Since the publication of our books "Natural Minerals, Regulation, and Health" and "Clinoptilolite Zeolite - Silicon Minerals and Health," interest among therapists and even more so among consumers in the health and quality of life-enhancing silicates such as natural zeolite, bentonite/montmorillonite, and silicon dioxide has significantly increased. The trend towards natural remedies indicates, according to various studies, a growing need among broader segments of the population. A reorientation towards remedies is always accompanied by many questions. This also applies to natural zeolite, bentonite, montmorillonite, and silicon dioxide (silicic acid), partly because there are misconceptions about silicates that are spread uncritically and cause uncertainty among many people. Silicates are among the oldest remedies known to humanity.
