Zeolite in Human Health

MED® Zeolite Toothpaste – 75 ml | Zeolite | Zeolife.gr

Natural oral hygiene and tooth decay prevention with zeolite and xylitol MED® zeolite toothpaste has been formulated using natural ingredients. zeolite, a natural detoxifying agent found in nature, combined with xylitol, removes dental infections and reduces plaque build-up. Its anti-caries effect is due to the inhibition of the development of caries caused by bacteria such as Streptococcus mutans.  Furthermore, it prevents plaque-forming bacteria from adhering to the surface of the teeth.  The mild taste of xylitol makes this toothpaste suitable for children too. Natural, effective formula without fluoride Free from synthetic fragrances, flavourings and preservatives Reduces plaque-causing bacteria and prevents tooth ... Read more

Natural zeolites in the water treatment process

Natural zeolites in the water treatment process D. BARLOKOVÁ ABSTRACT In many cases, it is necessary to treat water intended for human consumption in order to meet the requirements set out in Regulation No. 354/2006 of the Government of the Slovak Republic, which defines the requirements for water intended for human consumption and monitors the quality of drinking water. When seeking suitable water treatment technologies, the focus is on developing new, more efficient and cost-effective technologies and materials. The aim of this study was to compare the removal of dissolved iron and manganese from water using the natural zeolite – ... Read more

Zeolite: “the magic stone”? Mainly nutritional, environmental, experimental and clinical fields of application

Carmen Laurino and Beniamino Palmieri University of Modena and Reggio Emilia, Modena (Italy). Abstract Introduction: zeolites (clinoptilolites) are a family of alluminosilicates and cations clustered to form macro aggregates by small individual cavities. In the medical area they are involved in detoxification mechanisms capturing ions and molecules into their holes. Actually, we classify about 140 types of natural and 150 synthetic zeolites, for specific and selective use. Clinoptilolite is a natural zeolite and it is the most widespread compound in the medical market. Objective: this review analyzes the main fields of zeolite utilization. Methods: we searched Pubmed/Medline using the terms ... Read more

Medical Applications of Zeolites – Kresimir Pavelic and Mirko Hadzija

Ruder Boskovic  Institute, Zagreb, Croatia I. INTRODUCTION A particular structural feature of zeolites relative to other aluminosilicate materials, and other crystalline materials in general, is the existence of channels and/or cavities linked by channels. One of the characteristics that distinguishes zeolites from other porous materials is their variety of pore sizes and shapes. The size and shape of channels/cavities in zeolites therefore define the structural parameters of a given type of zeolite (1). Properties of zeolites, such as ion exchange, intercrystalline pores that discriminate between molecules of different dimension, strong acidic sites, and active reservoirs for metal-catalyzed reactions, have earned ...

Skouries in essence – N. Lygeros

Firstly, the unacceptable chemical extraction of gold must be stopped as soon as possible. Secondly, this has nothing to do with any promise, but with the fact that it is devastating for the environment and, more importantly, that it is irreversible. Thirdly, the exact number of workers is irrelevant; what matters is what alternative work we can offer them, and the answer is zeolite. Read the rest here: Lygeros.org

The innovative use of zeolite – N. Lygeros

The innovative power of zeolite – N. Lygeros Whilst some of us wonder whether we can change reality through innovation, we now have a tangible example in Giorgos Georgiadis and his company, OLYMPOS S.A. For not only did the two of them believe in a vision for the Greece of the future, but they also took the risk of putting that discovery into practice. And that is where the difference lies. It is one thing to believe, and quite another to remain faithful to the vision of zeolite. The choice of the Kokkalos area, next to Petrota, was made without ... Read more
