Now remember, I am a high school graduate. I did bounce my idea of using Zeolite as part of my protocol for the purpose of cleaning out metals and pathogens from my system off of a professor who studies PD and he thought it was a reasonable idea. So at least not too crazy.
This is what I use. Be careful. Some of the Zeolite they sell is only 90% pure and really not meant for human consumption. This company seems to be legit.

Zeolite Clinoptilolite is Pro-Inflammatory. That's Bad.
I am so stupid. I've been taking something that has probably been making me worse. And I have been evangelizing about it. So many report looked so good, but I was not smart enough to notice the finer details. Zeolite Clinoptilolite modulates immune responses. It up-modulates them (not what I expected).
So many places I read that Zeolite Clinoptilolite is anti-inflammatory. Can't figure out why they say that now. It is a superantigen and amps up the immune response:
sciencedirect.com/science/a... "As superantigens, zeolites are also responsible for the development of local inflammation, in which accumulated macrophages release large quantities of free oxygen radicals (Olanders et al., 2002). Besides reactive oxygen species, activated macrophages release tumor necrosis factor (TNF), which together with other cytokines and calcium compounds stimulates splenic T cells (Pavelic et al., 2002; Hu et al., 2013; Lamprecht et al., 2015)."
In 1984 Korkina et.al. showed that clinoptilolite particles cause hemolysis and macrophage toxicity (Kleiner, et al. 2001). Katic et al. (2006) showed that clinoptilolite can absorb the growth factors in cell media and inhibit the cell proliferation (Rivera, et al. 2005). These studies show that clinoptilolite, a kind of naturally occurring zeolite, has apoptotic, toxic and hemolysitic effects on living cells directly or indirectly. In addition to these investigations, it was found that silicates have the superantigen ability so that they can induce T cell apoptosis and may cause autoimmune diseases. Not only the T cells but also the alveolar epithelial and mesothelial cells can undergo apoptosis.
Both intrinsic and extrinsic pathways may be triggered by silicate particles (Aikoh, et al.1998, Hishumura, et al. 2006, Tomokuni, et al. 1997, Otsuki, et al. 1998, Otsuki, et al. 2000, Otsuki, et al. 2002, Matthew, et al. 2004). Ueki et al. (1994) and Aikoh et al. (1998) showed that silica; silicates and aluminosilicates act as nonspecific immunostimulators (like superantigens) (Aikoh, et al. 1998, Pavelic, et al. 2001). Also Allison et al. (1966) showed that pro-inflammatory macrophages were activated by fibrinogen silicate particulate. Silicates are the substances of which have Si ions in their structure. Clinoptilolite is that kind of substance but there was no any investigations carried out on zeolites or clinoptilolite for their effect on T lymphocyte apoptosis. In this study T lymphocyte apoptosis via clinoptilolite will be investigated, and then the pathways that can take role in apoptosis will be enlightened.
I'm so sorry for going down this path and especially for sharing it with others. This may explain my current issues with seborrheic dermatitis.
