Greetings, All:
Regarding the Fukushima Radiation Challenge, we're not proposing we have all the answers, we are proposing we have significant answers which if deployed will give us some significant breathing time. This is an open-ended collaborative effort given the magnitude of the problem so understand all people of scientific or political and financial, legal, lawful and media capability or connections are welcome, and please have them contact me, Lisa J. Wolf (775-304-4071) or Eddy (310-940-2404) regarding the specific nature of their proposed contribution. Our emphasis is on any immediate, intermediary and/or long-term solution that can be proven and financed for immediate deployment for the betterment and sustainability of life on this planet. As part of the intermediary approach, the component of keeping our own bodies relatively detoxed is paramount and we will be disseminating and sharing what we understand will best keep us and others healthy enough to solve the problem. We are still seeking all feasible solutions. We need people who have a biography and radiation science background that have radiation detection equipment that are willing to come forward and reveal the actual objective reality of the presence of radiation for example in Hawaii, as well as off the California coast; and these people need to be willing to share their biographies as qualified radiation scientists whether they be nuclear engineers, physicists, PhDs in Applied Physics. We'll need to be taking video footage of radiation readings to compare with the radiation levels the EPA is proclaiming. Anyone who meets these qualifications and wants to remain anonymous, we will give you the highest legal level of assurance you will always remain so. All for one and one for all! If you want to hide in the bushes or come in the light we'll accept any and all qualified help. We welcome donations of time, operating capital or radiation detection equipment and any appropriate health products we can offer to the needy population of the World |

Memo to consumers from David Yurth:
Radioactive Nuclear Waste PollutionThe world we live in is characterized by radioactive materials that are present everywhere. The fact of the matter is that NORM (naturally occurring radioactive material) is present in every pile of residual dirt carried up out of the mouth of every well on the planet. NORM isn’t regulated by the EPA or OSHA – it is common practice in the oil patch to pile it up, stabilize it with a coagulant and let it sit. Eventually, the sun dries it out and the wind blows it all over the place. If you place a Geiger counter next to a freshly-drilled well, you will measure up to 2,000 cpm (Curies Per Minute). Nobody worries about it because it’s simply part of the deal. If you take a Geiger counter to the grocery store, especially stores where organic foods are sold, you will discover that virtually every foodstuff that is displayed in its natural state will trigger a noticeable level of bequerel counts on a properly functioning Geiger device. If you test the soles of your shoes, you will discover the same thing – we pick this nasty stuff up on the soles of our shoes and then track it all over the inside of our dwellings. The important thing to know about this issue is simply this – the world we live in is no longer reasonably devoid of man-made nuclear contaminants. They are everywhere – in the air we breathe, the water we drink, the food we eat, the houses we live in, the clothes we wear. No one is going to interdict the production and proliferation of these materials any time soon – not agencies of government, not power producers, not politicians or technology developers. If we are going to be safe, it is up to us to find ways to at least detect and avoid the dangers so we can protect ourselves and our families. This is a troublesome issue. In the most recent reports circulated about the dangers produced by the methane leak at Porter Ranch CA, all sorts of indiscriminate remarks were made about the dangers posed by radioactive contaminants carried aloft by the exhaust stream. Fear-mongering and deliberately biased reporting serve to confuse and terrify us, but they do not provide meaningful, useful information that we can use to deal with real problems associated with such events. Here’s an example of why this kind of reporting is problematical. The Curie-per-hour figures cited in recently-published articles about the Porter Ranch methane gas leaks are presumably based on the detectable emissions propagated by radon gas carried in the exhaust plume. Radon, thorium, cesium, cobalt, uranium and many other radioactive materials, are part of the natural world. When oil, gas and water wells are drilled below a certain stratum, always unknown until the hole is actually punched, radon gas is always released. See all those expensive granite counter tops in the kitchens of the houses in Porter Ranch and millions of other homes? If you pass a Geiger counter over any one of them, you will invariably detect radioactive emissions. Granite is a vitreous material which contains NORM (Naturally Occurring Radioactive Material), which is found literally everywhere beneath the surface of the planet. No one gets upset about the use of granite counter tops in domestic kitchens – we live with it because it is not effectively problematical. NORM and Radon gas aside, the problems associated with the deliberate production of high level radioactive nuclear waste are quite another matter. Widely publicized events such as Three Mile Island, Chernobyl, Los Alamos NM, and Fukushima, have drawn our attention to the inevitability of catastrophic nuclear contamination. During the last 75 years, more than 800 nuclear detonations have been triggered in the western deserts of Nevada – some above ground and some below. Similarly calamitous tests conducted by Russia, France, United Kingdom, and other industrialized nations, have contributed to the global proliferation of high level nuclear contamination of the planet. Dust clouds produced by explosions conducted in Nevada contained millions of tons of high level radioactive nuclear waste, the most persistent and pernicious of which is Cesium 134. If you submit soils collected from natural surfaces collected anywhere in southern California, Utah, Nevada and Northern Arizona, you will find significant accumulations of Ce-134. This is nasty stuff – it is long-lived, and it enters the food chain at every level. Water, milk, vegetables, wine, fruits, nuts, meats – everything raised in So Cal contains potentially dangerous levels of Ce-134. This is the stuff that has induced so many pernicious cancers in millions of ‘Down Winders’ over the past 75 years. EPA, DOE and the NRC don’t want the public to know about this. Truthful information about dangerous accumulations of these materials has consistently been suppressed for more than 60 years. Worse, the agencies of government charged with informing and protecting us from the dangers of nuclear pollution have consistently lied to us as a matter of public policy. During the past 4 ½ years since the 3/11 Fukushima/TEPCO event, huge amounts of Ce-137, a daughter product of weapons grade plutonium, have been repeatedly, continuously released into the air and the Pacific Ocean. Since that time, winds have carried frightening amounts of this stuff across the Pacific Ocean, where it has rained down on the entire Pacific coast, from Alaska to Chile. Most recently, EPA has reported dangerous accumulations of it across the Midwest and, more particularly, along the New England sea coast. It is increasingly present in blue fin tuna caught in the northern Pacific, which are being confiscated as soon as they are caught in Alaska, Washington, Oregon and California. If you want to see how widespread and dangerous this stuff is, take a Geiger counter and walk into the sea food department of any grocery store in North America. If you pass the Geiger-counter across the surface of any wild-caught Pacific or Norwegian salmon, sea bass, Tuna or any other deep sea fish, you will trigger an alarming response. I found this out the hard way when I tried this test in one of the local Whole Foods stores where we have been buying Pacific wild caught salmon for more than 25 years. When I passed the Geiger counter over the top of the Pacific salmon fillets, it sounded the speaker alarm on my device. The fish department manager literally ran over to physically escort me out of the store. Grocers know this is a problem and they are very aggressive about suppressing it when customers discover it on their own. Why are the EPA/ FDA not blowing the whistle on this? Because they don’t dare. The inmates are running the asylum. DiscussionBe aware of what you are doing and don’t eat or drink stuff that emits enough radiation to be picked up by a conventional Geiger counter. There is a deep-seated, unspoken problem associated with all these issues – Geiger counter devices operate on the basis of high velocity heavy nuclear particles that pass through the glass encasement of the Geiger-muller tube which is used to detect the presence of radiation. Consumer-grade Geiger counters are not very reliable detection devices, for a whole range of important reasons. Their readings are notoriously unreliable – laboratory grade devices costing upwards of $5000 are less than 70% reliable – consumer-grade devices operate in the 30% reliability range. Fortunately, we have developed a new kind of radiation detector that does not rely on antiquated Geiger-muller high voltage detection tubes. What Geiger devices cannot do is distinguish between electron emission sources. For example, Thorium-132, which is totally harmless unless you eat a couple of pounds of it at a time and plutonium-129, which will kill you dead as a door nail in 24 hours if you hold it in your hand, both register the same display information on the typical Geiger screen. Alpha emissions and beta emissions are not equally dangerous – electrons emitted by radon and NORM will light up a Geiger device but are essentially harmless in almost all cases. Ce-134 will be detected almost everywhere but is present in marginally dangerous quantities. Ce-137 is much more dangerous than either radon or NORM. When this stuff is detected, there is genuine cause for concern. The challenge is to have access to a simple hand-held technology that can discriminate between ambient sources of relatively harmless radiation and genuinely dangerous emissions. Geiger devices are calibrated on the basis of Cobalt 60, the primary by-product of nuclear fission in most high temperature gas cooled nuclear reactor cores. This calibration point makes the marginal readings provided by Geiger devices misleading in several important ways. In contrast, newly-developed devices are calibrated to a different standard – this makes it possible for state-of-the-art equipment to discriminate between alpha and beta emissions. Nevertheless, if you get a strong reading with any kind of radiation detection device, you can be absolutely certain that whatever is contained in the emission source is totally not suitable for ingestion, in any amount. A Geiger counter cannot give you that information. SourcesConsumers have access to literally hundreds of kinds of radiation detection devices via the Internet. Lisa Wolf, SLOPE and their associates have posted and will continue to update links, analytical materials, and source information for new devices as they come to market. Additionally, written materials that explain specific things that can be done to eliminate radioactive materials which accumulate in our bodies will be made available to you. For starters, get your hands on the book entitled ‘Fukushima Meltdown & Modern Radiation: Protecting Ourselves and Our Future Generations’, published in January 2012. This wonderful book describes what happened at Fukushima and provides a long list of practical, effective steps we can take to reduce the risks associated with radioactive contamination, remove contaminants from our bodies, and remediate some of the damage that occurs when high level radioactive materials contaminate our living environments. I co-moderated the Fukushima Solutions Conference with John in March 2014 – he is thoroughly knowledgeable and certifiably competent to inform you about this important topic. If you have found other writers whose books, articles, and publications can contribute meaningfully to this conversation, please feel free to send them to W.B.N. S.L.O.P.E. so we can post them for the benefit of others. Strategic Approach to Personal SafetyWhat would happen, do you suppose, if hundreds of thousands of us began posting personal discoveries of radioactive contamination found in grocery stores all over America? When I was escorted out of the Whole Foods fish department by the manager, I asked him, “What is the problem here? If you know this food is radioactively contaminated, why do you continue to sell it? Why do you refuse to disclose this information to your customers? Don’t you understand the consequences of continuing down this road?” His response was chilling. “Company protocol requires me to escort anyone who uses a radiation detector our of my store, immediately.” This is a terrifying response because it means (1) the grocery store owners know this is a problem, (2) they have decided to hide that information from us, and (3) have decided to protect their profit margins at our collective expense by lying to us about it. We don’t have to tolerate this behavior. We may not be able to bring meaningful pressure to bear on those who generate the waste materials or who fail to protect us from the consequences, but we can exert an immediate and global effect on those who supply foodstuffs by shining a bright light on contaminated foods when we discover and report them. That is what this web site is all about. It’s time for us to take effective measures to protect ourselves and each other from the consequences of unremediated high level radioactive waste pollution. We have the means to do this. Let’s make it happen. David G.

Radiation Bioremediation NOW!
Starting in the early 70s, the agencies in the former USSR invested more than 20,000 person-years of research and development under the leadership of Dr. Michael Kiriac, PhD, to produce Bio-Algae Concentrates (BAC) that hold extraordinary nutritional properties. Consisting of blends of the best algae among thousands available on earth, these concentrates have been tested and proven for agricultural and human applications now for more than 25 years. These naturally-occurring nutrient storehouses are enhanced with innovative growth technologies. The resulting synergistic nutraceutical blends far exceed the benefits of any other single alga, algae blend, green food or superfood. The Chernobyl nuclear power plant reactor exploded on April 26th 1986, creating chaos, extreme pain, and suffering, but at the same time allowing major advances in the human application of BAC. The disaster was a major event in the life of Mr. Kiriac and his family, and of course for the USSR at large. War measures were enacted for all of Russia after the explosion and were maintained for many months. The extent of the disaster was increasing everyday and its potential spread remained unknown. Mr. Kiriac and his family lived 500 km (about 300 miles) from the epicenter and were subjected to radiation directly as well as through the local food from plants and animals. Both his children, Rodika and Stefana, were affected like most local children. Both daughters had marks on the head and body. Rodika, then seven, was loosing up to two-inch wide patches of hair. Mr. Kiriac fed BAC to his entire family, putting them on daily rations of the thick paste concentrates, fresh from the bioreactor. To this day, the oldest daughter, Rodika, can still remember the strong smell and taste of BAC. She is very grateful to her father for providing his wonderful invention to the family. Today, both daughters are healthy, beautiful young women. When disaster struck at Chernobyl, Ukraine, not only was the region around the reactor affected, but the neighboring state of Belarus received 70% of the radioactive fallout and 23% of its territory became contaminated. Over 160,000 children and 146,000 cleanup workers were victims of radiation poisoning which resulted in birth defects, leukemia, cancer, and thyroid disease, degeneration of spinal fluids, liver and bone marrow, as well as anemia, loss of vision and appetite, and a severely compromised immune system. Because of his previous success with BAC and various cancers in many animal species, and with humans, in smaller scale clinical studies, Mr. Kiriac was able to work locally with adults and children that were suffering from radiation exposure. BAC was administered in therapeutic doses and Mr. Kiriac, working with a small team, was able to closely monitor the regenerative power of BAC. Several health improvements were noted in the health of those treated compared to others who did not receive BAC:
Many people died as a result of the Chernobyl explosion, but with many given the BAC, rapid progress in healing was observed and several of the victims treated survived and are alive today. Mr. Kiriac remarks, “It is important to note that the Chernobyl disaster is still ongoing. Even though the exploded reactor is sealed in concrete, radiation continues to this day to escape not only into the local atmosphere, but due to winds, into the world atmosphere as well.” Find out how BAC now helps thousands of people in Europe, Canada and the USA providing health benefits for heart disease, cancer, diabetes, arthritis, fibromyalgia, liver disorders, osteoarthritis, glaucoma, endocrine gland disorders, depression, allergies, arthritis, nervous system and immune system disorders, and more.

It’s a super concentrated, water based solution of ionic minerals made from a type of crystalline deposit called Black Mica. Drinking Blue Z Water is like hitting the cosmic “search and replace” button. It “searches” for the massive array of toxins found in your body, cleans them, and then “replaces” them with this living miracle Black Mica mineral matrix that sustains all life! This water has three major dynamic actions:
“My original thought was to take advantage of this oxygen’s presence in water that carries energy called “ion”, which the oxygen in the air does not carry. By activating this oxygen, thus increasing the power of oxidation, I could stop the rotting process of organic matters within the water (the reverse of reduction state of oxidization) and pull away the contaminants through the process called Agglutination ………So rather than working with the Dissolved Oxygen, we thought of activating the oxygen within the water’s molecules, to create radical oxygen, called -OH by introducing minerals in an ionized state. It was our fortune that we have succeeded in making this a reality.” In essence, he was able to convert ordinary oxygen in standing water into activated oxygen. This activated oxygen becomes the key component for cleaning the toxins contained within the water. Then the minerals facilitate the removal of all by-products of the cleaning process (agglutination). Finally, this super mineral solution provides essential nutrients for soil, plants, humans and animals.
Fulvic Acid 60ml and 100mlFulvic acid is part of the organic humic structure in composition. Being a significantly smaller molecule than humic acid, it has the ability to penetrate the cell and mitochondria of the cell, attracting to itself 3 times its weight in heavy metals or radioisotopes altering the ionic form of those toxins, which means it is efficient in removing toxins out of your cells and out of your body. This wonderful molecule stimulates food metabolism of proteins to re-grow damaged and dying cells. It catalyzes vitamins, minerals, and improves enzyme reaction while scavenging toxins, heavy metals and radiation. Read More Here! Ingredients: Our fulvic acid is mechanically extracted from certified organic humate mined in Alberta, Canada to provide the highest and purest concentration of 3% fulvic acid available on the market. Fulvic Acid Eye Drops 60mlFulvic acid is an anti-inflammatory agent. Hospital eye clinic patients with ulcerous cornea infection had 94.2% success rate when treated with fulvic acid eye drops and injections. Especially effective with bloodshot eyes, Fulvic eye drops have had significant success in treating eye diseases caused by virus, bacteria, or fungus, and also in healing ulcerous wounds, relieving inflammation, and stopping hemorrhaging, without side effects. See more details about Fulvic Acid's effectiveness with eyes here. Humic Acid Humic Acid 60ml and 100mlHumic Acid is a natural ionic molecule extracted from ancient organic soil deposits, a key element for our nutrient starved world. These ancient soil deposits—named humus, or humin, from the Greek word for soil, is vital for the reversal and prevention of disease and essential for optimal health. Humic acid contains highly-concentrated minerals and healing substances. These healing substances are composed of long chain molecules which are high in molecular weight, dark brown to black in color and soluble in an alkaline solution. Humic acid binds to both positive and negative charged ions making it the most powerful free radical scavenger natural anti-oxidant. The humic acid molecule prevents viruses from re-attaching to host cells by coating the receptor sites of the viruses with a protective thin film, a process known as "viral fusion inhibition". This prevents viruses from binding with cells. This supports the body's natural ability to arrest the growth of the most threatening viruses. Humic acid's function is to balance, energize all cell life and biological properties it comes in contact with. Black Gold Medicine as the ancients called it, was used throughout history and continues to this day to be used as an outstanding healing agent since the 14th century Ming Dynasty, China.

Ingredients: Humic acid is mechanically extracted from certified organic humate mined in Alberta, Canada to provide one of the highest and purest concentration of 12% humic acid concentrate on the market. Humic Acid Powder 400gHumic Acid powder can be used medicinally, added to food or taken as a supplement. It is especially effective used in agricultural applications. It can be applied dry, but it is more commonly mixed with water in a watering can, sprayer, or irrigation system. Although the application rate is very low, it is optimal, so applying more is not better. ATP Plus Fulvic Acid with ATP and Life Crystals ATP Plus 60 ml and 100 mlATP is the "most widely delivered high-energy compound within the human body." This enzyme molecule is considered the pure energy engine of life as we know it. It is used to build molecules, contract muscles and generate electrical impulses in the nerves. All fuel sources, grown naturally, like fruits and vegetables produce ATP that in turn powers virtually every activity of the cell and organism. It supplies energy to the heart muscle, other muscles for movement and carries out many other functions. Studies suggest that it provides for 95% of all cellular energy in the body. Without it, life would cease. Our ATP+ has mechanically extracted fulvic acid added to the formula as a carrier telling the mitochondria to make more ATP. Life Crystals have been extracted from organic fruit juices, oolong tea, coffee and honey using a solar distillation process, yielding a concentration of ATP and GTP in a ultra pure crystalline base of the 5 carbon sugars. Humalife 100% organic fulvic acid concentrate has been added as a carrier of ATP directly into cells, which tells your mitochondria to make more ATP. Read More Here!

Bioremediation with Zeolite NOW!
Emmanouil Karampahtsis, Doctor of Naturopathic Medicine 14300 North Northsight Boulevard #207 Scottsdale, Arizona 85260 December 2012 ORIGINAL STUDY © Zeolite: Investigation of the Effectiveness and Safety as an Oral Chelating Agent for Heavy Metals. A comparison between different commercially available preparations ABSTRACT Background This case study was performed to evaluate the effectiveness of clinoptilolite zeolite (“zeolite” herein) as an oral chelating agent for heavy metals. Zeolite is a hydrated aluminosilicate with symmetrically stacked alumina and silica tetrahedra which result in an open and stable three dimensional honey comb structure with a negative charge. The negative charge within the pores is neutralized by positively charged ions (cations) such as calcium. Historically, zeolite has been used as a commercial absorbent, and more recently in the dietary supplement industry as a detoxifier. Methods Three different commercially available zeolite preparations for oral consumption were used: an oral spray, oral drops, and a powdered preparation. The chelating capabilities of the different zeolite preparations on 20 different heavy, and potentially toxic, metals were measured in urinary excretion in 20 human subjects. The excretion rates were compared to baseline (non-consumption) measurements to ensure consistency. The safety was evaluated with pre and post testing of blood counts and chemistry, as well as liver and kidney function. Results It was possible to observe the capability of different zeolite preparations to increase the excretion of heavy metals from the human body in a safe manner. The effectiveness of three different zeolite preparations was observed. Conclusions When properly prepared as an oral supplement, zeolite can provide detoxification support to the human body to rid itself of heavy and toxic metals with minimal or no side effects. This can include applications to address lead, mercury or radiation poisoning. BACKGROUND There are several commercially available preparations of zeolite in capsule, drop, powdered, and spray forms. They all claim the capacity of zeolite to work as a chelating agent on different heavy metals. Zeolite has been rated Generally Regarded As Safe (GRAS) for human consumption by the Federal Drug Administration (FDA) and it has been used commercially for water filtration for years. Most studies published show the effectiveness of zeolite to clean up contaminated water from heavy metals and other toxins. The lack of human studies proving the effectiveness of zeolite as an oral chelating agent was the reason to perform this trial. The three zeolite preparations that were tested were the following: oral drops (Waiora, Natural Cellular Defense, Boca Raton, Florida, USA), powdered zeolite (ZEO Health, Zeolite Pure, Valley Cottage, New York, USA), and an oral spray (Results RNA, ACZ Nano Extra Strength, Salt Lake City, Utah, USA). The trial compared the higher doses recommended by each of the liquid (oral drops and oral spray) preparations’ respective companies, to the minimum dose recommended by the powdered zeolite preparation’s company. Our testing hypothesis is that zeolite, being an effective chelating agent of heavy metals in the body, should increase the excretion of those metals that it binds with, in urine. The anticipated outcome of our hypothesis is that the use of zeolite should increase the excretion of heavy metals in urine in comparison to non-use of zeolite. Provided that other parameters are fairly constant, such as the introduction of new heavy metals in the body (e.g. from consumption of contaminated seafood), we should be able to measure the difference of the heavy metal excretion in urine following consumption of zeolite. METHODS The trial was organized in accordance with the Declaration of Helsinki, was registered with Current Controlled Trials Ltd (Registration Number ISRCTN12861674) and was performed from January through March 2012. To be eligible for the trial, participants needed to be above eighteen years of age, not pregnant or breastfeeding, and not currently taking heavy metal based medications. Participants were informed of the trial protocol, laboratory testing requirements, and their performance expectations prior to enrollment. Each participant needed to provide oral consent and meet the eligibility requirements in order to be enrolled in the trial. Recruitment started the week prior to onset of study, January 18th 2012. Twenty participants were randomly assigned to alternating groups (Group A or Group B) based on the order in which they arrived to obtain the testing materials. The trial took place and data collection was performed in one location, Lipogenex Anti-Aging Center in Scottsdale, Arizona, with the laboratory testing outsourced to Genova Diagnostics in Asheville, North Carolina. Analysis was performed according to Genova Diagnostics’ standard procedures. The laboratory (Genova Diagnostics) was blind as to if any and which chelating agent was present in the testing process, both at baseline and during zeolite intake. The primary measure to assess the effectiveness of each zeolite preparation was a urinalysis test to record the excretion levels of each participant for twenty different heavy metals. The secondary measure to assess the safety of the powdered zeolite preparation was a blood test to evaluate any changes in the blood count and chemistry, liver and/or kidney function. All participants were placed on an all-seafood restricted diet for a week prior to the trial and during the time of the trial, until they completed all urine measurements for heavy metals. This measure was taken as a control in order to prevent any new contamination that might alter the excretion rates between participants. All participants received a complete blood count and comprehensive metabolic panel as a baseline assessment prior to onset of the trial. This measure was taken to compare results after the consumption of zeolite to assess safety. Each participant received a six hour timed urine collection and analysis for heavy metals as a baseline to assess the levels of metals their body is able to excrete without the help of any chelating agent. For the primary outcome, Group A (10 participants) was tested only on the powdered zeolite preparation (Zeolite Pure by ZEO Health), and Group B (10 participants) was tested first on a liquid preparation, either oral drops (Natural Cellular Defense by Waiora) or oral spray (ACZ Nano Extra Strength by Results RNA), and then on the powdered zeolite preparation (Zeolite Pure by ZEO Health). Both groups were compared to each other when tested on the powdered preparation for the same amount of time, making Group A the control for this portion of the trial. Since all participants took some form of zeolite, the only true control was the individual measurements before and after consumption of any of the zeolite preparations. Group A consumed one scoop (5 grams) of the powdered zeolite preparation (Zeolite Pure by ZEO Health) for 5 days, totaling 5 grams of pure zeolite per day. One scoop was the lowest recommended dose from the supplement company (ZEO Health). On the morning of the 6th day participants consumed one scoop (5 grams) of the powdered zeolite preparation and collected all urine for 6 hours. First morning urine was discarded by all participants. All participants received 2 liters of bottled water and were asked to consume it within five hours during the urine collection time. A sample of the collected urine was sent for analysis for heavy metal excretion to Genova Diagnostics. Group B was assigned randomly either the zeolite oral spay (ACZ Nano Extra Strength by Results RNA) or the zeolite oral drops (Natural Cellular Defense by Waiora). Participants consumed the higher recommended dose by the supplement companies (Results RNA and Waiora, respectively) for 5 days. Five participants consumed 8 sprays three times per day of the oral spray preparation, totaling 28.32 milligrams (0.02832 grams) of zeolite per day. The other five participants consumed 10 drops three times per day of the oral drops preparation, totaling 240 milligrams (0.24 grams) per day. On the 6th day, they consumed the same higher recommended dose of their respective zeolite preparation and collected all urine for 6 hours (excluding first moring urine as above). Participants were given two liters of bottled water and asked to consume it within five hours during the urine collection time. A sample of the collected urine was sent to Genova Diagnostics for analysis for heavy metal excretion. After the collection of the urine, Group B received another blood test (complete blood count and comprehensive metabolic panel) to evaluate any impact of the consumed zeolite on the liver, kidney function, and blood chemistry (electrolytes). After the blood test was performed, participants were placed on a seven day break from all zeolite preparations to allow the body to return to the baseline state of excretion. All participants in Group B continued avoiding all seafood to prevent any potential contamination during the trial. Group B, after the seven day break from all zeolite preparations, consumed one scoop (5 grams) of the powdered zeolite preparation (Zeolite Pure by ZEO Health) for 5 days. This was done in order to compare effectiveness of the two different types of zeolite preparations (liquid and powdered) on the same participants, since the powdered zeolite preparation contained a much larger amount of zeolite per dose than either of the liquid preparations. We wanted to observe if the powdered zeolite preparation (Zeolite Pure by ZEO Health) had stronger chelating results on the same participants compared to the other two liquid preparations. On the 6th day, participants consumed one scoop (5 grams) of powdered zeolite and a urine collection test was performed as before (six hours timed, excluding first morning urine and while drinking two litters of water). For the secondary outcome, after the primary outcome observation period ended, all participants (Group A and Group B) were given the maximum recommended dose of the powdered zeolite preparation (Zeolite Pure by ZEO Health) of three scoops per day (15 grams) for total of four weeks to evaluate the safety of the product at the highest recommended dose. All participants were told to report any adverse events or symptoms during the trial. Participants received a blood test at the end of the four weeks to evaluate any potential impact of zeolite on blood chemistry, liver and/or kidney function values. Participants were not tested for excretion of heavy metals during the higher consumption of 15 grams of powdered zeolite. Efficacy We tested the excretion in urine of the following twenty toxic elements: Arsenic, Lead, Mercury, Aluminum, Antimony, Barium, Bismuth, Cadmium, Cesium, Gadolinium, Gallium, Nickel, Niobium, Platinum, Rubidium, Thallium, Thorium, Tin, Tungsten and Uranium. We compared the levels of excretion at baseline (without the use of any zeolite preparations), to the excretion during the use of the zeolite preparations. We also observed the differences in excretion, between the participants who received the liquid preparations [either the oral drops (Natural Cellular Defense by Waiora) or the oral spray (ACZ Nano Extra Strength by Results RNA)], and when the same participants received the zeolite powdered preparation (Zeolite Pure by ZEO Health). We grouped the results of the oral spray and oral drops together in the same data set, since we did not observe any significant differences between the performances of either of the liquid preparations. For each participant, heavy metal, and different zeolite preparation, we calculated the percent difference (increase or decrease) in excretion by comparing the measured levels of the toxic metal in urine without any treatment (baseline) and during treatment with each zeolite preparation (chelating agent), i.e. we calculated the ratio of the difference in excretion divided by the levels of excretion before treatment. However, we note here that the closer the measured levels are to the detection limit, the less reliable the measurement because of different possible sources of variance. For example, a new small contamination from daily consumption of different vegetables can produce a slight increase, or even the standard deviation of the detection of the test can produce a small variance. This may lead to artificially high values of the aforementioned ratio due to low values in the denominator. Therefore, we apply a “cutoff” value on all measurements, such that after the application of the cutoff, no value can be below the cutoff. More formally, if x and y are the measured levels before and after treatment (respectively), and the cutoff is c, then we compute the following regularized ratio r: r = (max(y,c)-max(x,c))/max(x,c). For this trial, we chose the cutoff value to be the median excretion before treatment, across participants. The overall performance of each zeolite preparation per heavy metal across participants was measured in two ways: (a) median percent difference in excretion, and (b) percentage of participants that demonstrated a percent increase in excretion of at least 50% (the % significant in results). In Arsenic we observed a median increase in excretion of 119% in the powdered zeolite (Zeolite Pure by ZEO Health) group with 73.7% of participants showing at least 50% increase in excretion. We observed a median increase in excretion of -8% in the group that received the oral spray (ACZ Nano Extra Strength by Results RNA) or oral drops (Natural Cellular Defense by Waiora) with 0% of participants showing at least 50% increase in excretion. See Figure 1. In Aluminum we observed a median increase in excretion of 43% in the powdered zeolite (Zeolite Pure by ZEO Health) group with 57.4% of participants showing at least 50% increase in excretion. We observed a median increase in excretion of 0% in the group that received the oral spray (ACZ Nano Extra Strength by Results RNA) or oral drops (Natural Cellular Defense by Waiora) with 0% of participants showing at least 50% increase in excretion.
