Zeolite is one of the most fascinating and powerful supplements on the market today. I truly believe in the healing potential of this amazing product when used properly. This article is designed to empower you with knowledge on how to effectively use zeolite supplements to help you and your family reach the next level in your healing journey. Let's get started.
Zeolite is a naturally occurring mineral that contains a very strong “cage-like” structure and negative charge. There are many types of naturally occurring zeolites. The zeolite that is being discussed in this article is called clinoptilolite, which is the form that has been most studied for human consumption.
How Does Zeolite Work?
Zeolite is an alkaline mineral that is very porous and is one of the very few minerals that is negatively charged by nature. Since most toxic elements such as mercury, lead and cadmium are positively charged, zeolite is pulled to these elements, like a magnet, and sucks them up into its structure. These dangerous substances become trapped in zeolite’s cage structure, and are then safely and gently carried out of the body.
"I hadn't worked for two years from being ill and having no energy. There was a point where my legs hurt so bad that I couldn't get out of bed. My vitamins and minerals were super low and I was taking supplements that weren't absorbing. I also wasn't able to lose weight. After starting Zeocharge the weight started coming off- I lost 20 pounds in the last 6 months. I have more energy now and have been able to return to work for the first time in two years. I have been taking 2 tablespoons per day in the morning." -Roxann
What Does Zeolite Bind to?
Zeolite has a strong negative charge and thus is attracted to positively charged molecules. Since most of the things that don't belong in our bodies are positively charged, zeolite can be an effective detox method for a number of toxic elements that are draining our health. Here are a few of the things zeolite binds to:
Heavy Metals- Heavy metals are toxic metals that accumulate in our bodies over time and put an enormous burden on our immune and nervous systems, and make our bodies work overtime to stay healthy. Eventually our bodies lose the ability to keep up with the excess demand and symptoms such as chronic fatigue, brain fog, irritability, and a host of other symptoms and conditions can manifest. Zeolite can target hidden metals such as lead, cadmium, and arsenic among other in your body and trap them in its cage-like structure for safe removal. Once the heavy metal burden is lifted your body can start functionally at its peak potential again.
Environmental Toxicants- In the 21st century we face an unprecedented number of toxic stressors in our daily lives. From the air you breathe, to the food you eat - toxins are everywhere. Over time these toxins accumulate in your body wreaking havoc on your health. Fatigue, brain fog, weight gain, a weakened immune system, and countless health issues are common side effects when these toxins build up. Since these toxins have a positive charge most of them will fall victim to zeolites strong binding capacity for safe removal from the body.
Mycotoxins- Mold toxicity is increasingly becoming recognized as a serious problem and a player in a number of serious chronic conditions. Exposure to mold often results in an elevated amounts of mycotoxins being exposed to the immune system which can result in an inflammatory response and a number of undesirable symptoms. Zeolite can help bind to these mycotoxins and escort them out of the body before the immune system gets a chance to mount an attack which results in a stressful experience on your body.
Radioactive Materials- After being exposed to ionizing radiation, radioactive materials are left in your body and will stick around for years if you don't take action to remove them. Chances are you've got a fair amount of radioactive materials hanging around in your body which have accumulated over the years from CT scans, Mammograms, X-Rays, medical radiation procedures, nuclear fallout, etc. Zeolite is a fantastic tool to help remove leftover radiation from your body.
Microbial Pathogens- Zeolite may assist in the removal or reduction of a number of pathogenic microbes including Candida and a host of viruses. Zeolite has antiviral properties due to its potential ability to absorb viral particles. A study conducted to evaluate the antiviral properties of micronized clinoptilolite zeolite (what we use in ZeoCharge™) showed promise that zeolite can be used to inhibit viral replication. The study stated that the antiviral effect of the zeolite seems to be non-specific and is more likely based on the incorporation of viral particles into pores of zeolite aggregates than ion exchange properties of clinoptilolite. This means that zeolite may be effective against a whole host of viruses, not just the viruses used in the study. It is interesting to note that the low dose of zeolite in the study "induced a very low antiviral effect or the antiviral was not observed at all" but the high dose "induced a significant inhibitory effect upon viral proliferation." This supports the views I have shared on previous blog posts and will cover later on this page about the importance of proper zeolite dosing.
Microbial Toxins- When microbes get out of balance in your body some of them start releasing toxic elements as waste products resulting in a constant supply of inflammation and irritation. These microbes turn in to little “toxin factories” that are constantly producing biotoxins that are putting extra stress on your system and often resulting in uncomfortable symptoms. These toxins make their way to the bloodstream where the immune system mounts an attack and inflammation occurs as a result. Zeolite helps bind many of these biotoxins and safely removes them from the body.

Zeolite and Your Immune System
An effective two-step approach to optimizing the immune system is one: remove immune-drainers, and two: add immune boosters. Without removing toxic elements that are compromising immune function step two is very limited. Metals, environmental toxicants, molds, radioactive materials, and pathogenic microbes are a few of the immune-draining toxic elements that many of us have picked up over the years and are harboring in our bodies. Zeolite can absorb many of these toxic elements and remove them from your body, freeing your immune system to focus its energy on other issues such as viral invaders.
Zeolite vs Activated Charcoal and Bentonite Clay
There are a number of great natural binders out there including activated charcoal and bentonite clay. These are fantastic products and can be very helpful in a detox protocol. But binders such as charcoal and bentonite clay don't have the same capabilities as zeolite clay. Charcoal and bentonite are great at mopping up toxins but they don't have the binding capacity of a high-quality zeolite powder. Bentonite clay and charcoal may be used in conjunction with zeolite in a detox protocol but it's my opinion that zeolite should be included and considered the primary agent for a systemic detox. Another key to consider when using most binders is that they aren't selective like zeolite so they bind to everything with a positive charge including minerals. Zeolite is a selective binder that only goes after toxic metals so you don't have to worry about it depleting your body of essential minerals.
What About Particle Size?
Zeolite starts as a large mineral that is then processed into smaller particles. We recommend zeolite particles in the range of 0.5–8 microns. We have found that zeolite products within this range are the most widely studied and most effective. With particle sizes over 8 microns, the zeolite becomes quite grainy and has a texture similar to sand. A range of particle sizes from 0.5 to 8 microns seems to work great, and that is what is in Zeocharge. If the particle size is larger, the product becomes less effective and more unpleasant to consume.
We don’t recommend nano zeolite due to lack of research and safety concerns. We don’t recommend liquid zeolite products or sprays due to the extremely low dose that is present in these products. Liquid zeolite products generally have around 1 milligram of zeolite per serving (many have 300 micrograms, which is even less). Zeocharge has 5,000 milligrams per scoop. Some people start with up to 6 scoops of Zeocharge per day, which is 100,000× the dose of many liquid zeolite products containing only 300 micrograms per serving. Some people think that sprays and low-dose zeolite are safer than high (or what I would consider normal) doses of zeolite, but the opposite is true.
Is Zeolite Safe?
Yes, absolutely...well at least the high-quality clinoptilolite zeolite we utilize in ZeoCharge™. I can't speak to the safety of other zeolite products on the market. Our zeolite goes through a proprietary cleaning process to remove any toxic elements or contamination and is micronized for human consumption. It is noteworthy that there are many types of zeolite, but we are only talking about clinoptilolite zeolite here, which is the primary type of zeolite that is used in supplements. Zeolite is a natural mineral and has a variety of elements in it. It is important to note that the structure of clinoptilolite zeolite does not get broken down in the body. Because zeolite does not get broken down in the body, it does not leech any elements that make up the compound. Zeolite is not like an essential mineral that is utilized for cellular functions. It simply passes through your body collecting positively charged toxic elements and then is excreted. Therefore you cannot overdose on zeolite and you cannot poison yourself with zeolite as long as you are using a clean zeolite designed for human consumption. Warning- This is only true for purified clinoptilolite zeolite. Other forms of zeolite have not been studied for human health and I don't recommend consuming them.
"I wanted to tell you how much I LOVE this product and how life changing it has been for me. I have been telling everyone I know about it. I have suffered from heavy metals and Lyme for the past 5 years. I wish I knew about this in the beginning, I could have saved myself so much pain and suffering. My biggest pains recently were joint pain, chronic aches, vertigo, exhaustion, brain fog and extreme constipation. I have been on this journey for a long time and these are the remaining symptoms. I am super active and eat healthy most of the time, I feel like I did everything I could to get to where I am at, but I feel like ZeoCharge has given me my health back and this is only the beginning." -Steph
Zeolite: The Dosing Paradox
When first getting started with zeolite, I observed that individuals who are considered "sensitive to detox" or other supplements often experience detox reactions (headaches, joint pain, irritability, etc.) when taking liquid zeolite supplements (usually less than 10 mg per dose) or low-dose powdered zeolite supplements. When these same individuals take 10,000 mg–30,000 mg (10–30 g) of ZeoCharge™, they don't experience detox symptoms or the detox symptoms are greatly reduced.
The traditional approach recommended for most detox supplements is to start with a very low dose and work your way up. Starting with a high dose of most detox supplements could result in unwanted detox reactions. This is especially important to consider with more sensitive individuals who often have strong reactions, both positive and negative, when introducing new supplements.
The traditional start-low-and-slow approach to supplements does not apply with zeolite, and in fact, has the opposite effect. The lower the dose, the more likely a detox reaction will occur. In fact, although it seems counterintuitive, we recommend starting with a higher dose and working down to a lower dose. Many people are tricked into thinking that their zeolite product or other detox product is working great because they are experiencing detox reactions. While these reactions are a sign that something is happening, it is indicating a stressful experience. While detox reactions are sometimes unavoidable, they can often be minimized or prevented through a more efficient detox. The ideal situation while detoxing with zeolite is that you either feel better or you don’t feel anything at all.
Many people have tried low-dose zeolite products (liquid and nano zeolite products primarily) and have experienced terrible reactions. Once switching to Zeocharge, they are able to take the product without feeling terrible, and they usually feel great on it! Some people will mix a scoop of Zeocharge with a glass of water and only take a sip just to “test the waters.” This often results in headaches, irritability, and other detox symptoms. When these individuals take the full glass of zeolite the next day, they experience no detox reactions. This has happened many times... In this situation, the detox reactions are not a sign that the product is working great, but rather a sign of an inefficient detox.
Let’s consider the experience of Heidi when starting on ZeoCharge™. Heidi is the “sensitive” type who has a difficult time with detox protocols due to terrible detox reactions that seem to happen every time she tries a new product or protocol. Some practitioners have even told her that she is “too sick to detox.” For years Heidi has been challenged with MCAS, chronic Lyme, mold toxicity, heavy metal toxicity, EMF sensitivity and the list goes on. Heidi has tried almost everything searching for something that will help her get back on track with her health. She hasn’t been able to stick with any of the detox protocols she has started due to the terrible detox reactions that she experiences. She has tried supplements along with technology such as infrared saunas but everything she tries seems to be too much for her body to handle. Heidi heard about ZeoCharge™ and decided to give it a try in hopes that this was the answer that she has been looking for. She was terrified of the recommendation of taking 10 grams so she decided to start with 400mg instead to see how she would react. Bad idea- Heidi ended up bed ridden for 3 days. Terrible weakness and neurological symptoms are a couple of the debilitating symptoms that resulted from this low dose. After receiving a call from Heidi informing me that the ZeoCharge™ did not work but made her worse I asked how much she took. After learning that she only took 400mg (25x less than than the 10 grams/10,000mg I recommended) I encouraged her to immediately take 20 grams. She was uncomfortable with the suggestion considering this was 50x the dose that just made her feel terrible but she decided to give it a try based on my explanation. She called me back about an hour later in a state of unbelief...She felt amazing! She gleefully explained that her fatigue and brain fog started lifting within 10 minutes of the 20 gram dose. Heidi began experimenting with various doses and confirmed that low doses made her feel terrible, while high doses made her feel better than she has felt in years. The higher the dose the better! Heidi is now taking between 10 and 20 grams per day and loving every spoonful of ZeoCharge™!
In order to effectively detox with zeolite you need a relatively high dose, and the more toxic you are the higher dose you need. I recommend starting with between 10-30 grams of ZeoCharge™ per day all taken at once. I recommend staying on the dose of at least 10 grams for 3-6 months before lowering the dose to 5 grams, taken once per day for maintenance.
How Much Zeolite Should I Take?
The dose needed varies from person to person based on a number of factors. Basically, the more complex the health challenge the higher the dose that is needed. For ZeoCharge™ we have found that a starting dose of 10 grams per day (2 scoops), taken all at once, works great. If a headache or other detox symptoms occurs it is recommended to double the dose. The healthier you are, the less you need.
Maintenance dose for a healthy individual: 5 grams (one scoop) per day, taken all at once.
Dose for someone who is not as healthy as they would like to be: 10-30 grams per day, taken all at once.
"Wow you’re onto something with the higher doses! I’ve tried zeolite in the past (two liquids and one powder) and didn’t notice much of anything, but now with a much higher dose I feel it’s working! I noticed detox symptoms with 10g daily but felt much better with 30g daily. It’s been quite a healing journey and I’m grateful to have found your website and videos. I’m learning so much." -Emily
What About Liquid and Nano Zeolite?
First of all just to clarify, liquid zeolite is not actually liquefied zeolite, it's powdered zeolite mixed with water. Most of the liquid zeolite products on the market are simply traditional powdered zeolite mixed with water. So we are essentially talking about the same zeolite being used in the liquids and the powders. There is really no advantage to these liquid zeolite products over a high-quality zeolite powder. These companies often make claims such as their zeolite is "hydrated" which means nothing more than that it is mixed with water. If you take a small amount of powdered zeolite and mix it in water you have just made your own "hydrated" liquid zeolite. Many of these products are marketed as nanosized zeolite although they are the same particle size as many of the powders, because they are just powdered zeolite mixed with water. In some cases however, liquid and spray zeolite supplements exclusively contain nanosized zeolite particles which are smaller than what is used in many powdered zeolite supplements. The idea here is that these nanoparticles can cross the blood brain barrier and provide a full-body detox while many of the powdered zeolite supplements only detox the gut. This is great in theory but in reality these liquid zeolite supplements are limited in what they can detox and pose potential safety concerns due to the low dose in the products and lack of research on nano zeolites. In addition, some of these nano-sized zeolite products are lab-grown or synthetic opposed to naturally occurring zeolite.
We've already covered the importance of proper zeolite dosing. Taking the wrong dose of zeolite can result in negative outcomes. A small dose will result in detox reactions, redistribution of toxins, and an ineffective detox. In order to effectively detox with zeolite you need a relatively high dose, and the more toxic you are the higher dose you need. The therapeutic doses cannot be achieved with liquid zeolite supplements. For most liquid zeolite products you would need to take over 100 bottles per day to get the proper dose (we don't recommend trying this). Many people are tricked into thinking that their liquid zeolite supplement is working because they are experiencing a detox reaction. Yes, it is working to some extent but the fact that you are experiencing a reaction means you need a way higher dose. Utilizing a high-quality zeolite powder can expedite your results and reduce or eliminate the detox reaction, even in sensitive individuals.
Liquid zeolite products contain tiny amounts of zeolite compared to ZeoCharge™. For comparison, our $59 jar of ZeoCharge™ contains between 1,000 and 25,000 times the amount of zeolite than most liquid zeolite products on the market.
So I believe ZeoCharge™ is a better option than any liquid zeolite product on the market as it contains a full range or particle sizes for a more comprehensive detox, is more cost-effective and make it possible to get the necessary detox dose without taking 100's of bottle per day.
"So far, ZeoCharge has been a game changer, and I don't say that lightly. I've tried other brands in the past (on the high dose protocol) and they've all come up short in comparison. I've been chronically ill for some time now and I can honestly say, this has been one of the few products to move the needle." -Kenson

The Ultimate Zeolite Experience!
The Ultimate Zeolite Experience is a 5-month protocol that includes 20 jars of ZeoCharge™. The protocol was developed off of the concepts presented in "The Higher Dose Theory of Zeolite" document. The idea of the protocol is to start with a high dose of ZeoCharge™ and work your way down each month. The first month you will go through six jars of ZeoCharge™ (6 scoops per day) and each month you will lower the dose by one scoop per day. At the end of the five month protocol you will have worked through 20 jars of ZeoCharge™.
What makes ZeoCharge™ different from other zeolite products?
