A Good Alternative Detox Program

I have written about detox many times before but I have never written a detox program other than coffee enema, although I knew of many other alternatives. I understand that many people (even those with cancer) are put off by doing coffee enema detox, now they can consider doing this detox. Most detox only cleans (this and/or that organ) but this one not only does that, it also improves the alkalinity of your pH and at the same time also destroy cancer cells!

The ZEODETOX program, which is also part of the Budwig protocol works on a couple of the basic issues in cancer. It is a powerful detoxifier, and improves the alkalinity of your body. It also takes a load off the liver and kidneys as it absorbs toxins. More importantly, according to information in United States Patent no. 6,288,045, zeolite can, when pulled into cancer cells, activate the P21 gene which tells a cancer cell to die, or literally, according to this patent, destroy the nucleus of cancerous cells.

When the zeolite moves inside the cell, the P21 gene is activated. P21 acts as a tumor suppressor through its ability to control cell cycle progression. The activation of P21 appears to halt the growth of tumors by directly suppressing growth signals. In in-vitro studies, all cancer cells tested were destroyed in 72 hours, which is a claim no other substance has been able to make. The beauty of it, of course, is that there are no side effects because it specifically targets cancer cells.

The zeolite supplement is so efficient that just 100 drops has the equivalent toxin absorption area of nearly 8m2! There is no other health supplement on the market that is as pure or as effective at detoxifying the body. Not only is it on the FDA's General Recognized As Safe list (FDA GRAS), the supplement is so safe that it has been taken by pregnant women and babies with absolutely no side effects.

In a research by Ruder Bosković Institute, Division of Molecular Medicine, Zagreb, Croatia, researches found that natural silicate materials, including zeolite clinoptilolite, have been shown to exhibit diverse biological activities and have been used successfully as a vaccine adjuvant and for the treatment of diarrhea. They report a novel use of finely ground clinoptilolite as a potential adjuvant in anticancer therapy. Clinoptilolite treatment of mice and dogs suffering from a variety of tumor types led to improvement in the overall health status, prolongation of life-span, and decrease in tumors size. Local application of clinoptilolite to skin cancers of dogs effectively reduced tumor formation and growth. In addition, toxicology studies on mice and rats demonstrated that the treatment does not have negative effects. In vitro tissue culture studies showed that finely ground clinoptilolite inhibits protein kinase B (c-Akt), induces expression of p21WAF1/CIP1 and p27KIP1 tumor suppressor proteins, and blocks cell growth in several cancer cell lines. These data indicate that clinoptilolite treatment might affect cancer growth by attenuating survival signals and inducing tumor suppressor genes in treated cells.

Zeolites
Zeolites are a group of minerals formed by the mixture of molten lava and seawater during the formation of new land. Zeolites have a unique crystalline structure which attracts and entraps heavy metals and toxins, eventually being excreted through the body's natural elimination system.

Zeolite, technically a mineral, consists of alternating Silica Tetra Oxide and Aluminum Tetra Oxide crystals that arrange themselves in a lattice-like configuration. The actual Clinoptilolite Zeolites are relatively unique in nature because they have a negative charge. Because of that negative charge, they attract heavy metals and toxins, all of which are typically positively charged. With that negative charge, they are also able to redistribute lighter metals (sodium, calcium, magnesium, phosphorus) and acid-causing hydrogen ions throughout the body, also known as pH buffering.

Zeolites are unique among chelating agents because they discriminate between good and bad metals. They're able to discriminate because they don't have the same strength of attraction to all molecules. They bind more strongly to heavy metals and have little or no affinity to lighter "good" metals and are flushed out through the urine within 6-8 hours. It can also be used externally for face & body masques, or added to your bath water for a detoxifying soak.

Zeolite is also very effective in removing radiation, as shown in the cleanup after the Chernobyl nuclear accident. The people showed a 30% reduction in radioactive isotopes after the very first application of Zeolite!

Liquid Zeolite Dosage Recommendations from Gabriel Cousens M.D.:
Natural Cellular Defense (NCD) is in liquid drops and can be taken with or without food. It can be taken directly on the tongue, in a hot or cold drink, or in hot or cold food.

* The general treatment for everyone is 10 drops three times a day, with or without meals. As a support for cancer prevention or as an addition to a cancer treatment program, 15 drops three to four times a day is recommended. Zeolite remains active in the body for five to seven hours, and then needs to be replenished.
*After four to six weeks of use (at 10 drops three times a day), a maintenance dosage of three to five drops three times a day can be taken, with the amount increased if ever there is a viral, chemical, or other exposure. Children can be given two drops, three times a day, as a general dose.
*Higher doses of 15 drops, three times a day, require about four bottles a month. Doses of 10 drops, three times a day, require about three bottles a month. And the maintenance dosage of three drops, three times a day, requires one bottle a month.

While on NCD, it's very important to stay well hydrated by drinking at least 8 glasses of water per day.

Powder Zeolite Dosage.
*For detoxification or general well being:
Take 1 measured teaspoon once a day. (Can be taken and mixed in foods or drink).

*For an acute health problem:
Take 1 measured teaspoon 3 times a day until resolved. The recommendation is a minimum of 90 days before being re-evaluated by your doctor.

*Detoxifying Bath:
Add 1/4 - 1 cup (or any quantity you desire) to your bath water for a deeply detoxifying soak.

1 teaspoon approximates 5gms. Depending on where you buy, a bottle can weigh 400gms, 440gms or 500gms.

Notes:
* Zeolite should NOT be taken with any medications containing heavy metals, such as lithium, or with the use of medications containing platinum.
* Please note that these are suggestions and nothing in this site is intended or considered treatment of any kind. Please see your doctor for any medical conditions or any treatment

From the costs prespective, this detoxification method is not that cheap, costing an average of US$210 per month for cancer patients for the first three months but the costs will come down to about US$52 per month during the maintenance period. Free shipping is normally offered in the US, but postage or courier charges are payable outside US, so the costs for overseas users would be higher by about US$50. Be sure to buy from a reputable source because not all zeolites are suitable for human consumption.

Should I use the powder or liquid form? For a report on whether liquid zeolite or powder zeolite is better, please click here. The Budwig Wellness Center uses liquid zeolite (not sure what brand they use). There are marketing claims between rival companies (liquid versus powder zeolite) but personally, I would go for powder zeolite because it's purer and in its natural form.
