What is Zeolite?
Zeolite is a natural volcanic mineral, which works as a detoxifier for heavy metals and other toxins. It was formed over millions of years when volcano ash settled on alkaline seawater. This resulted in a chemical reaction and created an extremely strong, negatively charged, cavernous compound. The unique negative charge of zeolite allows it to absorb dangerous toxins like a magnet by locking these toxins within its porous tunnels. Many refer to this as a “cage-like structure,” since once zeolite absorbs a toxin, the dangerous substance is locked within the zeolite structure and cannot be broken free. This means that zeolite safely and gentle carry out of the body any toxins it pick up as it travels through the body.
Horses PH
A horse’s body is made up of 70% – 80% water depending on the age. What happens when a body of water’s PH is out of balance? It grows foreign cells where these foreign cells will then thrive. But how does that affect horses? With a horse being made up of 70% – 80% water, “they need a stable pH balance to support optimal digestion and nutrient absorption” because “a low pH in horses is associated with excessive sugar or starch” and “this causes fiber digesting bacteria to die off and release toxins that can damage the cells of the hind gut and cause inflammatory responses, ulcers, and laminitis” (Liversidge).
Acidity in Horses
Going hand and hand with low pH levels, when the pH is low, the horses or animals’ bodies then become acidic. Portney writes “Toxins and/or heavy metals that have built up overtime are usually the main cause for the body to become acidic, although other things can come into play like processed feed or stress. In an acidic environment sickness, bacteria, fungi, parasites, and viruses can thrive. An acidic pH also often causes the immune system to become overwhelmed and too weak.” A balanced pH becomes extremely important when talking about the hindgut. According to Liversidge, “ideal pH level in the hindgut for proper digestion is between 6.5 – 7.0 anything below that for an extended period can be detrimental to the horse.
