How can Zeo Alpha remove toxic metals such as lead and mercury but not healthy ones such as calcium and magnesium?
Zeolite’s ability to attract and bind different substances is based on the size, shape, and electrical configuration of its molecular cages. Zeolite’s greatest affinity is thought to be with heavy metals, especially mercury, cadmium, lead, and arsenic. Lighter metals such as calcium, magnesium, and phosphorous have smaller ions, and so their affinity to zeolite’s negative charge in order of magnitude is much less. Zeolite will leave minerals such as Calcium, Magnesium and phosphorous at their very best performance levels within the body.
