Clinoptilolite zeolite is a porous aqueous aluminosilicate mineral with high physical, chemical and thermal stability, which has a special surface and high cation exchange capacity. Due to these properties, it has wide applications in various fields of medicine, health and cosmetics. This mineral has a very high capacity to absorb many heavy metals, toxins and some compounds such as ammonium. Due to this feature, as well as high chemical stability in the body, it can act as an important detoxifying agent and reduce oxidative stress, which is a very important factor in many diseases such as cancers and Alzheimer’s.

In addition, numerous studies have shown its positive effects on stimulating the immune system and thus strengthening the immune system as well as balancing the microorganisms of the digestive system. These factors have led to the use of this mineral as a human food supplement in many countries. The important point in this case is the suitability of the selected zeolite and the absence of microbial-chemical and bacterial contamination.

Clinoptilolite can also be recognized as a natural drug carrier for the delivery of some drugs due to its nanometer porous space, chemical and physical stability, as well as gradual release.

Due to its high adsorption and detoxification properties, zeolite can be used in the preparation of various types of face masks, baby powder, sanitary pads, body creams, bath salts, soaps, face scrubs, body and face wash lotions.
