I have come across a major breakthrough in detoxifying the human body of heavy metals and other toxins, and overall acid conditions that promote or directly cause disease.

According to the EPA, 70,000 chemicals are used commercially in the US, 65,000 of which are potentially hazardous to our health. We live in a virtual sea of pollutants, and carry many of these toxins within us. They can be found even in unborn children. A 2004 study by the Environmental Working Group identified 287 industrial chemicals in babies' umbilical-cord blood, including 180 known to cause cancer and 217 that are toxic to the brain and nervous system.

In my research to develop a detoxification system for prospective mothers, I recently learned about a natural detoxifier called zeolite. A naturally occurring mineral with a unique, negatively charged, crystalline structure, zeolite is formed from the fusion of lava and ocean water, and combines all four elements. It has been used for more than 800 years in Asia as a remedy for overall health and well-being, and is on the FDA's GRAS list (generally recognized as safe). Zeolite is available commercially in a purified, activated form, in the product Natural Cellular Defense.

The results of research and clinical reports on zeolite are very impressive:

1. Zeolite appears to prevent and may become an important treatment for cancer. In one study, 78 percent of the 65 participants with terminal cancer (many types) experienced complete remission (LifeLink Pharmaceuticals, 2005, currently not published).
2. It has a chelation-like effect in removing heavy metals (particularly mercury, cadmium, lead, and arsenic) and other toxins from the body. Preliminary results from a Duke University study of West Virginia coal miners found that Natural Cellular Defense significantly reduced heavy metals in this population as well as in otherwise healthy adults (to be published). Heavy metals are strongly correlated with a wide range of diseases, including cancers and neurological disorders such as Alzheimer's, autism, and dementia.
3. Zeolite also improves liver function, indirectly improving elimination of pesticides, herbicides, and xeno-estrogens.
4. Zeolite appears to block viral replication, and may prove to be a potent antiviral and general remedy for all viruses. To date, 40 anecdotal cases of herpes zoster have reportedly been healed. Preliminary anecdotal case studies suggest that it may help alleviate rheumatoid arthritis, multiple sclerosis, and hepatitis C as well as the common cold and flu.
5. Zeolite's binding power was proven during the Chernobyl disaster, when tons of it were used to remove radioactive cesium and strontium-90 before they contaminated local water systems.
6. Zeolite creates a natural buffer in the system by establishing an optimal pH level (between 7.35 and 7.45), which in turn activates healthy brain function and a strong immune system.
7. It is an effective detoxifier for prospective parents. Anecdotal evidence and centuries of use in Asia suggest that zeolite is safe to use even during pregnancy and breastfeeding, although its safe use in pregnancy has not been proven in double-blind studies. A pilot study at the Tree of Life Rejuvenation Center in 2006 found that the addition of Natural Cellular Defense to our detoxification protocol significantly reduced toxins such as heavy metals, pesticides, herbicides, and depleted uranium from the 55 adults we tested. Details of this study are presented below.
8. According to testimonials, zeolite promotes a sense of well-being, clarity, and happiness. It appears to do this as a consequence of eliminating toxins and also, according to preliminary research, by increasing serotonin production. One study suggests that zeolite also helps relieve depression.
9. Anecdotal reports suggest that zeolite increases energy, immune function, and general health.
10. Zeolite neutralizes the formation of nitrosamines in the stomach. Found in processed meats, nitrosamines are one cause of stomach cancer. Another positive effect on the stomach, according to many anecdotal reports, is relief of acid reflux.
11. Testimonials suggest that zeolite captures triggering antigens, which cause allergies, migraines, and asthma, decreasing the rate and severity of these symptoms.
12. Zeolite directly absorbs free radicals and thus decreases free radical activity and damage to the body.

To test the effectiveness of zeolite in detoxifying prospective mothers and fathers, I designed a pilot study of 60 people at the Tree of Life Rejuvenation Center earlier this year based on my protocol for preparing parents to bring forth nontoxic babies. The basic protocol consists of a one-week green-juice fast and detox support program, to which I added 15 drops of Natural Cellular Defense (NCD) four times a day. The following very significant results were found.

Thirty people were tested for depleted uranium (DU), a very serious worldwide radioactive contaminant resulting from DU armaments, which are used in Iraq. Of the 30 people tested, 28 had DU in at least one organ - the liver, breast, or brain - and 25 had DU in all three of these organs. After one week on the study protocol, all these people became DU-free except one, who still tested positive for depleted uranium in the liver.

Some of the study participants were also tested for Teflon and perfluorooctanoic acid (PFOA), the likely carcinogenic element of Teflon. Of the 44 people tested, Teflon was found in the livers of 39, the breasts of 37, and the brains of 40; PFOA was found in the livers of 40 of these people, the breasts of 41, and the brains of 40. All but two of those tested became Teflon-free after one week. One person had Teflon remaining in the breast tissue, and one had Teflon remaining in the brain. After a week on the study protocol, 43 of the 44 people were found to be free of PFOA, while one person was found to still have the toxin in the breast and brain tissue.

In addition, 60 people were tested for 14 to 26 common toxins including heavy metals, pesticides, and herbicides. In these 60 people, 801 of these toxins were initially found in the subjects' livers, 825 toxins were detected in the breasts, and 824 toxins were identified in brain tissue. On average, they were initially found to have 90 to 95% of these toxins in their livers, breasts, and brains, regardless of their diets (many of the people in the study are vegans who eat live food). After the week-long NCD/green-juice fast protocol, just 73 toxins remained in the subjects' livers, 103 toxins were left in their breasts, and 111 toxins were detected in their brains. The overall percentage of removal of these toxins from the participants' organs was 88%, leaving only 12% of the toxins in their systems overall. This included 91% removal of these toxins from the liver, 88% removal from the breast, and 87% removal from the brain. These results are presented in the table below:

Results of Week-Long NCD and Juice Fasting Nontoxic Baby Protocol

Four of the 60 subjects continued the green-juice fasting with NCD for two weeks, and the toxins we test for went down to 0, a 100% removal rate. These results suggest that there is a powerful synergy in using NCD along with a detoxifying green-juice fast. In observing thousands of fasters since 1988, I have found that fasting alone - although wonderful for enhancing the vital force - does not significantly rid the body of pesticides, herbicides, and heavy metals after one week.

I am proposing a theoretical model for explaining the testimonials of the powerful, across-the-board healing effects of Natural Cellular Defense (a purified zeolite) from such health problems as ADD/hyperactivity, addiction, Agent Orange exposure, arthritis, autism, cancer, cysts and tumors, depression, DES exposure, diabetes, fibromyalgia, flu, colds, and respiratory problems, gastrointestinal problems, heavy metal poisoning, hepatitis C, high blood pressure, HIV/AIDS, kidney stones, lack of mental clarity, pain, PMS/menstrual pain, silicone breast implant toxicity, skin conditions, spider bite, toothache/gum disease, varicose and spider veins, and viral, yeast, and other infections. The model is a foundational healing concept. It is that, by removing toxins (including heavy metals, pesticides, herbicides, and radioactive contaminants such as DU) as well as by increasing immune system function, alkalizing the blood, blocking viral replication, and neutralizing free radicals, NCD removes the blocks that compromise the vital life force. When the vital life force is freed up and activated, the body's natural ability to heal and relieve these chronic diseases is restored. With Natural Cellular Defense, we have returned to the basic healing approach for all chronic diseases, which is to free up and activate the vital life force. NCD is truly an alchemical gift from the Divine.

Natural Cellular Defense is a clear liquid that, taken daily as oral drops, supports us in living healthy, happy, and active lives in an increasingly toxic world.
