What Are Zeolites?

Zeolites are all natural. They form in nature as a result of a chemical reaction between volcanic lava and saline water. There are about 40 naturally occurring zeolites and over 100 synthetic zeolites.

How Can Zeolites Carry Toxins From Body?

Zeolites have large open spaces or cages in their structures that form channels. These channels allow the easy movement of ions and molecules into and out of the structure. This ability is what classifies zeolites as a material known as "molecular sieves."

Are All Zeolites Good Detoxifiers?

No. There are three different classes of zeolites with varying molecular chemical structures:

• Chain-like structures, whose minerals form acicular, or needle-like, prismatic crystals - as found in asbestos.
• Framework structures, where the crystals are more equal in dimensions - as found in chabazite.
• Sheet-like structures, where the crystals are flattened - as found in clinoptilolite.

Another unique and important fact about zeolites is that they are one of the few negatively charged minerals found in nature. The natural properties of zeolites act as molecular sieves, or filtering agents, that attract and trap into them positively charged atoms, ions, and compounds, and can remove them from a system.

What is Natural Cellular Defense liquid zeolites?

NCD Liquid Zeolite is a 100% natural liquid supplement formulated using patented Zeolite Technology.

Waiora’s NCD zeolite technology utilizes only clinoptilolite zeolites, as these are the ones that are natural volcanic minerals with a unique, complex crystalline structure that acts like a cage (or sponge), working at the cellular level, attracting and holding onto heavy metals and environmental toxins. Because this is one of the few negatively charged minerals in nature, zeolites act as a magnet, drawing toxins in, capturing them in their cage and safely removing them from the body. This unique ability to remove dangerous toxins is very well documented in various countries.

Which zeolite do you use for the Natural Cellular Defense?

We use naturally-occurring clinoptilolite in the Natural Cellular Defense. This particular zeolite has been used for over 800 years in traditional medicine to improve general health. It has been widely used in its raw form in places like India, China and Russia. In the United States, zeolites have been used in water filtration, air purification, animal feed and even in fertilizers to keep the crops healthy. Now we're using it in an enhanced form using a proprietary activation technology as a dietary supplement.

What Functions Does Zeolite Have?

Zeolite is a very potent volcanic mineral, which may act to reduce health risks, act as a potent antioxidant, aid the body in balancing pH levels, chelate and remove allergens, heavy metals, man made chemicals and other carcinogens from the body, reduce the incidence of diarrhea, improve nutrient absorption in the digestive tract, reduce acid reflux, stabilize immune function.

What is Natural Cellular Defense?

Waiora's Natural Cellular Defense has been clinically formulated to help support a healthy immune system, remove heavy metal toxins and balance your body's pH levels.* Waiora's Natural Cellular Defense is comprised of an activated, liquid form of a naturally-occurring zeolite.

Who formulated Liquid Zeolites?

Dr. Harvey Kaufman, PhD, spent 14 years researching and formulating Natural Cellular Defense liquid zeolite.

Is Natural Cellular Defense a Drug?

No. Originally Dr. Harvey Kaufman planned to seek FDA approval, to go through the process of FDA drug approval for his formula. The process takes many years and millions of dollars, so Dr. Kaufman consulted Rik Deitsch, PhD. One difference between a drug and a supplement is in the 'dose.' All drugs have a LD50, that is the lethal dose to kill 50% of the test subjects. Supplements usually are GRAS. GRAS stands for Generally Regarded As Safe. Had Dr. Harvey Kaufman moved forward with FDA drug approval, determining the LD50 would have been an obstacle. With the help of Rik Deitsch, Dr. Harvey’s formula was introduced to the world, much faster and at a much lower cost as a nutritional supplement.

What are Epithelial Cells?

Epithelial cells are skin tissues that cover and line the body. They cover all of the body’s organs (throat, lung, heart, breast, prostate, kidneys, liver, ovaries and colon) and line the bodies cavities (including the inside of the chest and abdominal cavity). These cells often times trap toxins, which NCD may remove.

So, what is actually in this mineral zeolite? Is it something that we can find on the periodic table?

It's a mineral with a cage-like structure. It's created by aluminum and silica that are trapped in small tetrahedra (pyramid-like structures) created by oxygen atoms. These form 8-sided and 10-sided rings that stack on top of each other to form channels. The aluminum is positively charged and the oxygen around it is negatively charged, giving the entire molecule a net negative charge. This is a very stable compound. For all practical purposes, this is an invincible molecule.

Can the aluminum be absorbed into the body from the zeolite?

No. The aluminum in the product is at the center of a tetrahedron (it's surrounded by tightly-held oxygen atoms). It is not free to exchange into the system. So imagine you have a pyramid that's made of oxygen with aluminum in the center of that pyramid. It's what they call 'non-exchangeable aluminum'. We have done studies where we have found that Natural Cellular Defense increased the excretion of additional aluminum, which means that the zeolite is pulling aluminum out of the body in addition to the aluminum contained in the product itself.

Is there any possibility of the aluminum being released because of this?

Absolutely not. NCD Liquid Zeolite is virtually indestructible and would need to be heated to 900 degrees for three continuous hours to be affected. Studies have been done where 100 percent of the aluminum was recaptured as it came out in fecal matter and urine from the patients. Additionally, it has been found that a patient would excrete additional aluminum, which proves that the zeolite is pulling aluminum out of the body in addition to the aluminum contained in the product itself.

How does Natural Cellular Defense work?

The zeolite in the Natural Cellular Defense attracts and traps small, highly-charged particles that fit into the pores and channels of the zeolite cage. This includes heavy metal toxins. The Natural Cellular Defense has been shown to remove mercury, lead, cadmium, arsenic and other heavy metals. Research has shown that it does help balance pH, which makes a more alkaline system. A slightly alkaline environment in the body helps to stabilize the immune system.

What side effects does Liquid zeolites have?

Most detoxification regimens cause some sort of side effect, mainly flu-like symptoms. Liquid Zeolites cage-like structure works so efficiently trapping the toxins and heavy metals that usually no side-effects are felt. Instead, most experience an overall feeling of well being.

What interactions does liquid zeolites have with other medications, if any?

If you are taking medications, always consult your doctor before adding any supplements to your regimen. In the special case of chemotherapy, Liquid Zeolite is so effective in removing toxins from the body and since chemotherapy uses toxic chemicals to poison cancer, please consult your doctor before adding to your regimen as a supplement.

Why is it important to detoxify my body?

The average person is exposed to more toxins through water and air pollution, household cleaning supplies, pesticides, disinfectants and food additives, every day, than ever before in the history of mankind. Thus, coupled with nutritional deficiencies, as a result of farming practices and depleted soils, this leads to increasingly weakened immune systems.

How Many drops should I take if I want to do a general detoxification of my body?

10-20 drops, four times each day, for 14 or more days. A urine challenge test will indicate when detoxification is complete, as each individual has different levels of toxins present in their bodies. To maintain the daily exposure of toxins, 3 or more drops, three times each day. For individualized recommendations, contact Dr. Dinn.

What kind of toxic chemicals are found in humans?

PCB’s, Dioxins, Phthalates, DDT and Furans. According to the 2005 report from the CDC’s Environmental Health Laboratory, there are currently 148 chemicals currently found in the blood and/or urine of Americans.

How is Liquid Zeolite a pH balancer?

The Zeolite in Liquid Zeolite is a negatively charged molecule and has a cage-like structure that is able to ‘trap’ H= ions, which lower the pH, or make it more acidic. Therefore, by ‘trapping’ these positively charged hydronium ions, Liquid Zeolite helps balance the pH to a more neutral and alkaline level. Further, heavy metals and other toxins produce an acidic environment, thus removing or reducing the toxic load may result in a more alkaline system.

Why Do I want To Balance My pH?

The optimum pH of the body should be slightly alkalkine, around 7.4. Bacteria, Candida yeast fungi and viruses thrive when the pH of the body is acidic. Thus, a body that has acidic ph, 6.9 and below, is an environment that disease can proliferate in.

What about the powder zeolites and other brands of liquid?

In nature, zeolites are a mineral that are filled with environmental toxins. All minerals are in essence rocks and for the most part cannot be absorbed by the body, unless they are changed to a water soluble form, or liquid. In the case of NCD, the patented process includes cleaning out the environmental toxins and putting them into a form that the body may utilize for detoxification. Some zeolites can be harmful to good health, and Waiora has ensured that the clinoptilolite zeolite is purified, activated and GRAS (FDA Generally Regarded As Safe).

Who needs to take Natural Cellular Defense?

Everyone! No one is protected from the toxins that are prevalent and unavoidable in our environment, even the unborn. A recent study done by The Environmental Working Group tested the umbilical cord blood of ten children (collected by the Red Cross, after birth, when the cord was cut). They found 287 industrial chemicals and pollutants in each cord. Out of these, 180 are known to cause cancer, 217 are toxic to the brain and nervous system and 208 cause birth defects in animals.

Similarly, Mt. Sinai School of Medicine tested the blood and urine of 9 volunteers. They found a total of 167 industrial chemicals, many which are known to cause cancer in humans, 94 which are toxic to the brain and nervous system, 72 affect lungs and breathing, 86 affect human hormones, 79 cause birth defects and/or abnormal development. Additionally, highly toxic heavy metals like lead, aluminum and mercury were found, as well as numerous herbicides and pesticides.

Everyone is exposed to heavy metal toxins on a daily basis in the air they breathe, the food they eat and the water they drink. In order to remove these toxins and maintain a clean and healthy body, everyone should take Natural Cellular Defense on a daily basis. We recommend the product for persons 18 years of age or older. People under the age of 18, pregnant women and children should consult their physicians prior to use.

How is Natural Cellular Defense manufactured?

The manufacturing facility itself is certified to be CGMP-compliant (current-Good Manufacturing Practices) by the FDA. GMP is an FDA (Food & Drug Administration) term for the Quality Control and Quality Assurance (QA/QC) procedures that are standard in the facility. This also includes training of the personnel, storage of materials and micro-analysis of the product. The manufacturing process takes approximately five to seven days. Some of the finished product is sent for analysis using Thin-Layer Chromatography (TLC) and High-Performance Liquid Chromatography (HPLC). The product is also sent through a detailed micro-analysis, where it is evaluated for any sort of contamination (bacterial, molds, spores, etc.). Finally, some bottles from every batch are retained so that these can be tested on a future date if it becomes necessary. We also periodically inspect the manufacturing facility and all of their batch records.

Why does the Natural Cellular Defense sometimes look, taste or smell differently?

While it is almost always clear, tasteless and odorless, the zeolite in the Natural Cellular Defense is an all-natural mined product. Because it is mined, its pigment qualities can be affected by outside elements - time of year, air and water most specifically (in the spring time, there may be more rain or snow run off as opposed to the fall). The color variations of zeolite can and do range from an off-white/beige color to a light green. Although these are very slight variations, they can cause great differences in the organoleptic properties of the product (taste and smell). As such, there will be some variability as to its excess mineral content (i.e. magnesium, sodium, potassium, iron, etc.). Although these are very slight variations, they can cause great differences in the taste, smell and color of the product. Additionally, some minerals may darken in solution (i.e. iron). Because of this, some of the Natural Cellular Defense can have a brownish tint. A recently tested sample of the product contained less than one (<1) microgram of iron. This was certainly enough iron to change the color of the product, but not enough to have any physiological effect.

If there are different amounts of minerals in the product, can it be dangerous?

No. The variations in the excess mineral content are negligible and cannot be considered as a source of the mineral.

Is one microgram a large amount of iron?

No. It's a negligible amount. As an example, one average bite of steak has approximately 500 micrograms of iron.

Why are other mineral products consistent while the Natural Cellular Defense may be different from one bottle to the next?

Most multi-mineral products use formulations of single, purified minerals. These are known quantities that may be entirely consistent. The Natural Cellular Defense uses a natural, mined product that contains natural variations of its mineral content. While the amount of the zeolite is standardized and remains constant in the product, the excess minerals may change.

Can the plastic from the bottles leach into the product?

No. We use a high-density bottle that is resistant to leaching and there are no components in the Natural Cellular Defense that are known to degrade plastic. We have had the bottle independently tested for plastic leaching and the results showed no leaching.

Will heat affect the zeolite in the Natural Cellular Defense?

The zeolite is an extremely stable molecule that can withstand very high temperatures (over 900 degrees Fahrenheit). Hot days will not change the product or limit its efficacy. The zeolite is an extremely stable molecule that can withstand very high temperatures (over 900 degrees Fahrenheit). Hot days will not change the product or limit its efficacy.

Will cold alter the product in any way?

The zeolite is completely stable at cold temperatures. If the product becomes frozen, simply defrost it and shake it lightly before using to ensure a uniform suspension of the zeolite.

Can the zeolite in the Natural Cellular Defense lower potassium in the body?

No. The zeolite has a very specific reactivity series. Smaller atoms with higher positive charges have greater affinity for the zeolite. Heavy metals tend to be small and highly charged while the necessary minerals tend to be larger with lower charges. For example, arsenic has a charge of +3 and a diameter of 1.8 Angstroms. Potassium only has a charge of +1 and a comparatively large diameter of 2.8 Angstroms. Arsenic has high affinity for the zeolite while potassium has almost no affinity for the zeolite.

Who manufactures Liquid Zeolites?

Waiora has the exclusive rights to Liquid Zeolite and it’s patented zeolite technology. The product is manufactured exclusively for Waiora at a facility adhering to certified Good Manufacturing Practices (CGMP) as set forth by the FDA.

How Do I Care For NCD after opening?

Zeolite is a virtually indestructible mineral that is unaffected by the sun or possible heat/conditions. They would need to be heated to 900 degrees for three continuous hours to be affected.
