Photographs showing the use of natural zeolite in feed and in the environment of pigs and cattle at a livestock farm in Preveza.

Gerald C Sharon – University of Minnesota Twin Cities,  Pao K Ku – Michigan State University, E R Miller, M T Yokoyama Abstract Growth, nutrient balance, plasma ammonia levels and urinary p-cresol excretion were evaluated in growing pigs fed diets containing various levels of zeolite A or clinoptilolite. In one growth trial, crossbred pigs averaging 25 kg initial body weight were assigned to diets containing no zeolite, .3% zeolite A or .5% clinoptilolite for a 6-wk growing phase trial. Average daily gain (ADG), average daily feed intake (ADF) and feed/gain (F/G) were unaffected by supplementation of either zeolite in the diet, but metabolizable energy ... Read more

The canary is a songbird of the order Passeriformes and belongs to the family Fringillidae. The official name of the domestic canary is *Sirinus canaria domesticus*.

Varieties Domestic canary Canaries are divided into three main categories: Dutch ... Read more

Zeolite and pets | Zeolife.gr Natural zeolite provides the most natural and economical solution for maintaining a healthy and clean environment for our pets, whilst also helping to improve their health. By replacing the bedding we use for our pets (sand, wood shavings or even newspaper) we improve air quality and reduce odours from our pets’ urine and faeces by binding gaseous ammonia, which is responsible for serious damage to the respiratory system of both animals and humans. Furthermore, sprinkling fine zeolite powder on the floor and across the entire surface of the bed significantly reduces humidity in the animal’s bed. ... Read more

zeolite can be added to animal feed in powder form, at a rate of 2 per cent of their feed ration. It cleanses their digestive system of heavy metals, free radicals and toxins. Using 2–3 kilograms of zeolite per square metre on the floor of stables or other areas where animals are kept, it significantly reduces odours by absorbing and neutralising ammonia and hydrogen sulphide.
