
As background, it's important to understand that there are more than 100 different zeolites. As an example, asbestos is a zeolite and causes cancer when inhaled as a fine powder. The zeolite used in the Natural Cellular Defense is naturally-occurring non-fibrous clinoptilolite and is considered to be extremely safe and entirely non-toxic (even when inhaled). A study published in 1993 concluded that "clinoptilolite type zeolite had no carcinogenic activity." (Tatrai E, Ungvary G. Study on carcinogenicity of clinoptilolite type zeolite in Wistar rats. Pol J Occup Med Environ Health. 1993;6(1):27-34.)
Additionally, Mr. Campbell suggests that there are no long-term animal or human toxicity studies. This is also incorrect. The zeolite in the Natural Cellular Defense has been used in water filtration, air purification, plant fertilizers and animal feed for more than thirty years in the United States. There are hundreds of published studies and articles that outline the uses and benefits of our form of zeolite in humans and animals. Not to mention that there is over 800 years of traditional use throughout India, China and Russia. It is quite obvious that Mr. Campbell could not even be bothered to do a Medline search prior to regurgitating his inaccuracies on the website. Had he done so, he would have found no fewer than 140 articles on such topics as: removing heavy metals, improving the health of animals, treating viral disorders, removing fungal toxins, remediation soil and treating cancer. This search can be accessed at the National Institutes of
Health National Center for Biotechnology Information at the following link:
http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/entrez (search for "clinoptilolite")
Mr. Campbell also cites a paper on carcinogenicity which incorrectly lists clinoptilolite as a fibrous zeolite similar to erionite. In a paper on the clinoptilolite's effects on animal tumors, the researchers found that:
"Electron microscopy showed the absence of fibers, and most particles were round with very rough surface. The absence of fibrous, positively charged particles was encouraging since such particles are present in asbestos and erionite zeolites, which are highly carcinogenic and mutagenic. In addition, activated zeolite particles did not catalyze the production of hydroxyl radicals, unlike asbestos or erionite. It seems that absence of fibrous particles capable of producing hydroxyl radicals makes this zeolite sample nontoxic and noncarcinogenic, at least when applied orally." (Pavelic K, et al Natural zeolite clinoptilolite: new adjuvant in anticancer therapy. J Mol Med. 2001;78(12):708-20.)
Mr. Campbell also states that there is no evidence of excretion. This too is incorrect and can be easily researched in the literature. In three separate studies specifically analyzing the ability of clinoptilolite to aid on the excretion of radioactive cesium particles, the zeolite was found to accelerate the excretion of Cs-137 from sheep's bodies. The whole effect resulted in 15 to 50 times lowering of the equilibrium concentration of the radiocaesium (Jandl J, Novosad J. [In vivo reduction of radiocesium with modified clinoptilolite in sheep] Vet Med (Praha). 1995Aug;40(8):237-41.)
Additionally, we are currently evaluating the Natural Cellular Defense in its ability to aid in the urinary excretion of heavy metals. This research is being conducted by Eno Research & Development (ERDI) in North Carolina in cooperation with Duke University staff. The study aims to quantify the type and amount of heavy metals that are excreted from patients using the product. We have already seen some promising results and expect the study to be completed in the first quarter of 2006 and we will seek publication of the data.
Mr. Campbell's next point is that he claims the clinoptilolite zeolite to be indiscriminate in what it adsorbs. This too is incorrect. There are dozens of published studies that outline the reactivity series of the zeolite, showing preference for the heavier metals and larger compounds that carry a positive charge. Many smaller compounds will move into the zeolite, but will not be trapped. These undergo simple buffering and are released back into the body. The ability of the zeolite to undergo cationic exchange has shown that there is a reproducible, quantifiable reactivity series. Additionally, several animal studies have shown that adding clinoptilolite to animal feed actually increases overall nutritional health of the animal. One study found that "clinoptilolite supplementation of the diets had no significant effect on vitamins' and minerals' uptake and their distribution in the body, since there was no alteration in their blood serum and liver/kidney concentrations." (Papaioannou DS, et al. Effect of in-feed inclusion of a natural zeolite (clinoptilolite) on certain vitamin, macro and trace element concentrations in the blood, liver and kidney tissues of sows. Res Vet Sci. 2002 Feb;72(1):61-8.)
I would also like to point out that the patent on the Natural Cellular Defense and all of the related research was conducted by biotechnology and pharmaceutical companies. This had nothing to do with zeolite mining companies as Mr. Campbell suggests.
Lastly, you should always ask why someone would take the time to write a diatribe like the one seen on Mr. Campbell's website. He answers this question himself by supplying a link to his own answer to natural cancer therapy. If you follow this link, it will lead to his offer to sell you his books, products and services. He actually charges $60 for your initial order of supplements and $20 per month thereafter just for his consulting services. He clearly states that, "Note that this charge is for the ordering service only, and does not include the cost of the supplements, which range in price between $100 and $300 per month, depending on the illness."
Always question the source of inflammatory material. Do your due diligence and review published literature from uninterested, unbiased third parties.
I hope that this information is helpful.
Sincerely,
Rik J. Deitsch

URINE TESTING CONFIRMS AUTISM IS MERCURY POISONING - News Release
By Kate Adams
US Autism & Asperger Association, Inc.
********************
WASHINGTON, DC - A new peer-reviewed scientific/medical case study confirms that many children with autistic spectrum disorders (ASDs)suffer from mercury poisoning. The new study, "A Prospective Study of Mercury Toxicity Biomarkers in Autistic Spectrum Disorders" by Mr. David A. Geier and Dr. Mark R. Geier has been published in the most recent issue of the Journal of Toxicology and Environmental Health,
Part A (volume 70, issue 20, pgs 1723-1730).
This study utilized urinary porphyrin profile analysis (UPPA) to assess body-burden and physiological effects of mercury in children diagnosed with ASDs.
Using UPPA, Geier and Geier (2007) examined 71 children diagnosed with ASDs, neurotypical siblings, and general population controls. The researchers studied urinary porphyrin patterns using results reported both by the US Laboratory Corporation of America (LabCorp) and the French Laboratoire Philippe Auguste.
Their findings demonstrated that:
* Only the non-chelated patients diagnosed with ASDs had porphyrin patterns indicative of clinical mercury toxicity.
* Treating ASD diagnosed patients with chelating agents resulted in lower mercury-specific urinary porphyrins.
* The UPPA patterns reported were consistent between the two labs used.
The results of the present study confirm and extend previous observations by Nataf et al. (2006) and Geier and Geier (2006) on the use of UPPA profiling to establish the causal role for mercury in ASDs. Additionally, the current findings are consistent with those observed by many other physicians who treat patients diagnosed with both ASDs and mercury toxicity.
Thus, urinary porphyrin profile testing is being successfully used to:
* Demonstrate the role of mercury in ASD populations,
* Identify those children and adults who are mercury poisoned, and
* Track mercury excretion from affected children undergoing treatment.
For the past several years there has been a raging controversy as to whether or not mercury in medicines, especially in vaccines, has caused a dramatic rise in the rate of children diagnosed with an ASD.
Many experts have insisted ASDs are caused by some yet-to-be-identified genetic cause. A paper recently published in Nature Genetics described the results of multi-million-dollar genetics study (which studied a thousand-plus families with at least two children diagnosed with an ASD using in-depth genetic screening). Tellingly, the authors reported, "None of our linkage results can be interpreted as 'statistically significant'."(The Autism Genome Project Consortium 2007).
With the current study's results, public health officials should now publicly admit what they have been saying in their private transcripts and memos: Mercury from Thimerosal-containing vaccines and other medicines has been a major cause of ASD cases, which, based on recent CDC estimates (CDC 2007), may exceed a rate of one in 100 children.
Today, any parent, physician, or healthcare provider can easily confirm whether a non-chelated child with an ASD diagnosis is mercury poisoned by having UPPA testing run at either laboratory.

The following article answers many questions on the topic of Natural Cellular Defense and its ability to remove heavy metals from the body in a safe and effective manner.
NATURAL CELLULAR DEFENSE [ZEOLITE]
By Dr. Jim Howenstine, MD
The pharmaceutical industry earns one trillion dollars each year from the sale of chemotherapy drugs. If anyone thinks that this industry will soon be bringing forth a new therapy that will cure cancer they may wish to revaluate this thinking. These people are brilliant at controlling the media and encouraging the public that “the cure is just around the corner.” If they were to cure cancer it would be the biggest mistake they have ever made and they are not accustomed to making mistakes.
One of the key factors in successful therapy of cancer is removal of toxic metals (mercury, arsenic, lead, cadmium, aluminum, iron, uranium etc.) from the body.
Dr. Josef Issel of Germany had great success treating cancer with fever, organic raw food, enzymes and immune stimulating methods. In his office a biologic dentist removed metal amalgams (mercury) and mercury dental deposits from these patients. His methods were so successful he earned a three year stay in a German prison in the site reserved for convicted murderers.
In Dr. Thomas Rau’s Paracelsus Clinic in Switzerland most patients seen are terminally ill from malignancies that have failed chemotherapy and radiation. Fifty percent of patients with stage 4 (advanced) cancer recover. Their therapeutic program consists of:
• Opening up missing tooth sites to remove hidden mercury deposits
• Removal of all root canal teeth
• Careful removal of all mercury fillings
• Detoxify the patient from mercury and other harmful substances
Obviously toxic metals play a major role in causing cancer and their removal can greatly assist recovery. The substance zeolite (Natural Cellular Defense) acts primarily by removing toxic metals from the body.
Zeolites are minerals formed when molten lava contacts water from lakes or ocean. A specific member of the zeolite family of minerals called “clinoptilolite” has a unique honeycomb like structure which has the ability to trap and bind toxins, heavy metals, viral particles, and other impurities so these substances can be removed from the body. The clinoptilolite type of zeolite can be activated by a process which removes naturally occurring toxins. The end product results in a 100 % natural completely non-toxic liquid that is safe for human consumption (FDA rating G.R.A.S. Generally Recognized As Safe). In a liquid form carried by the blood stream zeolites are believed to pass to all parts of the body.
The clinoptilolite form of zeolite has been used for more than 800 years in traditional medicine to improve general health in India, China, Russia and nearly every part of Asia. In the United States this has been used in water filtration, air purification, animal feed and fertilizers to keep crops healthy.
Zeolites are negatively charged which is not common among minerals. This negative charge facilitates the migration of positively charged toxic minerals into the zeolite cages and onto the surfaces of zeolite where these substances can be transported for elimination in stools and urine. There is a preferential order of zeolite attraction to minerals .of heavier weight before proceeding to lighter minerals. This is manifested by trapping of mercury, uranium, arsenic, and cadmium before lighter minerals are captured (magnesium, calcium, lead). Zeolites can be considered molecular sieves and filtering agents who are able to trap positively charged atoms, ions, and compounds for removal from the body.
What Can Zeolite (Natural Cellular Defense) Accomplish?
• Remove Toxic Heavy Metals (uranium, aluminum, lead, mercury, arsenic, cadmium etc). This improves enzyme function.
• Trap and remove viral particles from the body
• Improve immune function so colds and influenza are less likely to occur
• Improve pH levels so infectious organisms have a less favorable site to survive
• Trap protons in the digestive tract making acid reflux less troublesome
• Improve nutrient absorption
• Removal of toxins and chemicals improves immune function
• Trapping allergens in blood and digestive tract decreases symptoms from inhaled and swallowed antigens
• Absorptive action in the intestines may stop diarrhea
• Can be of great value in life threatening and chronic disease states.
Is Zeolite A Chelating Substance?
Zeolite has a great affinity for heavier metals such as mercury, uranium, arsenic, cadmium, aluminum and a lesser affinity for metals of lower weight (lead, calcium, magnesium). In two published studies involving goats, sheep, and cows half the animals received zeolite along with food and vitamins and the others received the same therapy but no zeolite. The animals receiving the zeolite had better nutritional status and better mineral content in their bodies than the animals not taking zeolite. The zeolite animals lost toxic metals and had better levels of calcium and magnesium than the animals not taking zeolite. Zeolite is an important chelating agent which appears to bind more metals than standard EDTA used in chelation.
What Can NCD Do In Allergic Diseases (Migraine Headaches, Asthma)?
Patients with migraine headaches frequently are aware that certain foods will trigger headache attacks (red wine, preserved meats treated with nitrites and nitrates such as sausages, hot dogs, salami, caffeine, chocolate, some dairy products{aromatic cheeses} etc.). NCD can remove some of these triggers for migraine attacks by physically absorbing the offending substances in the intestines.
Asthmatic patients are exposed to pollen, dust, molds, and air polluted by chemicals and smog all of which may initiate bronchospasm (wheezing). Often the offending substances are heavily charged making them susceptible to removal by NCD before they cause asthma attacks. Many persons with allergic disorders have noticed a decrease in symptoms after starting NCD therapy.
Use Of NCD In Hyperacidity And Acid Reflux States
The ability of zeolite to bind gastric acid can be dramatically effective in some individuals suffering from painful reflux of gastric acid onto the esophagus . Other persons with indigestion related to gastric acid may also obtain relief.
Possible Benefits From NCD In Arteriosclerosis
There are several important concepts regarding the initiation of arteriosclerosis. One of these is that arteriosclerosis results from the infiltration of the endothelial lining of the arteries with toxic heavy metals. The inner lining of the artery is the site where the important vasodilator substance nitric acid is created.
The endothelium also produces prostacyclin which decreases clotting of blood and causes dilating of arteries. A third important endothelial substance is heparin, a potent substance that prevents clots from forming. Excessive deposition of heavy metals in the endothelium diminishes the endothelium’s ability to produce valuable nitric oxide, prostacyclin and heparin. Removal of these toxic metals restores the endothelium’s ability to produce these vital substances which stops and may even reverse arteriosclerosis.
Inflammatory reactions in the body (often related to infections such as gingivitis, pneumonia, viral infections etc.) can be a stimulus for arteriosclerotic plaques to suddenly develop. Bacteria and viruses have been transported from these inflammatory sites to the endothelial lining of arteries. .Careful studies of persons suffering strokes and heart attacks has revealed that up to 25 or 30 % of these persons have a history of an infectious disease in the several days preceding the vascular event.
Experts in the field of gum disease have warned that there is mountain of evidence that there is an unusually high rate of gingivitis in persons developing heart attacks and strokes. Therapy that heals gingivitis (Oral Guard) could protect many patients from having heart attacks and strokes.
Signs of inflammation such as elevated levels of CRP and sedimentation rates are a valuable clue that artery narrowing and related vascular occlusion is a strong possibility. The body reacts to infectious processes by walling off the area of infection. The blood in these sites becomes sludgy with poor blood flow. Plaque formation becomes accelerated in these sites of impaired oxygen delivery. Resolving these abnormal indicators of infection with agents like cucurmin is helping many patients escape vascular accidents.
Dr. Linus Pauley pointed out that Vitamin C and lysine could correct the collagen deficiency seen in arteriosclerosis with healing of narrowed arteries. This information was nearly completely ignored by conventional medicine. Coronary by-pass surgery, and the placing of stents and angioplastic opening of narrowed arteries are big business for the medical community. The fact that surgical procedures are being performed for what is a degenerative inflammatory disorder of arteries has not slowed the wave of surgery. Curative therapy for arteriosclerosis needs to reverse the abnormal events in the lining of the arteries and eliminate the infections that initiate vascular occlusions.
Homocysteine elevation, increased clotting factors (fibrinogen, platelets, lipoprotein (a) excess) and meals prepared with synthetic transfats all contribute to arteriosclerosis as does cholesterol elevation in a minor way.
Heavy metals inhibit both enzyme function and protein performance. Zinc finger proteins[1] are stabilized by the presence of a zinc atom in the middle of the protein. When this zinc atom is missing the protein will not work. These zinc finger proteins are necessary for cellular division. This is especially important for the immune system which requires extra cells when faced with a viral or bacterial infection. Supplemental zinc during infections normally helps the body create more immune cells. The zinc may also be displaced by heavy metals such as mercury and arsenic. Again the protein fails to function because of displaced zinc. Removing heavy metals from the body permits correct placement of zinc to occur with improved immune function and restored enzyme function resulting.
Adenosine triphosphate ATP is the prime energy source for the body. ATP needs a magnesium ion to be stabilized. Active ATP is called Magnesium ATP. Persons with mercury poisoning have the magnesium displaced by the excessive mercury levels. In this state of absent magnesium the body has less energy production and fatigue and weakness are common symptoms. When the mercury is removed energy output returns to normal. Many persons taking NCD have noticed that they have more energy within a few weeks of starting this therapy.
Because the affinity of zeolite for removal of heavy metals like arsenic, cadmium, mercury and uranium is greater than for lighter metals like calcium it tends to only remove calcium when there are no or few heavier metals to absorb to. This results in slow removal of the calcium found in arteriosclerotic plaques. The vitamin K2 would probably be more rapid in removing calcium from plaques and heel spurs than zeolite.
NCD helps the body improve artery function by eliminating toxic metals from the body, improving immune system function, improving pH levels, increasing oxygen levels in tissues and by improving enzyme function.
What Is Happening When Toxic Metals Leave The Body?
When zeolite from NCD captures toxic metals the zeolite combined with metals is excreted in urine and also becomes part of fecal waste. Approximately 60 % of zeolite leaves the body in urine and 40 % in fecal waste. One hundred percent[2] of zeolite is eliminated from the body within a 4 to 7 hour time frame. Because of this rapid elimination taking very large doses of NCD accomplishes nothing not achieved with conventional dosage.
When meat is cooked, particularly if burned, nitrosamines form. The nitrosamines have been implicated in causing colon cancer. An important action of zeolite is to trap and remove dangerous nitrosamines from the intestines.
As the mercury, lead, cadmium, arsenic, uranium etc. leave the body the blood levels of these substances decline. When this occurs there is now more mercury, cadmium, lead etc in the bones and other tissues than in the blood. This produces an osmotic effect which leads to slow steady migration of metals out of bones and tissues into the blood and then out of the body.
Lead has very important health ramifications. There is no amount of lead that is safe for the human body. Elevations of lead levels in humans are strongly correlated with the development of hypertension. When the lead is removed from the body the blood pressure returns to normal. Lead excess is also an important cause for cataract formation. Children with elevated levels of lead have a high incidence of poor academic performance, increased use of drugs and more anti-social behavior.
Lead is stored in bones. Modern man has 1000 times more lead in his bones than men living 400 years ago. Effective oral chelation therapy removes lead but may take 10 to 15 years to complete it’s removal from bone. An oral chelating therapy such as Essential Daily Defense removes lead by virtue of the presence of garlic powder.
An interesting and perhaps significant observation seen in persons taking zeolite is that some persons lose weight.[3] One theory proposed to explain this is that these toxic metals are so dangerous to the body they get surrounded by fat tissue to decrease their toxic effects. When NCD has led to loss of toxic metals the fat tissue may be metabolized away as these stored metals also get eliminated from the body.
How Does NCD Affect pH Values In The Body?
Normal body pH is slightly alkaline at 7.4. When the body pH falls to consistently low values 5 chronic degenerative diseases such as cancer, serious infections and arteriosclerosis may appear. Oxygen levels correlate with pH levels so acidic pH levels are associated with low oxygen levels in tissues. Hydrogen ions are small so they do not get trapped in zeolite. However, their acidic effect is balanced by the presence of alkaline zeolite leading to a neutral more healthy pH where disease has a harder time flourishing. Positively charged protons in the vicinity of zeolite become attracted into the cage and their disappearance raises local pH values to a safer level. When a cage with protons is transported to an area where there are few protons (not acidic).the protons will migrate back out of the cage. Thus the pH effects are localized[4] not systemic. For part two click below.
What Effect Does Zeolite Have On Autoimmune Diseases?
Auto-immune illnesses can be associated with an underactive immune system or an overactive immune system. Examples of an underactive immune function would include cancer and HIV disease. In both these conditions the underactive immune system fails to detect and kill cancer cells or fight off infections as would normally occur. One of the conditions with an overactive immune system would be rheumatoid arthritis In this disease the immune system attacks the membranes in the joints in an uncontrolled manner .resulting in progressive destruction of joints. NCD has a modulating effect on immune diseases which stimulates the immune system to perform more effectively in an underactive disorder and slows down the activity of the immune system in diseases where the immune system is operating excessively.
Are There Any Dangers In Using NCD along With Another Detoxifying Substance?
The use of NCD with other detoxifying substances, supplements and minerals is actually desirable.[1] Anything that improves the immune defense system such as selenium, Burbur, N-Acetyl Cysteine etc. appears to complement the effects of NCD.
What Health Problems Are Not Benefited By NCD?
Xenoestrogens from exposure to pesticides, herbicides, plastics and petrochemicals are too large or fail to exhibit a chemical charge making them fail to be attracted by zeolite. This results in no excretion upon exposure to NCD. However, there may be indirect benefits from use of NCD in persons exposed to xenoestrogens because NCD does have beneficial effects on glucuronidation which is an important liver detoxification pathway. This could improve liver performance in these patients.
Are There Effects On Aflatoxins?
Some fungi in foods like nuts and beans produce dangerous toxins called aflatoxins. There has also been a dramatic increase in aflatoxins found in foods entering the United States from foreign countries. These entering foods are routinely given massive doses of radiation without any subsequent labeling of the foods certifying radiation. This radiation kills the beneficial bacteria that normally prevent aflatoxins from becoming predominant. Chronic exposure to aflatoxins can lead to liver damage and hepatoma (liver cancer). Zeolites have been able to reduce aflatoxin infection in farm animals and would probably benefit humans in the same way.
What Does Zeolite Do To Prosthetic Structures Like Heart Valves, Breast Implants, Dental Amalgams, Hip Joint Replacement Parts And Vascular Stents?
It is important to realize that the effects of zeolite are passive. There is no active erosion of amalgams, hip replacements, breast implants or any other structures placed in the body. by health care practitioners.
Can Side Effects Be Seen During Zeolite Therapy?
Some persons report feeling sicker with increased pain during the early stages of zeolite therapy. When the body is mobilizing large amounts of toxic metals the excretion of the particles carries increased amounts of water out of the body along with the metal (osmotic effect). This fluid loss can be prevented by increasing the quantity of water ingested particularly in the early stages of therapy. Another reaction that occurs in about one percent of persons is a detoxification reaction (Herxheimer Reaction). These patients may develop muscle aching, headache, skin rash and malaise. This reaction is caused by liberation of toxic substances making it possible for them to react with body tissues causing a transient painful inflammatory response. For example, zeolite has greater attraction to cadmium than to lead so placing zeolite in the body might permit lead to become freed from a sequestered site when cadmium migrates to zeolite. This formerly sequestered lead is now capable of causing an inflammatory reaction. Herxheimer reactions can easily by terminated by decreasing the dosage or temporarily stopping NCD.
Zeolite’s Use In Malignancies
Zeolite has had 30 years of research performed by Dr. Harvey Kaufman. This culminated in a patent for the product. The Waiora company is funding ongoing research to learn more about the effects of NCD in humans and animals.
Because cancer is known to develop after exposure to toxic materials or procedures (asbestosis, radiation, mercury, fluoride, transfats, uranium, chlorine, viruses etc.) use of a therapy (zeolite) that steadily removes toxic metals, impurities, viral particles and toxins from the body is indicated in patients with malignancies.
Many parts of the world including the United States have seen rising numbers of patients with cancer. Uranium contamination has been found in 42 states where depleted uranium bombs and shells have been manufactured, stored or tested. The fastest growing leukemia cluster in the U.S. is found adjacent to the Fallon, Nevada. bombing and gunnery ranges. There is strong evidence that persons living within 20 or 30 miles of nuclear reactors have an increased level of malignancies. To make matters even worse the United States has sold depleted uranium bombs and shells to at least 29 nations around the world.
In the first 2 months of 2006 there were 172,000 cases of lung cancer[2] in the U.S. The whole year of 2005 only saw 175,000 cases of lung cancer. How can this be explained? This does not fit with inhalation of second hand smoke or cigarette smoking. High levels of uranium were found in the air at the Aldermaston research Center in northern England ten days after the second war in Iraq began with heavy bombing and shelling in Iraq. This suggests that all of Europe was contaminated with radiation at the onset of Gulf War II. There have now been 4 nuclear wars since World War II (Iraq twice, Afghanistan, Bosnia). The amount of radiation released since 1991 is greater than the equivalent radiation of 82,000 Nagasaki type nuclear devices. No news media in Europe or the U.S. discusses this as this is one of many forbidden topics.
My guess is significant amounts of uranium are being detected in U.S. air but this information is being concealed from the American public.
DU shells and bombs vaporize into particles 1/10 micron in size. These particles contain uranium which can penetrate all clothing and all known gas masks. Uranium particles trash the DNA of cells leading to mutations and malignancies between 3 and 5 years after initial exposure to uranium. These minute particles can be transported on prevailing winds around the world. The rapidly rising rate of U.S. lung cancers could be due to depleted uranium fallout in the United States.
Are There Any Therapies For Uranium Induced Malignancies That May Have Merit?
In Bosnia physicians have reported seeing patients with up to three simultaneous malignancies. This has never been previously reported in medicine. There is an epidemic of cancer in children in Iraq. Significant quantities of uranium have been found in persons living in Bahrain, India, Afghanistan and Iraq. The Aldermaston research facility reported levels of uranium sufficient to trigger immediate environmental agency notification 10 days after the start of Gulf War II. This means that all Europe was certainly contaminated with airborne uranium at that time. There is good reason to believe that eastern Europe was probably heavily contaminated during the warfare in Yugoslavia. As these nuclear wars expand more persons are steadily being exposed to deadly uranium in air. U.S. soldiers returning from Iraq in the second Gulf War have been found to be heavily contaminated with uranium even when not in combat roles. Currently persons living in northern Israel and all of Lebanon are probably being exposed to significant doses of uranium.
For the unfortunate victims of DU weapons, who have cancer, there are several therapies that may have merit. The homeopathic preparation uranium nitricum might be helpful. Fresh vegetable greens help detoxify the body from radiation injury. Chlorophyll and increased hydration is also helpful. Possibly some or most inhaled uranium particles become trapped in mucous covering the alveolar cells in the lung. Mucolyxir and N-acetyl cysteine, by liquefying secretions, may facilitate removal of uranium deposits from the lung mucous.
NCD by virtue of it’s affinity for heavy metals should be a good therapy to steadily remove uranium particles from the body. This removal of uranium could assist recovery from uranium induced cancers. Also patients taking NCD on a regular basis may be decreasing their chances of developing uranium induced lung and other malignancies by steadily eliminating uranium from the body so their body uranium levels remain low. Wherever uranium containing bombs and shells are manufactured, tested or stored there are persons being exposed to uranium. Because of the total control the New World order has over the media U.S. citizens are not going to be warned about toxic levels of uranium in the air and accidental contamination problems with uranium may never get reported. This is all part of the massive Satanic program to lower world population.
Sunburn is a mild form of radiation burn. This can be rapidly healed by a nano-particle sized (.25 nm to 6 nm particle size) formulation of colloidal silver. This same formulation of colloidal silver can dissolve skin cancers[3] in 3 days. Mr. Scott Clayton is personally aware of 3 patients with lung cancer who recovered when treated with the same preparation of colloidal silver taken by mouth.
A group of 30 Central American women with 3 different histological types of breast cancer were all treated with a single intravenous infusion of nano-sized hydrosol silver (Argentyn 23). Repeat biopsies of all 30 women at 19 days following the infusion disclosed no evidence of breast cancer[4] in any of the biopsies. Four of the women experienced Herxheimer reactions with fever and transient liver enlargement. Previous study at the University of Wisconsin had suggested that proper dosage of this nano-sized silver preparation has the ability to saturate all tumor cell atoms with silver particles which blocks the glucose consumption tumor cells[5] need to stay alive.
What Doses Of NCD Should Be Used?
Persons who have serious health problems such as malignancies, advanced arteriosclerosis, neurologic diseases (Multiple Sclerosis, Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis, Parkinson’s Disease, Alzheimer’s Disease), severe reflux esophagitis etc. should start with 12 drops of NCD in water four times daily. This high dosage should be continued until improvement is noticed at which time the dosage can be decreased. Persons taking NCD for preventative reasons to improve their general health should start on 9 drops three times daily for the first month. This should remove a significant amount of their toxic burden. The dose can then be reduced to the maintenance level of three drops three times daily.
Testimonials From Zeolite Users
Case 1. A male with a mesothelioma (pleural lining lung malignancy), often related to asbestosis exposure and smoking, had a large tumor mass protruding through the posterior chest wall and another in the upper abdomen the size of a marble when he started to take NCD. After a month of therapy both masses were gone. He remains well.
Case 2. A male with severe itching from non-healing skin lesions on the legs of many years duration started NCD therapy. Within a week he notice nearly complete healing of the skin lesions and disappearance of metal allergy when wearing watches.
Case 3. A veteran who had 30 years of mental cloudiness since exposure to Agent Orange in Viet Nam began zeolite. The next morning he experienced mental clarity for the first time in 30 years. Four days later he became aware of a horrible taste in his mouth. This was associated with disappearance of a mouth tumor of 4 years duration. 37 years earlier he had a brown recluse spider bite between his toes. Subsequent to the spider bite a non-healing ulcer could be seen at the site of the spider bite. After four days of zeolite the foot started to itch and the ulcer was gone.
Case 4. A male with a painful goose egg sized buttock mass was scheduled for surgery. In one week of zeolite therapy the mass became so small he cancelled the surgery.
Case 5. A female with a painful right fibrocystic breast mass started taking zeolite. Three weeks later she was aware of decreased beast pain. Her physician was unable to identify the previously biopsied right breast mass.
Case 6. A 23 year old female with chronic genital warts had failed to benefit from burning and topical therapy. The genital warts disappeared in 7 days when zeolite was started.
Case 7. A male had severe heartburn which frequently awakened him from sleep. He had used Tums daily for 27 years. After starting zeolite therapy he realized he had taken no Tums for a week as his symptoms were gone.
Case 8. A female had many years of severe heartburn. She often experienced heartburn which would awaken her from sleep. There was associated with marked shortness of breath and regurgitation of ingested food. She was using 4 to 6 antacid tablets hourly. When she started NCD she began to have much less symptoms. Stopping therapy for a week led to a relapse so she is still taking 19 drops of NCD three times daily.
Case 9. This 33 year old female had joint pains, fatigue, exhaustion and depression diagnosed as fibromyalgia. Massage, acupuncture, herbs, acupressure and glucosamine had failed to help. Zeolite therapy led to complete resolution of her symptoms.

NATURAL CELLULAR DEFENSE [ZEOLITE]
By Dr. Jim Howenstine, MD
The pharmaceutical industry earns one trillion dollars each year from the sale of chemotherapy drugs. If anyone thinks that this industry will soon be bringing forth a new therapy that will cure cancer they may wish to revaluate this thinking. These people are brilliant at controlling the media and encouraging the public that “the cure is just around the corner.” If they were to cure cancer it would be the biggest mistake they have ever made and they are not accustomed to making mistakes.
One of the key factors in successful therapy of cancer is removal of toxic metals (mercury, arsenic, lead, cadmium, aluminum, iron, uranium etc.) from the body.
Dr. Josef Issel of Germany had great success treating cancer with fever, organic raw food, enzymes and immune stimulating methods. In his office a biologic dentist removed metal amalgams (mercury) and mercury dental deposits from these patients. His methods were so successful he earned a three year stay in a German prison in the site reserved for convicted murderers.
In Dr. Thomas Rau’s Paracelsus Clinic in Switzerland most patients seen are terminally ill from malignancies that have failed chemotherapy and radiation. Fifty percent of patients with stage 4 (advanced) cancer recover. Their therapeutic program consists of:
• Opening up missing tooth sites to remove hidden mercury deposits
• Removal of all root canal teeth
• Careful removal of all mercury fillings
• Detoxify the patient from mercury and other harmful substances
Obviously toxic metals play a major role in causing cancer and their removal can greatly assist recovery. The substance zeolite (Natural Cellular Defense) acts primarily by removing toxic metals from the body.
Zeolites are minerals formed when molten lava contacts water from lakes or ocean. A specific member of the zeolite family of minerals called “clinoptilolite” has a unique honeycomb like structure which has the ability to trap and bind toxins, heavy metals, viral particles, and other impurities so these substances can be removed from the body. The clinoptilolite type of zeolite can be activated by a process which removes naturally occurring toxins. The end product results in a 100 % natural completely non-toxic liquid that is safe for human consumption (FDA rating G.R.A.S. Generally Recognized As Safe). In a liquid form carried by the blood stream zeolites are believed to pass to all parts of the body.
The clinoptilolite form of zeolite has been used for more than 800 years in traditional medicine to improve general health in India, China, Russia and nearly every part of Asia. In the United States this has been used in water filtration, air purification, animal feed and fertilizers to keep crops healthy.
Zeolites are negatively charged which is not common among minerals. This negative charge facilitates the migration of positively charged toxic minerals into the zeolite cages and onto the surfaces of zeolite where these substances can be transported for elimination in stools and urine. There is a preferential order of zeolite attraction to minerals .of heavier weight before proceeding to lighter minerals. This is manifested by trapping of mercury, uranium, arsenic, and cadmium before lighter minerals are captured (magnesium, calcium, lead). Zeolites can be considered molecular sieves and filtering agents who are able to trap positively charged atoms, ions, and compounds for removal from the body.
What Can Zeolite (Natural Cellular Defense) Accomplish?
• Remove Toxic Heavy Metals (uranium, aluminum, lead, mercury, arsenic, cadmium etc). This improves enzyme function.
• Trap and remove viral particles from the body
• Improve immune function so colds and influenza are less likely to occur
• Improve pH levels so infectious organisms have a less favorable site to survive
• Trap protons in the digestive tract making acid reflux less troublesome
• Improve nutrient absorption
• Removal of toxins and chemicals improves immune function
• Trapping allergens in blood and digestive tract decreases symptoms from inhaled and swallowed antigens
• Absorptive action in the intestines may stop diarrhea
• Can be of great value in life threatening and chronic disease states.
Is Zeolite A Chelating Substance?
Zeolite has a great affinity for heavier metals such as mercury, uranium, arsenic, cadmium, aluminum and a lesser affinity for metals of lower weight (lead, calcium, magnesium). In two published studies involving goats, sheep, and cows half the animals received zeolite along with food and vitamins and the others received the same therapy but no zeolite. The animals receiving the zeolite had better nutritional status and better mineral content in their bodies than the animals not taking zeolite. The zeolite animals lost toxic metals and had better levels of calcium and magnesium than the animals not taking zeolite. Zeolite is an important chelating agent which appears to bind more metals than standard EDTA used in chelation.
What Can NCD Do In Allergic Diseases (Migraine Headaches, Asthma)?
Patients with migraine headaches frequently are aware that certain foods will trigger headache attacks (red wine, preserved meats treated with nitrites and nitrates such as sausages, hot dogs, salami, caffeine, chocolate, some dairy products{aromatic cheeses} etc.). NCD can remove some of these triggers for migraine attacks by physically absorbing the offending substances in the intestines.
Asthmatic patients are exposed to pollen, dust, molds, and air polluted by chemicals and smog all of which may initiate bronchospasm (wheezing). Often the offending substances are heavily charged making them susceptible to removal by NCD before they cause asthma attacks. Many persons with allergic disorders have noticed a decrease in symptoms after starting NCD therapy.
Use Of NCD In Hyperacidity And Acid Reflux States
The ability of zeolite to bind gastric acid can be dramatically effective in some individuals suffering from painful reflux of gastric acid onto the esophagus . Other persons with indigestion related to gastric acid may also obtain relief.
Possible Benefits From NCD In Arteriosclerosis
There are several important concepts regarding the initiation of arteriosclerosis. One of these is that arteriosclerosis results from the infiltration of the endothelial lining of the arteries with toxic heavy metals. The inner lining of the artery is the site where the important vasodilator substance nitric acid is created.
The endothelium also produces prostacyclin which decreases clotting of blood and causes dilating of arteries. A third important endothelial substance is heparin, a potent substance that prevents clots from forming. Excessive deposition of heavy metals in the endothelium diminishes the endothelium’s ability to produce valuable nitric oxide, prostacyclin and heparin. Removal of these toxic metals restores the endothelium’s ability to produce these vital substances which stops and may even reverse arteriosclerosis.
Inflammatory reactions in the body (often related to infections such as gingivitis, pneumonia, viral infections etc.) can be a stimulus for arteriosclerotic plaques to suddenly develop. Bacteria and viruses have been transported from these inflammatory sites to the endothelial lining of arteries. .Careful studies of persons suffering strokes and heart attacks has revealed that up to 25 or 30 % of these persons have a history of an infectious disease in the several days preceding the vascular event.
Experts in the field of gum disease have warned that there is mountain of evidence that there is an unusually high rate of gingivitis in persons developing heart attacks and strokes. Therapy that heals gingivitis (Oral Guard) could protect many patients from having heart attacks and strokes.
Signs of inflammation such as elevated levels of CRP and sedimentation rates are a valuable clue that artery narrowing and related vascular occlusion is a strong possibility. The body reacts to infectious processes by walling off the area of infection. The blood in these sites becomes sludgy with poor blood flow. Plaque formation becomes accelerated in these sites of impaired oxygen delivery. Resolving these abnormal indicators of infection with agents like cucurmin is helping many patients escape vascular accidents.
Dr. Linus Pauley pointed out that Vitamin C and lysine could correct the collagen deficiency seen in arteriosclerosis with healing of narrowed arteries. This information was nearly completely ignored by conventional medicine. Coronary by-pass surgery, and the placing of stents and angioplastic opening of narrowed arteries are big business for the medical community. The fact that surgical procedures are being performed for what is a degenerative inflammatory disorder of arteries has not slowed the wave of surgery. Curative therapy for arteriosclerosis needs to reverse the abnormal events in the lining of the arteries and eliminate the infections that initiate vascular occlusions.
Homocysteine elevation, increased clotting factors (fibrinogen, platelets, lipoprotein (a) excess) and meals prepared with synthetic transfats all contribute to arteriosclerosis as does cholesterol elevation in a minor way.
Heavy metals inhibit both enzyme function and protein performance. Zinc finger proteins[1] are stabilized by the presence of a zinc atom in the middle of the protein. When this zinc atom is missing the protein will not work. These zinc finger proteins are necessary for cellular division. This is especially important for the immune system which requires extra cells when faced with a viral or bacterial infection. Supplemental zinc during infections normally helps the body create more immune cells. The zinc may also be displaced by heavy metals such as mercury and arsenic. Again the protein fails to function because of displaced zinc. Removing heavy metals from the body permits correct placement of zinc to occur with improved immune function and restored enzyme function resulting.
Adenosine triphosphate ATP is the prime energy source for the body. ATP needs a magnesium ion to be stabilized. Active ATP is called Magnesium ATP. Persons with mercury poisoning have the magnesium displaced by the excessive mercury levels. In this state of absent magnesium the body has less energy production and fatigue and weakness are common symptoms. When the mercury is removed energy output returns to normal. Many persons taking NCD have noticed that they have more energy within a few weeks of starting this therapy.
Because the affinity of zeolite for removal of heavy metals like arsenic, cadmium, mercury and uranium is greater than for lighter metals like calcium it tends to only remove calcium when there are no or few heavier metals to absorb to. This results in slow removal of the calcium found in arteriosclerotic plaques. The vitamin K2 would probably be more rapid in removing calcium from plaques and heel spurs than zeolite.
NCD helps the body improve artery function by eliminating toxic metals from the body, improving immune system function, improving pH levels, increasing oxygen levels in tissues and by improving enzyme function.
What Is Happening When Toxic Metals Leave The Body?
When zeolite from NCD captures toxic metals the zeolite combined with metals is excreted in urine and also becomes part of fecal waste. Approximately 60 % of zeolite leaves the body in urine and 40 % in fecal waste. One hundred percent[2] of zeolite is eliminated from the body within a 4 to 7 hour time frame. Because of this rapid elimination taking very large doses of NCD accomplishes nothing not achieved with conventional dosage.
When meat is cooked, particularly if burned, nitrosamines form. The nitrosamines have been implicated in causing colon cancer. An important action of zeolite is to trap and remove dangerous nitrosamines from the intestines.
As the mercury, lead, cadmium, arsenic, uranium etc. leave the body the blood levels of these substances decline. When this occurs there is now more mercury, cadmium, lead etc in the bones and other tissues than in the blood. This produces an osmotic effect which leads to slow steady migration of metals out of bones and tissues into the blood and then out of the body.
Lead has very important health ramifications. There is no amount of lead that is safe for the human body. Elevations of lead levels in humans are strongly correlated with the development of hypertension. When the lead is removed from the body the blood pressure returns to normal. Lead excess is also an important cause for cataract formation. Children with elevated levels of lead have a high incidence of poor academic performance, increased use of drugs and more anti-social behavior.
Lead is stored in bones. Modern man has 1000 times more lead in his bones than men living 400 years ago. Effective oral chelation therapy removes lead but may take 10 to 15 years to complete it’s removal from bone. An oral chelating therapy such as Essential Daily Defense removes lead by virtue of the presence of garlic powder.
An interesting and perhaps significant observation seen in persons taking zeolite is that some persons lose weight.[3] One theory proposed to explain this is that these toxic metals are so dangerous to the body they get surrounded by fat tissue to decrease their toxic effects. When NCD has led to loss of toxic metals the fat tissue may be metabolized away as these stored metals also get eliminated from the body.
How Does NCD Affect pH Values In The Body?
Normal body pH is slightly alkaline at 7.4. When the body pH falls to consistently low values 5 chronic degenerative diseases such as cancer, serious infections and arteriosclerosis may appear. Oxygen levels correlate with pH levels so acidic pH levels are associated with low oxygen levels in tissues. Hydrogen ions are small so they do not get trapped in zeolite. However, their acidic effect is balanced by the presence of alkaline zeolite leading to a neutral more healthy pH where disease has a harder time flourishing. Positively charged protons in the vicinity of zeolite become attracted into the cage and their disappearance raises local pH values to a safer level. When a cage with protons is transported to an area where there are few protons (not acidic).the protons will migrate back out of the cage. Thus the pH effects are localized[4] not systemic. For part two click below.
What Effect Does Zeolite Have On Autoimmune Diseases?
Auto-immune illnesses can be associated with an underactive immune system or an overactive immune system. Examples of an underactive immune function would include cancer and HIV disease. In both these conditions the underactive immune system fails to detect and kill cancer cells or fight off infections as would normally occur. One of the conditions with an overactive immune system would be rheumatoid arthritis In this disease the immune system attacks the membranes in the joints in an uncontrolled manner .resulting in progressive destruction of joints. NCD has a modulating effect on immune diseases which stimulates the immune system to perform more effectively in an underactive disorder and slows down the activity of the immune system in diseases where the immune system is operating excessively.

The use of NCD with other detoxifying substances, supplements and minerals is actually desirable.[1] Anything that improves the immune defense system such as selenium, Burbur, N-Acetyl Cysteine etc. appears to complement the effects of NCD.
What Health Problems Are Not Benefited By NCD?
Xenoestrogens from exposure to pesticides, herbicides, plastics and petrochemicals are too large or fail to exhibit a chemical charge making them fail to be attracted by zeolite. This results in no excretion upon exposure to NCD. However, there may be indirect benefits from use of NCD in persons exposed to xenoestrogens because NCD does have beneficial effects on glucuronidation which is an important liver detoxification pathway. This could improve liver performance in these patients.

Mr. Scott Clayton is personally aware of 3 patients with lung cancer who recovered when treated with the same preparation of colloidal silver taken by mouth.
A group of 30 Central American women with 3 different histological types of breast cancer were all treated with a single intravenous infusion of nano-sized hydrosol silver (Argentyn 23). Repeat biopsies of all 30 women at 19 days following the infusion disclosed no evidence of breast cancer[4] in any of the biopsies. Four of the women experienced Herxheimer reactions with fever and transient liver enlargement. Previous study at the University of Wisconsin had suggested that proper dosage of this nano-sized silver preparation has the ability to saturate all tumor cell atoms with silver particles which blocks the glucose consumption tumor cells[5] need to stay alive.
What Doses Of NCD Should Be Used?
Persons who have serious health problems such as malignancies, advanced arteriosclerosis, neurologic diseases (Multiple Sclerosis, Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis, Parkinson’s Disease, Alzheimer’s Disease), severe reflux esophagitis etc. should start with 12 drops of NCD in water four times daily. This high dosage should be continued until improvement is noticed at which time the dosage can be decreased. Persons taking NCD for preventative reasons to improve their general health should start on 9 drops three times daily for the first month. This should remove a significant amount of their toxic burden. The dose can then be reduced to the maintenance level of three drops three times daily.
Testimonials From Zeolite Users
Case 1. A male with a mesothelioma (pleural lining lung malignancy), often related to asbestosis exposure and smoking, had a large tumor mass protruding through the posterior chest wall and another in the upper abdomen the size of a marble when he started to take NCD. After a month of therapy both masses were gone. He remains well.
Case 2. A male with severe itching from non-healing skin lesions on the legs of many years duration started NCD therapy. Within a week he notice nearly complete healing of the skin lesions and disappearance of metal allergy when wearing watches.
Case 3. A veteran who had 30 years of mental cloudiness since exposure to Agent Orange in Viet Nam began zeolite. The next morning he experienced mental clarity for the first time in 30 years. Four days later he became aware of a horrible taste in his mouth. This was associated with disappearance of a mouth tumor of 4 years duration. 37 years earlier he had a brown recluse spider bite between his toes. Subsequent to the spider bite a non-healing ulcer could be seen at the site of the spider bite. After four days of zeolite the foot started to itch and the ulcer was gone.
Case 4. A male with a painful goose egg sized buttock mass was scheduled for surgery. In one week of zeolite therapy the mass became so small he cancelled the surgery.
Case 5. A female with a painful right fibrocystic breast mass started taking zeolite. Three weeks later she was aware of decreased beast pain. Her physician was unable to identify the previously biopsied right breast mass.
Case 6. A 23 year old female with chronic genital warts had failed to benefit from burning and topical therapy. The genital warts disappeared in 7 days when zeolite was started.
Case 7. A male had severe heartburn which frequently awakened him from sleep. He had used Tums daily for 27 years. After starting zeolite therapy he realized he had taken no Tums for a week as his symptoms were gone.
Case 8. A female had many years of severe heartburn. She often experienced heartburn which would awaken her from sleep. There was associated with marked shortness of breath and regurgitation of ingested food. She was using 4 to 6 antacid tablets hourly. When she started NCD she began to have much less symptoms. Stopping therapy for a week led to a relapse so she is still taking 19 drops of NCD three times daily.
Case 9. This 33 year old female had joint pains, fatigue, exhaustion and depression diagnosed as fibromyalgia. Massage, acupuncture, herbs, acupressure and glucosamine had failed to help. Zeolite therapy led to complete resolution of her symptoms.

HEAVY METALS AND ITS RELATION TO CHILDHOOD DISORDERS: Is Your Toddler Toxic? © Paula Rothstein
It is devastating enough to consider the "body burden" being carried by adults in this increasingly polluted world but to even consider that your child is carrying a substantially heavier load of toxins than yourself is difficult to acknowledge. Belief would require action.
Although there have been products capable of removing heavy metals from the body in the past, there was always the possibility of doing damage to the kidneys in the process and certainly not safe for small children. Additionally, lighter metals such as essential minerals would be removed as well, requiring the individual to over-compensate with increased supplementation, thus success was difficult to measure. However, Natural Cellular Defense - the liquid zeolite product introduced to the market by the Company of Waiora in November 2005 - offers a very effective "capture and excrete" system that never causes damage to the liver and kidneys and has no affinity whatsoever for the lighter, essential minerals. My three year old son has been using this product since he was 18 months old. It is completely safe. However, you do need to make sure the individual stays well hydrated.
WHY CHILDREN ARE AT A GREATER RISK FOR TOXIC OVERLOAD.
It is easy enough to understand that a body, substantially smaller than our own, would inevitably react more strongly to the same amount of toxins. Coupled with rapid development, an infant or child is extremely vulnerable to environmental interference and their normal behavioral patterns put them at a higher risk. During the first months and years of life, children’s organs are developing rapidly, making them more prone to functional damage. The nervous system continues to develop throughout childhood and therefore is especially vulnerable to toxic chemicals in their personal environment as well as food and water. And just like their young bodies more readily absorb nutrients, they also readily absorb toxins.
In that first year of life, a child’s ability to metabolize, detoxify, and excrete toxins differs substantially from that of an adult. Children also may be more susceptible to some toxins because their liver and kidneys are not fully mature and cannot detoxify and excrete harmful substances as readily as adults.
THE DANGERS OF LEAD POISONING
We all remember the Mad Hatter from the story "Alice in Wonderland". But what most of you may not know is that the Mad Hatter is based on a true story involving the hat makers in eighteenth century London who went mad from working with lead while making their hats. We have known for a very long time that lead is dangerous. Children in particular are susceptible to lead poisoning because it can accumulate in their nervous system as their bodies grow and develop. Although death by lead poisoning is uncommon, dangerous levels of lead in children may cause serious health problems, including lowered intelligence and poor school performance.
According to the most recent CDC estimates, more than 400,000 children ages 1 to 5 years living in the United States have levels of lead in their bodies high enough to cause concern. When lead was used in our gasoline, it is estimated that over 68 million children were exposed to toxic levels of lead. Its toxic legacy continues to affect us even today.
THE DANGERS OF VACCINES.
Many vaccines today, including Whooping Cough, Diptheria, MMR, and to an even larger degree Hepatitis B - the latter being given to infants in the first 12-24 hours of their life - contain mercury in amounts far in excess of those cited as dangerous by the EPA as stated in 1998. The Hepatitis vaccine has been shown to cause serious neurological and ophthalmologic side effects. It is my opinion that benefits of vaccines are seriously undermined by their substantial risks.
Reputable health organizations have requested single dose vaccines so that mercury would not be necessary, however, for reasons of cost to the pharmaceutical drug companies the practice of doling out mercury based vaccines to newborns continues. The practice is unconscionable. Only vaccines given intravenously or orally are considered safe. All vaccines carry a slew of toxins even if it is not as obvious as mercury based Thimeresol and parents should weigh the potential for risk very heavily before deciding whether or not to go along with the vaccination program.
The question of vaccine-related trauma remains a very controversial subject for there are two potentially conflicting values; the desire to eliminate infectious disease and the desire of a parent to protect their child. Unfortunately, few studies of the long term risks of vaccines exist and parents are left to make hard decisions in an antagonistic medical climate. I have written more extensively on this subject in a previous post.
MERCURY AND ITS AFFECT ON CHILDREN.
Mercury is a potent neurotoxin which is highly damaging to the brain and nervous system. Exposure can hurt the child’s ability to concentrate; it can affect their language skills, socialization skills, hand to eye coordination and even their vision. Exposure to low levels of mercury can permanently damage the brain and nervous system and cause behavioral changes. You should also note that mercury is a persistent bioaccumulative neurotoxin which means it does not break down naturally. Although the government has been actively trying to prevent studies that link Thimerosal used in vaccines to the increased incidences of autism, the connection is too strong to deny any more.
The number of cases involving childhood disorders such as autism, ADDHD, and certain types of cancers, have been rising steadily and these conditions have all been linked to high levels of toxicity. This is not to discount the genetic predisposition for these conditions but rather to make you aware that it is believed early toxic overload plays a part in triggering this condition.
TOXICITY AND ITS AFFECT ON FETAL DEVELOPMENT.
The National Academy of Sciences in July of 2000 filed a report establishing the risk of mercury exposure to fetal development is so great that at least 60,000 newborns each year could be at risk for learning and developmental problems from mercury exposure. In fact, one in 12 women of childbearing age in the U.S. have more mercury in the body than the Environmental Protection Agency considers safe for a fetus’s development, according to the latest data from the Center for Disease Control.
In a study spearheaded by the Environmental Working Group (EWG) in collaboration with Commonweal, researchers at two major laboratories found an average of 200 industrial chemicals and pollutants in umbilical cord blood from 10 babies born in August and September of 2004 in U.S. hospitals. Tests revealed a total of 287 chemicals in the group. The umbilical cord blood of these 10 children, collected by Red Cross after the cord was cut, harbored pesticides, consumer product ingredients, and wastes from burning coal, gasoline, and garbage. Continue here to read the full report.
TOXICITY TEST RESULTS OF THREE CHILDREN.
The following test results are provided as a way of demonstrating that your child could indeed have high levels of toxicity and the effectiveness of Natural Cellular Defense. I encourage you to visit
This information was provided to me by an acquaintance who became concerned that his children suffered from higher than normal toxicity levels. To put the numbers in perspective, this family consumes organic food and the children were never vaccinated. The test procedure was performed immunoassay. The toxicity level was determined by a formula measuring metals in circulation (saliva), and being eliminated (urine).
Children’s ages are 7, 9 and 12 . Summary as follows:

FINDING A WORKABLE SOLUTION.
Although the statistics on childhood toxicity on the surface appear daunting and the need to get a handle on our exposure to toxic chemicals urgent, we should remember that for every problem there is a solution. Without a doubt our industrial nation needs to take responsibility for their actions and to that end, governmental agencies need to do a better job at enforcing this responsibility. We need to carefully review the chemicals being used in vaccinations to determine their safety and consider whether or not we need so many vaccinations because each one carries a risk. Parents should do their best to limit exposure to chemicals in their home. Additionally, it is increasingly important for women wishing to become pregnant to engage in a detoxification program before trying to conceive and to that end, Natural Cellular Defense could be of great assistance. Most importantly, we must help our children already damaged by pollutants and chemicals by providing them with a serious and workable detoxification program. Natural Cellular Defense is a product that offers one very important and viable solution to toxic overload for children as well as adults.

ARRESTING TOXINS: The Capture and Removal of Disease Causing Heavy Metals
© Paula Rothstein
More than a decade of research has created a liquid zeolite product composed of a water-soluble mineral called Natural Cellular Defense (NCD). NCD is an all natural liquid supplement formulated using patented zeolite technology. NCD deals with the core problem of ill health by removing disease causing heavy metals and toxins. By the removal of heavy metals and toxins, balancing pH levels, and interfering with viral particle assembly, it will become easier for the body to deal with most of the underlying causes of chronic illness. NCD addresses the mechanism by which the body breaks down in the first place.
Those practicing natural medicine today are in agreement that the majority of illnesses are a result of the build-up of toxins in the body. This suggests that detoxification, balancing of pH levels, and management of a healthy immune system are the hallmarks of successful healing.
Detoxification is necessary for you to regain your health and to overcome or prevent disease relating to environmental factors. However, this is only half the solution. Rebuilding a weakened system is the other half. It requires the correct nutrients, minerals, foods and supplements. NCD detoxifies the body by eliminating mercury, lead and other toxins from the body.
The phrase “body burden” has been used by scientists to describe the heavy load of chemicals that can be found in the average person – the result of lifelong exposure to industrial chemicals. Before we are even born, synthetic chemicals and heavy metals of all kinds begin building up in our bodies as passed on by the mother through the placenta.
In a study led by Mount Sinai School of Medicine in New York, in collaboration with the Environmental Working Group and Commonweal, researchers at two major laboratories conducted a study on nine volunteers (a group consisting of individuals who were neither exposed to chemicals in their work environment nor lived near an industrial facility). The results were quite remarkable. They discovered an average of 91 industrial compounds, pollutants, and other chemicals in their blood and urine and a total of 167 chemicals. Of the 167 chemicals found, 76 cause cancer in humans or animals, 94 are toxic to the brain and nervous system, and 79 cause birth defects or abnormal development.
While it is difficult to measure a precise picture of human contamination because chemical companies are not required to report to the EPA how their compounds are used nor are they responsible for monitoring where their products end up in the environment, the above sited study does give us much reason to be concerned and certainly would explain why such a high percentage of the public are suffering today from chronic diseases. The chemicals we cannot process end up accumulating in our bodies and this growing body burden works to poison our tissues and exacerbate, as well as cause, disease.
NCD’s method of chelating heavy metals and toxins from the body is quite remarkable. Countless minuscule molecular cages carrying a negative charge begin circulating throughout your body with the ability to capture positively charged molecular toxins such as heavy metals, radioactive ions, viral particles and other damaging molecules before safely escorting them out of your system, so that your toxic load is substantially reduced. These tiny cages also, by trapping excess protons, help alkalize our bodies, while raising immunity and disease-resistance in the process.
NCD will also remove nitrosamines which result from ingestion of meat, burned and fried foods. For those on kidney dialysis there may be an accumulation of aluminum silicate. Since liquid zeolite cannot be broken down by liver enzymes, it will chelate aluminum as well. Because it chelates aluminum, there may be implications for those with Alzheimers and Autism.
Natural Cellular Defense is based on extensive research being conducted by reputable and innovative scientists generally associated with pharmaceutical medicine. The patented process by which NCD is manufactured and activated was developed by research biochemist Harvey Kaufman who spent forty years in its development and application.
The patented technology of NCD uses a unique manufacturing process that not only removes all impurities from the starting zeolite mineral but in effect activates the free-floating cages and sequesters these metals and toxins within its cage-like structure and safely removes them from the body in a 5 to 7 hour period.
It is also believed that NCD may also stimulate gene p21 uptake in cancer cells. The p21 gene promotes aging by increasing the progression of cellular division and cellular death. In fact, the p21 gene may be the master gene that contributes to the development of cancer, hardening of the arteries, arthritis, Alzheimer's, and other diseases associated with aging. As a master gene, p21 may be of fundamental importance in the function of the immune system. A protein called CD45, residing on the surface of red and white blood cells, halts the body’s immune response to foreign entities such as viruses. Such a signal is necessary to prevent the immune system from continuing long after the invading organism has been eliminated. Failure of the immune system to down regulate results in a number of diseases such as diabetes, multiple sclerosis, heart disease, and perhaps cancer. In summary, liquid zeolite may not only stimulate the immune system, but deal with genetic components which promote cancerous cellular growth.
Although NCD is a highly effective detoxifying agent, there are many reports surfacing as to this product being used by holistic practitioners in conjunction with other natural therapies used to repair the damage caused by the toxins. At Medicine Free Living, we believe the most compelling combination to be liquid zeolite and glyconutrients. Glyconutrients are the eight essential sugars responsible for all cell to cell communication and repair. Especially if you are fighting a serious disease there is growing evidence to support the use of liquid zeolite and glyconutrients as an adjuvant therapy to any approach recommended by your treating physician.
